  • Sit embedded in the battery, product, and integration program team as the process quality anchor.
  • Track quality action items across the program timeline and drive them to closure.

  • Track root cause analysis and corrective and preventive action closure as part of overall program quality health.
  • Build and review Fault Tree Analysis documents for service diagnosis jointly with the Design Quality and Product Integration Engineers.

  • Keep Fault Tree Analysis documentation updated as new failure modes are learned in the field.
  • Ensure DFMEA, PFMEA, control plans, and checksheets meet IATF 16949 documentation standards.
  • Provide program-level quality status to the Function Lead and NPQ Lead.

Desired Qualifications
