- Apply Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma methodologies to improve supplier performance.
- Drive reduction of defects, scrap, rework, and process variation.
Incoming Quality Escalations
- Serve as the escalation point for complex incoming quality control (IQC) issues.
- Support root cause investigations involving suppliers, Operations, and Engineering teams.
- Lead containment, corrective action, and preventive action implementation.
- Coordinate with suppliers to rapidly resolve production-impacting quality concerns.
Supplier Audits & Development
- Perform supplier audits focused on production controls, quality systems, process capability, and operational effectiveness.
- Develop supplier improvement plans based on audit findings and performance data.
- Build collaborative supplier relationships focused on continuous improvement.
- Drive the development of our dock-to-stock program
Operational Quality Support
- Partner with Manufacturing Engineering and Operations teams to improve internal yield and supplier-driven quality performance.
- Analyze quality data to identify recurring issues and improvement opportunities.
- Drive sustainable process improvements across the supply base.

About You

Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience driving process improvement and troubleshooting in manufacturing environments, including injection molding, die casting, stamping/sheet metal fabrication, and coating processes.
