• Work directly with the Authorized Inspector/Authorized Inspection Agency throughout applicable ASME activities.
• Manage corrective actions, audit findings, nonconformances, and follow-up through closure.
• Provide quality program oversight to Engineering, Manufacturing, Operations, and Project Management.
• Review documentation to ensure contractual, regulatory, customer, and quality program requirements are understood and met.
• Maintain approved supplier lists and oversee supplier quality requirements.
• Ensure inspection records, quality records, and nonconformance reports are complete, accurate, and properly maintained.
• Manage customer and field complaint investigations and ensure appropriate resolution and closure.
• Manage personnel qualification and training requirements under the applicable quality programs.
• Ensure required training and qualification activities are scheduled, completed, documented, and maintained.
• Review bids and proposals and provide QA guidance to Program Management, Engineering, and Manufacturing.
• Provide quality oversight for product integration and testing activities, where applicable.
• Monitor the operational integrity and calibration/status of instruments, gauges, and specialized measurement equipment.
• Supervise QC personnel and support the development of a highly qualified, motivated, and accountable quality team.
• Train new and existing employees on applicable quality policies, procedures, and requirements.
• Promote a culture of quality, compliance, continuous improvement, and accountability throughout the organization.
