Position Summary
The JG7 Factory Quality Engineer is an independent contributor who owns module‑level quality execution for their assigned module or work center, driving root‑cause analysis, quality reporting, and structural improvements. In addition to primary responsibilities, the JG7 QE provides leadership across key quality governance areas including leading DRB/MRB reviews, driving performance improvements through SPC analysis, maintaining and updating pFMEAs, and owning MSA / Gage R&R execution for critical measurement systems.
The JG7 QE actively represents the factory during QMM / 6P assessments, leads deployment and compliance of Quality Gates, facilitates 4‑Eye reviews / Quality Circles, and drives consistent Work center Handshakes between upstream and downstream operations. They also maintain and govern Inspection Criteria, while leading end‑to‑end F2F MN (EF, NMQ) investigations and reporting, ensuring systemic issues are escalated, addressed, and translated into preventive actions.
The Factory Quality Engineer interfaces daily with Production Engineering (PE), First Line Support (FLS), Manufacturing, Supplier Quality (SQE), Central Quality, and other cross‑sector partners, acting as the factory’s technical authority for quality process execution. The Factory Quality Engineer displays ownership, acting as the primary point of accountability for work center quality performance, including SPC effectiveness, MN/DN closure, and process risk mitigation.
- Lead DRB / MRB sessions for assigned areas directly tied to Quality, ensuring rigorous root cause validation and driving structural implementation of corrective actions.
- Own SPC performance reviews, including control limit adjustments, capability analysis, and communication of required process improvements; lead factory discussions for assigning CTD/CTQ/CTC Definitions.
