Qualifications

1. Highly qualified Quality Engineer with a specialized focus on industrializing aeronautical products. The ideal candidate will possess a combination of technical expertise and industry knowledge necessary to drive quality initiatives and ensure the successful introduction of new products into production as well as follow up of the quality performance of the product during serial production.
2. The candidate should demonstrate a strong commitment to quality, attention to detail, and a collaborative approach to working with cross-functional teams.
3. Minimum of 5-7 years of progressive experience in quality engineering roles within the aerospace or aeronautical industry, with a focus on product industrialization and new product introductions. Direct experience in quality assurance processes for aeronautical products is essential.
4. Develop and maintain the Quality Assurance Plan (QAP) for each new product introduction, outlining quality objectives, inspection criteria, and acceptance criteria in alignment with Design & customer requirements and industry standards.
5. Collaborate with engineering and design teams to define Critical to Quality (CTQ) parameters for each component and assembly, ensuring that quality characteristics critical to product performance and customer satisfaction are identified and addressed.
6. Generate and maintain documentation related to quality control activities during new product introductions, including inspection reports, non-conformance reports (NCRs), and corrective action plans, to facilitate traceability and compliance with regulatory standards.
7. Knowledge of Aerospace Regulations and Standards: A comprehensive understanding of aerospace regulations and standards, including AS9100.
8. Quality Management Systems (QMS) Implementation: Proficiency in implementing and maintaining Quality Management Systems (QMS) tailored to the aerospace industry. This involves developing Quality Assurance Plans (QAPs), defining quality objectives and metrics, and establishing processes for continuous improvement and regulatory compliance.
9. Statistical Process Control (SPC) and Quality Tools: Expertise in statistical process control (SPC) methods and quality tools such as Six Sigma, Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), Root Cause Analysis (RCA), Design of Experiments (DOE), and other statistical techniques for analysing and improving manufacturing processes.
10. New Product Introduction (NPI): This involves defining critical-to-quality (CTQ) parameters, developing inspection plans, conducting first article inspections (FAI), and implementing quality control processes to ensure product conformance and reliability during the industrialization phase.
