QSC is seeking a Senior Design Quality Engineer to lead early-stage design risk management and reliability planning for advanced electromechanical systems, including PCBA-based products, to empower connection through technology and deliver seamless AV solutions.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering, or related engineering fields.
- 8+ years of industry experience in product quality and development of electromechanical systems.
- Proven leadership in Design FMEA creation, facilitation, and ownership.
- Strong expertise in PCBA design and assembly, DFM/DFT principles.
- Understanding of mechanical design principles, tolerancing, and qualification for new parts and assemblies.
- Hands-on experience compiling detailed technical documentation, including qualification plans, test specifications, and engineering reports.
- PCBA experience in a manufacturing environment
Responsibilities
- Serve as the primary owner of the Design Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (DFMEA) process—initiate, lead, and manage all DFMEA activities, including gathering inputs, identifying potential failure modes, driving cross-functional discussions, assigning severity/occurrence/detection rankings, and ensuring DFMEA outputs are fully integrated into the product design and qualification process.
- Engage with cross-functional teams (Design, Quality, Mechanical, Process, and Systems Engineering) in early product planning and design review stages.
- Lead efforts to gather and analyze lessons learned from similar products and processes, presenting them in design review and risk management meetings.
- Review engineering drawings to ensure all critical design aspects are properly identified, tolerance-checked, and marked for downstream quality control.
- Collaborate with Mechanical Engineering to ensure that key reliability risks are captured, and qualification tests are defined.
- Compile and analyze product reliability data, including failure rate modeling, environmental testing feedback, and field return trends.
- Participate in PCBA design and assembly reviews; ensure manufacturing readiness, DFM/DFT practices, and material stack-ups are considered.
Other
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering, or related engineering fields.
- 8+ years of industry experience in product quality and development of electromechanical systems.
- Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with a proactive and structured problem-solving approach.
- Project leadership experience, being able to lead a meeting and drive the Design Failure Mode Effects Analysis
- Communication: being able to summarize and provide project meeting level communication.
