Quality Engineer

• Evaluate, develop, record and perform failure analysis on electromechanical and soft goods components, subassemblies and systems to identify root cause of failures and propose corrective actions.
• Drive failure analysis to root cause using cross-functional teams as appropriate.
• Collaborate with cross-functional partners to design and implement testing strategies characterizing system performance.
• Perform measurement activities utilizing traditional check gauges, CMM/OMM, X-Ray, CT Scanners and/or microscopes.
• Respond to quality issues with initial investigation, identify and document failures, create visibility in issue tracking system.
• Prepares reports, charts and diagrams to disclose results and highlight areas for further investigation. Develop and publish Quality metric reporting.
• Report failures using defect tracking software. Initiate, review, analyze, update and close quality issues.
• Drive the nonconforming material processes, including Material Review Board, for identification of root cause, documentation and follow through on the closed loop corrective action process.
