Full-time
Senior Quality Engineer Electro-Mechanical Assembly
Job description
Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.
Job responsibilities
- Own electro-mechanical quality across the factory as the technical authority on workmanship and acceptance, from components and sub-assemblies such as motors, harnesses, and mechanisms through final vehicle assembly
- Act as first responder for quality issues on the line: disposition defects, contain suspect product, and drive electro-mechanical nonconformances through MRB to closure
- Lead MRB for electro-mechanical nonconformances and lead containment on high-impact escapes
- Lead root cause investigations on electro-mechanical defects in partnership with engineering, and verify that fixes hold on the line
- Define the electro-mechanical quality metrics and SPC strategy, and work with software teams to build them into production systems and dashboards
- Run build quality reviews with production and engineering leadership, setting priorities based on risk and impact
- Set the inspection and test strategy for electro-mechanical assembly: where to inspect, sample, or error-proof, and when to remove inspection as processes prove capable
- Drive design for quality (DFQ) during new product introduction and design changes so line data and lessons learned shape new components and assemblies before they reach production
