Drive continuous improvement projects to reduce defects, waste and rework (Lean/5S mindset).

Maintain compliant documentation and accurate quality records; support internal audits and procedure optimization.

Support ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 programs and related H&S practices in collaboration with QHSE.
