Drive PFMEAs for all products to be manufactured on the production lines to establish control plans and quality procedures Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Supply Chain, and Product Design to implement design-for-quality (DFQ) and process control strategies that reduce variability and improve manufacturability. Oversee and optimize incoming inspection programs to ensure parts and subassemblies meet quality standards before entering production. Champion reliability improvement and validation testing at end-of-line to prevent downstream failures and quality escapes to the field.
