  • Own FPY, PPM, scrap, rework, and OEE?quality metrics for stator, rotor, and final assembly lines.
  • Ensure robust Control Plan deployment, gage calibration, SPC on CTQs (hairpin welds, insulation integrity, press fits, magnet placement).
  • Monitor and improve EOL test signatures: electrical performance, torque ripple, partial discharge, hipot, run?in vibration/noise.
  • Lead Layered Process Audits (LPA), gemba walks, and containment for non?conformance issues.

Supplier Quality Management (SQE)

  • Manage supplier quality for magnets, laminations, copper, machined parts, castings, adhesives/resins, sensors, and electronics.
  • Conduct supplier audits (VDA 6.3 preferred), approve PPAPs, ensure incoming quality checks, and track supplier PPM/OTD.
  • Drive supplier corrective actions (8D), dual?sourcing risk plans, and cost?of?poor?quality reduction.

Customer Quality & Issue Resolution

  • Act as the primary interface for OEM/Tier?1 customers for all quality matters.
  • Lead customer complaint resolution with 8D, root cause analysis, and permanent corrective actions.
  • Manage warranty data, reliability growth, field returns (tear?down analysis), and customer scorecards.
  • Own customer audits, QBRs, and new program readiness reviews.

Problem Solving & Continuous Improvement

  • Lead structured problem-solving (8D, A3, 5?Why, Fishbone) for line issues and customer complaints.
  • Support Lean, Six Sigma, Kaizen projects focused on yield, scrap, equipment uptime, and process capability.
  • Enable digital quality dashboards, data analytics (FPY, PPM, Cp/Cpk, warranty), and predictive insights.

Leadership & Team Management

  • Lead a team of Quality Engineers, Technicians, Inspectors, and SQE.
  • Define skill matrices, training needs, certification levels, and audit competencies.
