You'll establish metrics for measuring quality performance, support continuous improvement of the Quality Management System, and write program-wide quality planning documentation. Additionally, you'll understand qualification of internal and external manufacturing processes, including PPAP/FAI and inspection methods for aerospace programs, and coordinate with supplier quality engineers. Required qualifications include a Bachelor's degree in Engineering or similar technical field, hands-on experience in engineering, manufacturing, or quality on aerospace vehicles or systems, and working knowledge of aerospace design review and quality management. You must have experience with mechanical manufacturing processes, CAD systems (NX, SolidWorks, CATIA), and analytical skills for data mining and statistical analysis. Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active Secret U.S. security clearance is required. Preferred experience includes composite and metallic airframe manufacturing, 1+ years developing quality systems in complex manufacturing environments, and familiarity with AS9100/AS6500/ISO 9001 standards and methodologies like FMEA and APQP.
