• Ensure quality policies, practices, and procedures are understood and consistently followed across the organization through effective communication, coaching, and stakeholder engagement.
• Develop and deliver quality training programs for manufacturing personnel and serve as the primary point of contact for quality-related matters, helping foster a strong culture of quality throughout the organization.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related technical field, with 5+ years of experience in Quality Engineering within a manufacturing environment.
• Demonstrated experience implementing, maintaining, or managing a Quality Management System (QMS), including compliance with industry standards such as ISO 9001 and AS9100.
