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.
