OR Combination of Education and Experience: A combination of education and experience may be used to qualify for this position as long as the computed percentage of the requirements is at least 100%. To compute the percentage of the requirements, divide your total months of experience by 12. Then divide the total number of completed graduate semester hours (or equivalent) by 18. Add the two percentages. GS-09 Specialized Experience: One year of specialized experience which includes conducting segments of projects related to quality engineering, such as reviewing inspection plans and production facility procedures. Analyzing quality data to identify trends in poor quality and recommending applications of statistical quality control. Participating in the analysis of product or process failures and assisting in the preparation of Product Quality Deficiency Reports.. This definition of specialized experience is typical of work performed at the second lower grade/level position in the federal service (GS-07). OR Education: Master's or equivalent graduate degree or 2 full years of progressively higher level graduate education leading to such a degree in a field which demonstrates the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to do the work of the position, such as Industrial Engineering. OR Combination of Education and Experience: A combination of education and experience may be used to qualify for this position as long as the computed percentage of the requirements is at least 100%. To compute the percentage of the requirements, divide your total months of experience by 12. Then divide the total number of completed graduate semester hours (or equivalent) beyond the first year (total graduate semester hours minus 18) by 18. Add the two percentages. GS-11 Specialized Experience: One year of specialized experience which includes analyzing quality data to determine causes of process variations and initiating corrective actions. Utilizes statistical software for in-depth analysis. Performing failure analysis of products and processes, and recommending modifications for more efficient production. Coordinating with other engineers to ensure quality engineering input is integrated into design criteria. Planning and conducting activities for the development and updating of inspection plans.. This definition of specialized experience is typical of work performed at the second lower grade/level position in the federal service (GS-09). OR Education: Ph.D. or equivalent doctoral degree or 3 full years of progressively higher level graduate education leading to such a degree in a field which demonstrates the knowledge, skills, and abilities necessary to do the work of the position, such as Industrial Engineering. OR Combination of Education and Experience: A combination of education and experience may be used to qualify for this position as long as the computed percentage of the requirements is at least 100%. To compute the percentage of the requirements, divide your total months of experience by 12. Then divide the total number of completed graduate semester hours (or equivalent) beyond the second year (total graduate semester hours minus 36) by 18. Add the two percentages. GS-12 Specialized Experience: One year of specialized experience which includes independently analyzing complex quality data, determining root causes of variations, and auditing corrective actions. Performing complex failure analyses and evaluating vendor-initiated engineering changes, waivers, and deviations. Serving as the technical representative during pre-operational surveys of production lines to ensure acceptable inspection procedures, equipment, and staffing. This definition of specialized experience is typical of work performed at the next lower grade/level position in the federal service (GS-11). Education Basic Requirement: A.
