The Quality Engineer's (QE) quest to elevate quality standards at substrate suppliers is vital for the organization to meet customer expectations in an ultra-competitive IFS environment. We are looking for a supplierfacing Quality Engineer who is a strong communicator and executiondriven leader, capable of proactively assessing quality system gaps, establishing improvement roadmaps, and partnering with suppliers to execute disciplined plans that elevate longterm quality capability and effectiveness.
