Your Mission 

Quality Planning & Compliance 

• Ensure composite manufacturing processes comply with AS9100, ISO 9001, and customer-specific requirements. 

• Support development and maintain inspection plans, quality checklists, and process documentation. 

 Inspection & Verification 

• Oversee completion and compliance of in-process and final inspections of composite layup, curing, machining, and assembly operations though the configured product documentation (Traveler / MWI / IR). 

• Validate conformance to engineering drawings, specifications, and work instructions (Red line process included). 

Nonconformance Management 

• Identification, documentation, and resolution of nonconformances via ERP requirements (NCR/photo documentation/technical and or test reports)  

• Lead investigations of nonconformances and process deviations. 

• Drive effective RCCA/CAPA activities using structured problem-solving tools (8D, Fishbone, FMEA). 

Risk Management 

• Conduct PFMEA and risk assessments for composite manufacturing processes. 

• Implement preventive measures to reduce quality risks and improve reliability. 

Data Analysis & Reporting 

• Analyze quality metrics and trends to identify systemic issues. 

• Prepare detailed reports for internal reviews and customer audits. 

Customer & Supplier Interface 

• Support customer audits and quality reviews. 

• Collaborate with supplier quality to resolve material or process-related quality issues. 

Continuous Improvement 

• Lead initiatives to improve composite manufacturing processes and reduce defects. 

• Support lean and Six Sigma projects to enhance efficiency and quality performance. 

Documentation & ERP Systems 

• Maintain accurate quality records in ERP/PLM systems (e.g., SAP, Teamcenter). 

• Ensure traceability and configuration control for composite components
