I’m an experienced QA Engineer who has worked in manufacturing in the automotive and precision tool industries for the last 15 years in various management and engineering roles.
I have managed 80+ employees, handling their scheduling, training, development, hiring, etc., as well as equipment scheduling, materials scheduling, and purchasing support. I’ve been involved in project, process, and quality engineering, spending a great deal of time creating equipment specifications, sourcing equipment and component vendors and manufacturers, and facilitating the purchase and installation of equipment before focusing on process improvement as a Senior Quality Cost and Delivery Engineer in the automotive industry and Quality Assurance Engineer in the precision tool industry.
I am very familiar with ISO 9001 and have a certificate from SAI Global as a lead management systems auditor. I have led the transition efforts to ISO 9001:2015 in two facilities and supported auditing efforts for ISO 9001, 14001, OHSAS 18001, and TS 16949 in two others. In developing and improving these management systems, I have been involved in a great deal of technical writing to generate all of the necessary compiant documentation. I am also currently working with a client to build an IRCA accredited training program for ISO 45001 OH&S Lead Auditors.
