• Maintain and continuously improve the training program for new analytical methods, ensuring technicians and engineers are fully qualified and methods are executed consistently across sites.
• Partner with the Lab Manager to diagnose and resolve instrument excursions, performance drift, and maintenance issues that impact method reliability.
• Serve as a technical leader in root-cause investigations and corrective-action efforts for production issues, using analytical data to drive problem resolution and prevent recurrence.

What you'll bring:

• 5+ years of quality systems experience in a manufacturing environment
• Advanced understanding of measurement system analysis, sampling plans, hypothesis testing, and calibration
• Structured problem-solving (8D) and analytical skills, including strong technical skills in statistical tools, Design of Experiments (DOE), Process Capability (Cpk, Ppk), etc.
• Ability to work well in a dynamic, fast-paced environment while remaining detail-oriented with strong record-keeping and organizational skills
• Experienced in ISO9001, ISO/TS 16949, APQP, PPAP, SPC is a plus
