Job Description We're looking for an experienced, part-time Quality Manager to join us on a 6–12 month engagement (~20 hours/week), reporting to the VP of Operations. This is an advisory and hands-on role for a seasoned quality professional who wants meaningful, flexible work rather than a full-time leadership position.

Our QMS is well-established, so this role is not about building a system from scratch — it's about applying deep experience to keep it sharp: reviewing for gaps, mentoring our internal quality team, and guiding continuous improvement. A key deliverable is standing up a structured safety program and handing it off cleanly to an internal owner before the engagement ends, with documentation and training that let it run independently afterward.

You'll bring deep technical and quality management expertise built over a long career, and be comfortable operating independently with limited hours on-site. This suits someone who wants to stay engaged in meaningful work — mentoring, advising, and solving hard problems — without the demands of a full-time operating role.

Essential Duties & Responsibilities Serve as senior subject matter expert on the QMS, internal processes, and validation methodology, identifying opportunities to improve quality, efficiency, and throughput

Maintain and continuously improve the existing global QMS, ensuring ongoing ISO 9001 compliance and audit-readiness

Establish a structured safety program (policies, procedures, training framework) and hand it off to an internal owner by the end of the engagement, with full documentation and knowledge transfer

Mentor and develop internal quality (and, where relevant, safety) staff to build lasting in-house capability

Lead or support internal and external quality audits and manage relationships with external quality partners (customers and third parties)
Guide non-conformance management (Quality and Safety) and root-cause-driven closure of CA/PAsAnalyze quality and safety data and advise leadership on trends and recommended actions

Ensure production and development activities conform to current statutory and regulatory requirements

Required Competencies Intimate knowledge of ISO 9001 and the certification/audit process

Deep, demonstrated experience applying quality management principles in an industrial OEM environment

Proven ability to mentor and transfer knowledge to less experienced staff

Self-directed and comfortable operating independently within a part-time schedule

Passion for continuous improvement and internal/external customer satisfaction

Excellent written and verbal communication skills

Position Requirements BS degree (preferably in a STEM field)15+ years of progressive experience in Quality leadership roles
