About us

About the role

As Lead QA Engineer, you’ll be the trusted link between our factories, customers, and material suppliers, ensuring our motors meet the highest standards.

• Leading Voice of Customer (VoC) 8D investigations, verification, and closure for customer issues.

• Conducting on-site verification at contract manufacturer (CM) locations where feasible.

• Overseeing the RMA process from CMs to guarantee effective resolution.

• Taking ownership of issues related to raw materials, proactively working with material suppliers to investigate and resolve supplier-related quality concerns.

• Driving continual improvement initiatives to reduce Parts Per Million (PPM) defect rates.

• Submitting Quality Summary Information (QSI) and Certificates of Conformity (CoC) for CMs.

• Maintaining and safeguarding the integrity of QA records and locations within SAP (DDM Motors).

• Creating and updating Operating Procedures (OPs) and Work Instructions (WIs) for the section.

• Compiling and presenting periodic Customer Quality Performance reports.

We’re seeking a committed quality leader with:

• A Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Quality Assurance, or a related field.

• Solid experience in quality engineering – preferably in motors or electronic manufacturing.
