Opportunity
Step into the world of Kallista and help shape the next generation
of luxury products where precision meets creativity. As part of our New Product
Development group, you’ll get hands-on experience bringing real products to
life, from early design sketches to prototype testing and final validation.
You won’t just watch from the sidelines. You’ll model, build,
test, and problem-solve alongside engineers who turn bold ideas into
high-performance designs. Every day offers a new challenge whether it’s
refining a complex mechanism, improving manufacturing efficiency, or testing
materials that redefine what “luxury” feels like.
At Kallista, we believe great engineering is equal parts
curiosity, collaboration, and craftsmanship. If you love working on products
people interact with every day, enjoy digging into technical details, and
thrive in a fast-moving, design-driven environment, this is your opportunity to
build something extraordinary and have fun doing it.
How You’ll Contribute
Showcase Your
Engineering Curiosity: Apply engineering fundamentals and structured problem-solving to
bring new product ideas to life. Support the development and validation of
components, subsystems, and full assemblies that define innovation in luxury
design. Participate in technical feasibility studies and learn how data-driven
decisions shape product excellence.
Collaborate Across
Disciplines: Work side-by-side with experts in Engineering, Marketing, Quality,
Manufacturing, and Industrial Design. Be part of the conversations that shape
tough decisions, explore trade-offs, and find creative paths forward. Help
transform concepts into manufacturable products that meet the highest standards
of performance and design.
Engage with a Global
Team: Collaborate with
engineers across Kohler’s worldwide Technical Centers and Centers of Excellence
to share insights, support testing, and promote best practices in design
efficiency and component reuse. Gain exposure to how global collaboration
drives innovation and accelerates development.
Drive Continuous
Improvement: Contribute ideas that improve product performance, sustainability,
and process efficiency. Participate in design reviews and testing activities
that push the boundaries of what’s possible. Capture your learnings to
strengthen team knowledge and leave a lasting impact on future products.
SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES
Contribute to real
product innovation: Support the design and
development of new luxury products from early concept through testing and
validation, working alongside engineers who bring ideas to market.
Develop and document
specifications: Help translate customer
insights, regulatory needs, and technical requirements into clear product
documentation under the guidance of senior engineers.
Apply and grow
engineering skills: Use CAD tools to create 3D models, engineering drawings, and
prototypes that support design reviews and performance testing.
Be part of the
problem-solving process: Participate in product testing, data analysis, and root-cause
investigations to enhance design performance and manufacturing efficiency.
Collaborate across
disciplines: Work closely with
design, sourcing, and manufacturing teams to understand how products move from
idea to production.
Share what you learn: Capture insights,
lessons, and design improvements to strengthen team knowledge and continuous
improvement efforts.
