Root Cause Mastery: Direct the execution of Customer Failure Analysis and Supplier Corrective Actions (SCARs). Documentation Control: Set up and maintain rigorous testing documentation and procedural controls across all locations. Team Leadership & Supplier Management Mentorship: Manage and train operating staff on test procedures, approvals, and quality methods; be a champion for change and a teacher of new, more efficient quality practices. Supplier Vetting: Assess our global supply base to ensure their quality capabilities meet Newhaven’s high standards; team with vendors to resolve part-family defects at the source. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Facilitate communication between departments to drive quality initiatives from concept to successful validation.
