Manage Change Management (CM) cases, ensuring all engineering changes are assessed for quality impact, documented appropriately, and closed in a timely manner. Participate in cross-functional APQP activities, including DFMEA, PFMEA, Control Plans, and Process Flow Diagrams to ensure robust product and process design. Support DM activities by reviewing deviation changes, tracking validation status and helping ensure potential quality risks are identified and addressed early in the development process. Coordinate and support process and product validations, including MSA, capability studies, run-at-rate, and production trials leading to SOP. Monitor open quality-related risks and issues within the program and track their closure via structured problem-solving methodologies (e.g. 8D, 5-Why, Ishikawa). Interface with customer quality and engineering teams during program development to ensure expectations are understood, documented, and integrated into the launch process. Lead or support internal Gate Reviews, ensuring all quality deliverables are met before progressing to the next project phase. Prepare and present quality performance data and readiness status during program reviews and management updates. Contribute to continuous improvement by capturing and applying lessons learned from previous programs and product launches. Collaborate with internal departments (engineering, production, logistics, supplier quality) to ensure alignment on program milestones and quality requirements. Support supplier PPAP reviews, incoming part validation, and ensure supplier quality readiness in alignment with program timelines. Ensure all customer portals are monitored for updates to program-specific quality deliverables and requirements during development phases Requirements Educational background and previous experience required for the role. Qualifications and experience Bachelor's degree in a relevant field or equivalent practical experience. Solid grasp of quality management processes, preferably within the automotive or manufacturing sector. Solid understanding of automotive quality systems and standards (e.g., IATF 16949, VDA, APQP).
