  • Expert in automotive quality management standards and processes
  • Proficient in applying IATF 16949 core tools including Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP), Statistical Process Control (SPC), Measurement System Analysis (MSA), Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Production Part Approval Process (PPAP)
  • Self-starter who can manage multiple projects simultaneously and adapt to new challenges within a fast-paced environment

What's in it for you
