  • Strong knowledge of process control methodologies, including SPC (Statistical Process Control) and FMEA.
  • Strong communication and teamwork skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams, including production, design, and supply chain.
  • Ability to work independently in a startup environment where flexibility and multitasking are critical.
