  • Demonstrated technical writing ability, including work instructions, procedures, manuals, test methods, manufacturing documentation, quality records, or regulated release documentation.
  • Experience with supplier quality management, corrective/preventive actions, production support, and cross-functional issue resolution.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and organizational skills, with ability to manage multiple priorities across quality and manufacturing workstreams.
  • Proficiency with ERP, MES, QMS, PLM, production data, or related operational systems; strong Microsoft Excel, data analysis, and documentation skills.

Preferred Qualifications:
