As a Packaging Engineer within the 3CE Operation team, you will play a pivotal role in bringing the brand’s visionary designs to life through innovative packaging solutions, ensuring world-class quality and manufacturing excellence.
[Primary Mission]
Develop packaging and finished goods by defining, approving, and homologating technical concepts, issuing specifications, and ensuring on-time, in-full delivery for all projects — in line with L'Oréal's 7 Design-to pillars: Safety, Quality, Agility, Profitability, Sustainability, Performance, and Experience.
[Key Responsibilities]

On major projects, you will go to suppliers’ production sites to qualify molds, injection/decoration process and FG productions. - Documentation & Specification Management
Define, issue, and maintain all technical documents throughout the product lifecycle — including drawings, pre-specifications, homologation reports, and final specifications — in strict compliance with the Packaging Conception Quality System (SQCP). - Project Performance & Continuous Improvement
Monitor project schedules, proactively flag risks and deviations, support first production runs, contribute to value analysis and optimization initiatives (quality, cost, productivity), and conduct technical and competitor benchmarking surveys.
