What is your experience with quality management systems such as ISO 9001, AS9100, or IATF 16949?

I have experience working with quality management systems such as ISO 9001, AS9100, and IATF 16949. In my previous role as a Supplier Quality Engineer, I was responsible for ensuring that our suppliers met the required quality standards. I conducted audits of supplier facilities and quality management systems to ensure compliance. I also worked closely with cross-functional teams to identify and address supplier-related quality issues. Additionally, I have experience in conducting root cause analysis and leading corrective action processes with suppliers to resolve non-conformances.

In my previous role as a Supplier Quality Engineer, I gained extensive experience working with quality management systems such as ISO 9001, AS9100, and IATF 16949. I played a key role in developing and implementing quality standards and processes for evaluating supplier performance and compliance. This involved conducting thorough audits of supplier facilities and quality management systems to ensure alignment with company and regulatory requirements. I also collaborated closely with cross-functional teams, including engineering, manufacturing, and procurement, to identify and resolve supplier-related quality issues. In addition, I have a strong understanding of statistical analysis and process control methodologies, which I applied to analyze supplier performance metrics and identify improvement opportunities. I have also conducted root cause analysis and led corrective action processes with suppliers to address non-conformances.

Throughout my career as a Supplier Quality Engineer, I have developed a deep expertise in quality management systems, particularly ISO 9001, AS9100, and IATF 16949. I have successfully implemented these systems in multiple supplier organizations, resulting in improved product quality and compliance. For example, I led a project to develop and implement a comprehensive quality management system based on ISO 9001 at a major supplier. This involved conducting a gap analysis, creating detailed process documentation, and training employees on the new system. As a result, supplier quality issues decreased by 25% within the first year. In addition, I have leveraged quality tools such as FMEA, 8D, Root Cause Analysis, and SPC to drive continuous improvement in supplier processes and products. For instance, I used FMEA to identify potential failure modes and develop appropriate controls at a critical supplier, reducing the risk of product defects. I also conducted regular supplier audits to ensure ongoing compliance with quality standards and regulatory requirements. Overall, my extensive experience and success in implementing and utilizing quality management systems make me well-equipped to excel in this role.
