Quality Mechanical Engineer – SPC, ISO 9001, Supplier Audits

Remotely
Full-time
QMS CMM Six Sigma

Precision components for aviation, medical devices, and EV drivetrains cannot fail. You will embed quality at the design, production, and supplier levels, turning reactive fixes into proactive systems that scale.


Responsibilities

- Define, document, and update Quality Management System procedures aligned with ISO 9001 and AS9100 standards.  

- Lead Statistical Process Control (SPC) studies—establish control charts, interpret Cp/Cpk, and recommend data-driven adjustments.  

- Facilitate 8D and A3 root-cause investigations; verify corrective actions through rigorous effectiveness checks.  

- Orchestrate supplier quality audits—schedule, execute, and close out findings using risk-based thinking.  

- Collaborate with Design for Manufacturability teams to embed PPAP and FMEA deliverables early.  

- Calibrate CMMs, gauges, and optical comparators; maintain the metrology database with 100 % traceability.  

- Generate weekly quality metrics dashboards in Minitab or JMP; present insights to cross-functional leadership.  

- Mentor operators in GD&T interpretation, gage R&R, and Lean Six Sigma techniques.  

- Champion continuous-improvement kaizen events that cut scrap and warranty returns by double digits.  


Required Skills

- Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline.  

- 5+ years in manufacturing quality for aerospace, automotive, or medical devices.  

- Hands-on proficiency with SPC, PPAP, PFMEA, and control plans.  

- Proven track record leading 8D, 5 Whys, and Ishikawa root-cause sessions.  

- Working knowledge of ISO 9001 and AS9100 clauses, audit cycles, and documentation.  

- Advanced user of Minitab or JMP for statistical analysis and DOE.  

- Solid understanding of GD&T per ASME Y14.5.  

- Comfort with CMM programming, surface-plate inspections, and handheld metrology.  

- Excellent written and verbal communication; clear, concise, data-centric.  


Preferred Skills

- Six Sigma Green or Black Belt certification.  

- Experience integrating Quality 4.0 tools—SPC software, real-time dashboards, and IoT sensors.  

- Exposure to APQP within IATF 16949 environments.  

- Familiarity with medical device QSR (21 CFR 820) or FDA Part 11 e-record protocols.  


Tools You’ll Use

- Minitab, JMP, QMS platforms (ETQ, MasterControl).  

- CMMs (Zeiss, Mitutoyo), optical scanners, laser trackers.  

- Cloud-based SPC dashboards, Jira for CAPA tracking, MS Power BI for visualization.  


Why This Role Matters

Flight-critical brackets, implantable housings, EV inverters—none can ship with doubt. Your analytical lens, statistical rigor, and supplier stewardship will build unshakable confidence in every lot released.
