Summary

As a Quality Engineer (QE) in Capital Equipment, you will oversee low-volume, high-complexity assets where every machine represents a massive, serialized investment.

Serving as the vital link between Engineering, Production, and the Customer, your mission is to establish the quality frameworks that guarantee each custom-built machine delivers peak reliability under intense industrial demands. In this role, you will champion root-cause investigations, manage high-value supplier quality, and spearhead the APQP (Advanced Product Quality Planning) process for new equipment rollouts.

• Framework Development: Build and deploy custom Control Plans and Inspection Test Plans (ITP) designed for intricate mechanical and electrical systems.
• Standards Definition: Translate customer specifications and engineering schematics into clear Critical-to-Quality (CTQ) parameters.

Advanced Problem Solving & Root Cause Analysis

• Failure Investigations: Direct 8D, 5-Why, and Fishbone analyses to resolve critical equipment failures or performance anomalies.
• Design Collaborations: Partner with Design Engineering to initiate Engineering Change Requests (ECRs) when issues trace back to design vulnerabilities rather than production errors.
• Reliability Analytics: Evaluate field failure reports and warranty data to identify and address long-term reliability trends.

Validation & Testing Oversight

• Acceptance Protocols: Define and govern protocols for both Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) and Site Acceptance Testing (SAT).
• Metrology Management: Supervise the calibration schedule for advanced plant metrology equipment, including CMMs and laser trackers.
• Documentation Compliance: Audit and sign off on customer-facing "Build Books" (the definitive documentation package delivered with each asset).

Knowledge/Skills/Competencies

• Experience: 3 to 5+ years of Quality Engineering experience, specifically within project-based or engineer-to-order (ETO) manufacturing sectors.

• Technical Skills:

  • Proficient with ERP platforms (SAP, Oracle) and statistical analysis software (Minitab, JMP).

  • Deep understanding of metallurgy, welding codes (AWS/ASME), and electrical safety standards.

• Soft Skills: Exceptional cross-functional influence, with the resolve to champion a "quality-first" mindset even during tight production and shipping windows
