Position Overview:

The Quality Manager is responsible for leading and managing the quality assurance and quality control functions to ensure that all products, manufacturing processes, and operational activities meet customer requirements, aerospace industry standards, regulatory requirements, and company quality objectives.

Develop and execute quality strategies aligned with business objectives, customer expectations, and operational performance targets.
Establish and monitor quality objectives, key performance indicators (KPIs), and departmental budgets.
Promote a culture of accountability, continuous improvement, and zero-defect manufacturing.
Provide leadership and guidance to quality engineers, inspectors, auditors, and technicians.

Quality Management System and Regulatory Compliance

Manufacturing Quality Assurance and Control

Oversee incoming inspection, in-process inspection, final inspection, and product release activities.

Establish and maintain inspection plans, sampling plans, control plans, and risk-based quality controls.
Ensure appropriate use and control of calibrated measurement equipment, gauges, and testing systems.
Monitor manufacturing performance to identify process variation, recurring defects, and opportunities for improvement.
Ensure nonconforming materials and products are properly identified, segregated, documented, dispositioned, and controlled.
Oversee first article inspection activities in accordance with AS9102, where contractually or otherwise applicable.

Corrective and Preventive Action

Lead root cause analysis and corrective action investigations for internal defects, customer complaints, supplier issues, and audit findings.
Implement and monitor corrective and preventive actions using methods such as 8D, 5 Whys, fishbone analysis, and failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA).
Verify corrective action effectiveness and prevent recurrence of quality issues.
Analyze scrap, rework, rejection rates, escapes, and warranty or return data to identify systemic problems.
Drive measurable improvements in first-pass yield, process capability, and cost of poor quality.

Supplier Quality Management

Manage supplier quality performance and supplier qualification, approval, and monitoring processes.
Oversee supplier audits, incoming material issues, corrective actions, and supplier development initiatives.
Collaborate with Supply Chain and Procurement to ensure suppliers meet aerospace quality and delivery requirements.
Evaluate supplier risk and monitor performance using quality scorecards and performance metrics.
Ensure appropriate controls for externally provided processes, materials, components, and special processes.

Customer and Stakeholder Relations

Serve as the primary quality contact for customers, auditors, certification bodies, and applicable regulatory authorities.
Manage customer complaints, product escapes, quality notifications, and corrective action responses.
Support customer source inspections, product acceptance activities, and quality reviews.
Communicate quality risks, performance trends, and improvement plans to senior leadership.
Partner with Engineering and Operations to resolve drawing, specification, process, and product conformity issues.

Continuous Improvement and Operational Excellence

Lead continuous improvement initiatives using Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, statistical process control (SPC), and other problem-solving methodologies.
Implement risk-based thinking, process controls, and preventive measures to improve manufacturing consistency.
Reduce scrap, rework, inspection costs, and nonconformance rates while improving production efficiency.
Use data analytics and trend analysis to identify opportunities for process optimization.
Participate in new product introduction, process validation, production readiness, and manufacturing transfer activities.
