• Continuous Improvement: Drive product and process optimization initiatives using Kaizen methodologies.

1. DESIGN ASSURANCE & NEW PRODUCT INTRODUCTION (NPI)

• Prevention & Requirements: Define quality requirements (design, production, installation) and mitigate risks early in the lifecycle by leading DFMEA and supporting process PFMEA.
• Active Design Reviews: Participate in technical Design Reviews, providing critical input on the reliability, manufacturability, and testability of electronics, including firmware and software.
• Validation & Development: Partner with R&D to support debug cycles, alpha/beta testing, and the development of new electronic components.

1. FAILURE ANALYSIS & SUPPLIER QUALITY

• Root Cause Analysis: Oversee field and assembly failure analysis, driving root-cause identification using Lean Six Sigma methodologies (e.g., 8D, 5 Whys, Ishikawa).
• CAPA & Resolution: Coordinate and monitor the effectiveness of containment and corrective actions (CAPA), aligning R&D, Operations, Technical Support, and Supply Chain.
