• Develop and maintain dashboards, KPIs, and trend analyses used for operational reviews and Management Review inputs.
• Identify, assess, and mitigate risks within production and support processes using documented risk tools (e.g., PFMEA, risk registers, control plans).
• Develop, implement, and maintain Quality Plans and control strategies based on customer, regulatory, and internal requirements.
• Drive Root Cause Corrective Actions (RCCA), ensuring actions are implemented, documented, and verified for effectiveness.
• Ensure Quality Assurance through defect prevention via standardization, training support, process validation, and built-in quality methods.
• Implement Quality Control activities to detect nonconforming outputs through inspections, testing, monitoring, and final verification.
• Support control of nonconforming outputs, including MRB participation, rework verification, and disposition documentation.
• Support internal audits, corrective actions, and continuous improvement activities related to assigned processes.
• Maintain quality-related documented information and records to ensure traceability, data integrity, and audit readiness.
• Escalate quality risks, systemic issues, or compliance concerns to Quality leadership as appropriate.

Key Deliverables

• Documented Quality Plans and Control Plans aligned with customer, regulatory, and ISO 9001 requirements.
• Risk assessments and mitigation actions for production, process, and change activities.
• RCCA documentation with verified effectiveness and trend analysis.
• KPI dashboards and quality performance reports supporting operational and Management Reviews.
• Inspection, test, nonconformance, and verification records demonstrating product conformity.

Decision-Making Authority

• Review and approval of deviation requests in accordance with established procedures.
• Definition, improvement, and optimization of quality measurement and monitoring systems within assigned scope.
• Authority to stop or escalate production or process issues that may impact product conformity, safety, or compliance.

Key Cross-Functional Interactions

• Safety: Policy alignment, training support, and reduction of safety-related risks.
• Production: RCCA, Quality Control activities, Quality Audits, MRB participation, rework verification, and process support.
• Engineering: Process improvement initiatives, change management support, and waste elimination.
