Focus on continuous improvement in areas like machining accuracy, coating adherence, and material utilization. Data-Driven Decision Making: Use statistical process control (SPC) and other data analysis tools to identify and validate improvement opportunities. Present clear, actionable insights to leadership and stakeholders. Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work across disciplines including quality, engineering, TVA suppliers, and operations to implement solutions and ensure alignment on quality improvement projects. Technical Reporting: Develop and present technical reports detailing COPQ performance, corrective action progress, and continuous improvement initiatives. Ensure that all corrective actions are tracked and closed in a timely manner. Lean and Six Sigma Implementation: Apply Lean Manufacturing, Six Sigma, and other advanced problem-solving techniques to eliminate waste and drive operational excellence.

Qualifications You Must Have:

Qualifications: Bachelor’s degree in Manufacturing Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or a related field. 4+ years of experience in a manufacturing environment with a focus on COPQ reduction, scrap minimization, or process improvement.  Strong background in machining, coatings, or surface treatment processes, with a thorough understanding of manufacturing tolerances, material behaviors, and production constraints. Proven ability to lead technical investigations, conduct root cause analysis, and drive implementation of corrective actions in a manufacturing environment. Experience with process control, statistical analysis, and using tools such as SPC, PFMEA, and DOE. Familiarity with Lean Manufacturing and Six Sigma methodologies, with a track record of applying them to reduce defects and improve process efficiency. Strong technical communication skills for reporting out on COPQ metrics and presenting data-driven solutions to leadership and stakeholders.
