Quality Engineer

General Purpose

The Manufacturing Quality Engineer (MQE) ensures stable, capable, and compliant production processes by driving preventive quality, structured problem solving, and robust governance of QBD(Quality before Delivery), NC (Non‑Conformance) handling, and digital quality systems. The role strengthens product quality, reduces CoPQ (Cost of Poor Quality), and supports NPI (New Product Introduction), qualifications, and continuous improvement across the value chain.

• Implement preventive process controls including PFMEA (Process Failure Mode and Effects
  Analysis), Control Plans, SPC (Statistical Process Control), MSA (Measurement System
  Analysis), confirmations, layered audits, and containment gates.
• Maintain and update PFMEA and Control Plans to reflect process risks, mitigations, and
  capability.
• Verify process stability and capability through data analysis, audits, and confirmation checks.
  NC Handling, Containment & Governance
• Lead rapid containment for supplier, internal, and customer NCs to protect downstream
  operations.
• Govern QBD Levels 1–2, ensuring proper escalation, documentation, and closure.
• Verify effectiveness of corrective actions and ensure sustainable implementation.
• Review and evaluate special NCs for NCTECH escalation
• Audit NC Management systems and ensure compliance with QMS (Quality Management System)
  requirements.

• Lead and facilitate 8D, Six Sigma, and 5-Why root cause analysis.
• Define corrective and preventive actions that eliminate recurrence.
• Ensure cross-functional alignment and timely closure of actions.
• Calibration, Tooling & Measurement Systems
• Ensure adherence to the calibration program (Enterprise Asset Management) for tooling and
  measuring instruments.
• Confirm measurement system capability through MSA and periodic verification.

• Assess operator competence levels and support reinforcement training for elevated NC/defect
  areas.
• Coach standard work, visual management, and quality behaviors on the shop floor.
• Drive CoPQ reduction through preventive quality and structured coaching.
• Prioritize and lead CI/Kaizen activities with a focus on preventive quality and defect elimination.
• Analyze CTQ (Critical to Quality) and process data to identify trends and improvement
  opportunities.

• Integrate digital quality tools into the QMS, including NC, test, and traceability systems.
• Ensure accurate, timely, and complete data for decision-making and reporting.

• Support Change Requests (CRs), product qualifications, and introduction of new products.
• Collaborate with Engineering, NPI, and Production to ensure quality readiness for new processes
  and technologies.
• Apply blade construction and structural knowledge to support qualification and release.

• Communicate quality risks, findings, and improvement actions clearly to operators, technicians,
  and leadership.
• Present data, trends, and recommendations to cross-functional teams and stakeholders.
• Provide training on CTQ, QDA (Quality Data Analysis), and quality systems.

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related technical field; equivalent experience considered.
• 5+ years of experience in manufacturing quality, process engineering, or similar roles.
• Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt preferred;
  Lead Auditor certification preferred.
• Strong knowledge of PFMEA, Control Plans, SPC, MSA, and structured problem solving
  (8D/DMAIC).
• Ability to analyze product and process data using databases, spreadsheets, and analytical tools.
• Strong communication, facilitation, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
