Join us and take your career to the next level

As a Customer Quality Engineer, you'll be responsible for promoting customer satisfaction by ensuring that product quality consistently meets customer requirements and by communicating effectively with customers. This involves serving as the main point of contact for customer quality complaints, inquiries, and issues. The role requires leading problem‑solving efforts using standard methodologies like 8D, 5 Whys, or Six Sigma to investigate and resolve customer issues. Furthermore, the CQE drives internal processes to meet customer‑specific quality requirements and industry standards. Ultimately, the position is crucial for leading problem‑solving, driving continuous improvement, and ensuring a positive customer quality experience.

What Are Your Key Responsibilities

• Customer Quality Management and Communication: Serve as the main point of contact for customer quality issues, ensuring product quality meets requirements, and communicating complaint status, investigation findings, and corrective actions in a timely manner.
• Root Cause Analysis and Problem‑Solving: Lead cross‑functional teams using standard problem‑solving methodologies (e.g., 8D, 5 Whys, Six Sigma, DMAIC) to investigate and resolve customer issues and complaints.
• Corrective Action and Reporting: Manage Customer Quality Service Requests (QSR) to ensure every customer QSR is followed through with effective Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPA), and prepare customer‑required quality reports and trend analysis for management and customers.
• Continuous Improvement and Compliance: Drive continuous improvement in the end‑to‑end product lifecycle process, and drive internal processes to meet customer‑specific quality requirements and relevant industry standards.
• Auditing and Facilitation: Lead and facilitate audits, support product and process audits at manufacturing facilities, and chair Quality or Tier meetings to update on customer quality trends.
• Stop‑Ship Authority: Possess the authority and responsibility to stop shipments of non‑conforming products to prevent defects from reaching the customer.

What We Offer You

“Green business is good business – it’s not just a slogan; we’re investing in fossil‑free steel and real change.”

• Rewards that truly count: We offer meaningful development opportunities through varied assignments, fair and gender‑neutral pay, and flexible working conditions — all within a culture that values your growth and celebrates success.
• Safety that moves us forward: Build your career with a company rooted in safety since the 1940s, ensuring stability and an environment that empowers you to speak and be heard.
• Purpose that drives change: You'll contribute to solutions that transform global trade, creating environmental and operational innovations. You'll be in the driver's seat of ideas, developing digital technologies that set industry standards and position us as the forerunner.
• People who move together: You'll collaborate with people who build lasting relationships through global expertise, connections, and a commitment to sustainability.

Become part of our global network
