Global Cutting Technology Expert
As Global Cutting Technology Expert, you are Cartamundi’s global authority on high-speed automated die cutting/ punching, high precision slitting, and advanced blanking/stripping technologies.
Remote-based in Europe or the Americas and reporting to the Vice President Industrial Innovation & R&D, you will define and safeguard our global cutting standards, accelerate innovation across all cutting converting processes, and ensure worldclass precision in cut-to-print registration, crease quality, dimensional stability, and edge integrity.
You will work closely with our global manufacturing network, engineering, and R&D teams to evaluate new technologies optimize processes, and guide installations and trials across our sites and suppliers. You will be recognized as the technical authority in cutting and converting, comfortable operating at both machine level and global-standards level.
This role is global in scope and requires up to 50–60% international travel. You will have a globally visible expert role with direct exposure to leadership, production sites, and suppliers worldwide – travel is integral to influence, not oversight alone.
While deep expertise in cutting technologies is essential, the success of this role depends equally on curiosity, innovation, and the ability to challenge the status quo. We are looking for an expert who brings new ideas, pilots unconventional approaches, and constructively challenges the organization to test and adopt better ways of working. Solid knowledge of packaging and converting environments is critical to ensure innovations are practical, scalable, and value-creating.

Your profile:
You are a seasoned specialist with a strong technical background in high‑precision cutting and converting processes.

You are motivated by technical excellence, continuous improvement, and the opportunity to contribute to global standards within a complex, multisite environment.
You bring the following qualifications and strengths:
Additional nice-to-have skills: Experience with automation, robotics, inline/AI‑based inspection systems, environmental controls for substrate stability, or security/tamper‑evident cutting solutions.
