Advanced Quality Planning Engineer
Your Job
As an AQP Engineer, you will partner closely with cross-functional Product Development teams-including Product Design, Manufacturing Integration, Process Engineering, Supplier Quality, and Operations-to drive flawless product launches.
You will lead Advanced Quality Planning activities that proactively identify and mitigate risk while ensuring products meet customer expectations for Quality, Delivery, and Cost.
This role combines technical problem-solving, project leadership, and quality engineering expertise to support successful new product introductions and continuous improvement initiatives in a fast-paced global manufacturing environment.
Work Arrangement:
This is an on-site role requiring five days per week in the office.
This role involves working with global teams and suppliers in Asia, so you'll occasionally join early morning or evening meetings - about two to three times each week.
We value your time and allow flexible schedule to balance these commitments.
Quarterly travel to Asia is part of the job, with trips typically lasting up to two weeks.
