Design Quality Engineer

We are seeking a hands-on Design Quality Engineer to support product quality, root cause investigation, and corrective action implementation for fuel cell components and systems. This role is focused on closing the loop between manufacturing, quality, and design engineering by leading Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA/CAR) and driving design improvements based on production and field performance. The ideal candidate has a strong technical foundation and enjoys working across functions-combining data analysis, problem-solving, and hands-on investigation to improve product reliability and manufacturability in a 24/7 production environment. CAPA / Root Cause Leadership:

• Lead root cause investigations for product nonconformances, production issues, and field failures
• Utilize structured methods (5 Whys, Fishbone, DOE, 8D, Six Sigma tools) to identify root causes
• Drive CAPA/CAR to closure

Design Quality & Continuous Improvement:

• Translate production and quality issues into design improvements (ECR/ECOs)
• Evaluate tolerance stack-ups, materials, and failure modes (FMEA/DFM)
• Drive systemic improvements to reduce repeat failures

Manufacturing & MRB Support:

• Support MRB/disposition decisions
• Clarify specifications and support deviation decisions

Supplier Quality Interface:

• Support supplier nonconformances and corrective actions
• Partner with supply chain on technical issues

Data Analysis & Collaboration:

• Support analysis of scrap, yield, and field performance data
• Collaborate across Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, Procurement

• Education: BS degree in Mechanical or Materials Engineering or relevant discipline.
