  • Influence and support decision-making processes that reconcile the differing priorities and workflows of MRO and production teams.
  • Train and mentor internal teams to build capabilities that support a shift towards a production mindset while maintaining quality rigor.
  • Review and validate product non-conformances, dispositions, quality procedures, and engineering requirements, ensuring alignment with both production and MRO regulatory frameworks.
  • Perform detailed analysis to evaluate product, process, and operational quality against QMS requirements, contract obligations, and government regulations.
  • Lead root cause analysis efforts for process non-conformances, collaborating with technical experts to implement sustainable corrective actions.
  • Foster strong cross-functional relationships across teams to support integrated quality objectives.
