What You Will Do Drive mechanical quality planning activities across all phases of New Product Introduction (NPI), ensuring robust design and manufacturing processes from concept through production launch. Conduct detailed mechanical design reviews of CAD models, drawings, specifications, tolerances, materials, interfaces, and engineering changes (ECNs) to identify and mitigate product quality risks. Assess dimensional and tolerance-related risks, including drawing requirements, tolerance stack-ups, fit/function, measurement feasibility, and capability considerations. Perform design-for-manufacturability (DFM) assessments for mechanical parts (metal, plastic, and seal components, including machining, welding, injection molding, fabrication, and related manufacturing processes). Lead and support APQP deliverables, including DFMEA, PFMEA, Control Plans, process validation, and PPAP activities, ensuring mechanical design risks are effectively translated into manufacturing controls. Partner with Design Engineering, suppliers, and other cross-functional teams to establish robust mechanical requirements, critical-to-quality characteristics, inspection criteria, and acceptance methods. Support early identification and mitigation of product and process risks across the development lifecycle. Collect and analyze quality and process data using statistical methods to evaluate capability, identify trends, and drive risk-reduction and improvement actions. Lead root cause analysis, implement corrective and preventive actions using structured problem-solving methodologies (e.g. 8D). Act as a subject matter expert (SME) for mechanical quality and manufacturability, providing cross-functional guidance and supporting continuous improvement of quality planning practices.
