As our Sr. Quality Assurance Engineer, you'll be the guardian of greatness, the defender of excellence, and the superhero of standards Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to establish a set of activities that will make our quality requirements shine brighter than a diamond in a goat's... well, you know. You'll be identifying which activities are the real MVPs (Most Valuable Processes) and ensuring we stick to them like glue sticks to, well, everything. This includes analysis, reviews, audits, demonstrations, inspections, testing, and metrics to ensure our systems are as capable as a Swiss Army knife and as controlled as a Jedi master. We're looking for a proactive quality leader who can drive lean methodologies and behaviors faster than a Formula 1 car

Responsibilities:

Your quest is to provide quantitative and qualitative reporting that's so good, it'll make various functions and levels in the enterprise stand up and applaud. Here's what you'll be juggling (metaphorically, of course - we don't actually expect you to juggle... unless you want to):

• Be the ringmaster of our audit circus, ensuring internal, external, and 3rd party audits (ISO9001, AS9100, ISO14001, OHSAS18001, and others) are completed on schedule. No clowning around
• Channel your inner Sherlock Holmes to establish and ensure effective root cause analysis and closed-loop corrective action updates in various databases. It's like solving a mystery, but with fewer deerstalker hats and more spreadsheets.
• Become the David Copperfield of quality indicators, making critical-to-quality (CTQ) data appear out of thin air (well, not really, but you get the idea). Present this magic show of metrics to senior staff members and watch their jaws drop
• Be the customer's BFF by understanding their requirements and ensuring compliance through root cause corrective action planning and implementation. It's like being a therapist for our processes
• Transform into the Pied Piper of quality tools, leading various departments to effectively deploy 8D, 5 Why, FMEA, Control Plans, and 7 QC Tools. Your tune? The sweet melody of continuous improvement
• Become the guardian of the Change Management Review Process, ensuring requirements are as fully identified and validated as a celebrity's Twitter
