- Drive risk management and design quality efforts by facilitating activities such as DFMEA, failure investigations, risk assessments, and engineering change reviews.
- Monitor and analyze product performance data, including field trials, post-market feedback, customer complaints, and reliability metrics, translating insights into actionable improvements.
- Support manufacturing readiness and product validation through design reviews, process controls, PPAP activities, audits, and design transfer activities to ensure products are delivered with the highest standards of quality.
- Lead continuous improvement initiatives and KPI tracking, using data-driven approaches to improve product quality, process effectiveness, and customer satisfaction.
What We're Looking For
- Bachelor’s degree in Quality Management, Engineering, or a related technical field.

- ASQ certification as a Certified Quality Engineer (CQE), Certified Quality Auditor (CQA), Certified Quality Manager (CMQ/OE), or equivalent, with a strong understanding of ISO 9001 and/or IATF 16949 and the ability to apply quality standards throughout the product lifecycle.
- Strong knowledge of quality engineering principles, including statistical analysis, root cause investigation, reliability methods, risk assessment, and quality data analysis.
- Excellent communication, collaboration, and project prioritization skills, with the ability to influence cross-functional teams and manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
