Responsibilities

• Review and disposition nonconforming material in accordance with customer, regulatory, and internal requirements.
• Evaluate product against engineering drawings, specifications, GD&T requirements, and customer standards.
• Lead Root Cause Corrective Action (RCCA) investigations related to manufacturing, inspection, supplier, and process-related non-conformance.
• Conduct technical investigations involving machining, inspection, tooling, fixtures, assembly, and special process issues.
