  • Provide technical guidance to Quality Technicians on sampling plans, laboratory testing, test method execution, data integrity, documentation, equipment readiness, and escalation of abnormal results.
  • Investigate and manage nonconforming batches, finished products, customer complaints, internal quality alerts, holds, rework, and disposition decisions in partnership with Operations and Procurement.
  • Lead root cause analysis and corrective/preventive action activities using structured problem-solving tools such as 8D, 5 Why, fishbone analysis, FMEA, SPC, MSA, and control plans.
  • Assess critical-to-quality gaps, determine root causes, build business cases for improvement opportunities, and implement controls to measure, monitor, and sustain results.
  • Partner with Engineering, Maintenance, Operations, EHS, and IT/OT on equipment changes, process changes, controls updates, ABU implementation or upgrades, instrumentation selection, calibration readiness, interlock checks, and production release activities.
  • Support qualification and validation activities, including DQ, IQ, OQ, PQ, blend accuracy validation, repeatability testing, capability studies, and release documentation for new or modified processes and equipment.
  • Maintain readiness for customer, regulatory, internal, and certification audits, including support for IATF-related documentation, reporting, and quality system requirements.
  • Provide training and coaching to production and quality personnel on quality standards, testing requirements, defect recognition, documentation expectations, and escalation procedures.
  • Develop strong cross-functional relationships with site and business leaders to align quality priorities with safety, service, cost, compliance, customer satisfaction, and continuous improvement objectives.
  • Communicate complex technical and quality information clearly to employees, leadership, suppliers, customers, and cross-functional teams.

Required Experience and Skills
  • Strong working knowledge of laboratory testing practices, sampling, inspection, batch documentation, quality records, and production quality support.
  • Working knowledge of solid and liquid testing equipment, calibration practices, basic instrumentation, and troubleshooting of abnormal quality results.
  • Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot complex manufacturing, laboratory, process, and product quality issues using data-driven methods.
  • Experience with Quality Core Tools, including PPAP, FMEA, MSA, SPC, control plans, 8D corrective action, and documented root cause analysis.
  • Ability to interpret specifications, formulas, process requirements, quality standards, and technical documentation.
  • Familiarity with manufacturing process validation, equipment qualification, blend accuracy verification, process capability, and change control.
  • Strong leadership skills with the ability to coach, train, prioritize, and hold teams accountable in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
  • Intermediate to advanced proficiency with Microsoft Office and quality-related data systems; ability to analyze trends, prepare reports, and present findings.
  • Excellent organizational, verbal, written communication, and listening skills, with the ability to communicate technical information to a wide range of audiences.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Science, Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, or a related technical field preferred; equivalent combination of education, technical training, and relevant manufacturing quality experience may be considered.
  • Minimum of 7-10 years of progressive quality experience in a manufacturing environment, preferably including chemical, automotive fluids, blending, packaging, or regulated consumer products.
  • Prior experience managing, leading, mentoring, or providing technical direction to Quality Technicians, laboratory personnel, or production quality teams preferred.
  • Experience supporting audits, customer requirements, corrective actions, continuous improvement projects, and cross-functional technical initiatives.
  • Experience working with automated blending, process controls, instrumentation, or engineering-led equipment/process changes preferred.
  • IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 Certifications are a plus
