The Role
The Quality Operations Manager owns the day-to-day execution of the Quality operating system across launch and sustaining production.

The Quality Operations Manager leads a team of quality engineers, technicians, and inspectors and serves as the operational point of contact for Manufacturing, Engineering, Supplier Quality, Program Management, and Field Quality.
Beyond launch execution, this role is accountable for sustaining quality performance once products are in production, including containment and corrective action management, process capability improvement, control plan discipline, audit readiness, and compliance. Success is measured through on-time quality deliverables, timely issue resolution, and achievement of warranty and field performance targets.

- Ensure quality deliverables are executed on schedule, including Quality Control Plans, inspection standards, gauge readiness, and measurement systems.
- Drive Clear-to-Build readiness and change management execution in partnership with Manufacturing, NPI, Supplier Quality, and Incoming Quality teams.
- Lead process capability and continuous improvement activities and deploy new processes and standards that improve product quality performance.
- Maintain audit, compliance, and QMS readiness, including documentation control, non-conformance management, corrective actions, and audit support.
- Facilitate cross-functional reviews and resolution of open plant quality issues.
- Partner with Program Management and Technical Quality Engineering to maintain alignment to the Single Quality Agenda and product quality priorities.
- Manage budget planning, resource allocation, and tooling/equipment requirements for the Quality Operations organization.
- Monitor daily operations and process performance to identify quality concerns before they impact customers.
- Ensure compliance with applicable industry standards, including ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and AS9100 where applicable.
- Utilize data analytics, dashboards, and key performance indicators to drive operational quality decisions.
