Job Description Summary

Job Description

Responsibilities

• Plan coordinate and execute the quality aspects of product transfer and manufacturing processes including the transition of machining operations for complex aerospace parts between production sites or into new lines. Oversee pilot runs process validations and ramp-up activities ensuring minimal disruption and full alignment with aerospace quality standards.
• Develop and implement comprehensive quality plans specifically tailored for transfer activities defining transfer objectives milestones and metrics. Ensure that transfer projects adhere to organizational timelines and aerospace industry requirements.
• Coordinate thequalification of processes to GE Aerospace requirements ensuring compliance with customer specifications and industry standards
• Monitor the quality of transferred processes and products conducting audits and inspections before during and after transfer to ensure compliance with GE Aerospace procedures and standards such as AS9100 and NADCAP. All product and process qualifications must be executed in strict accordance with GE Aerospace requirements ensuring that every aspect of the transfer process aligns with customer-specific guidelines and expectations.
• Develop and overseeFirst Article Inspection Reports (FAIRs) per AS9102for transferred or newly launched products. Validate process capability throughMSA gage R&R capability studies (Cp Cpk) and control plans.
• Act as the primary liaison between engineering manufacturing quality teams suppliers and customers throughout the transfer process. Communicate transfer status quality performance and risk mitigation plans to all stakeholders.
• Identify risks associated with product and process transfers including those unique to aerospace machining and develop strategies to address and mitigate them ensuring continuity and compliance. ConductPFMEAs and risk assessmentsto mitigate risks associated with machining special processes and NDT transfers.
• Lead efforts to standardize and optimize manufacturing and quality processes as they are transferred driving continuous improvement and leveraging lessons learned to enhance future projects.
• Maintain rigorous documentation throughout the transfer ensuring all process changes validations and quality records meet aerospace regulatory standards and GE Aerospace requirements for product and process qualification.
• Coordinate training for staff at receiving sites on new or transferred processes emphasizing quality control in machining and aerospace-specific requirements.

Required Qualifications
