  • Collaborating with cross-disciplinary teams to document, assign, and resolve product non-conformities.
  • Improving detection of non-conformances through quality tools like Control Plans, FMEAs, and statistical methodologies.
  • Implementing metrics to measure process performance and use findings to prioritize audit strategies.
  • Assisting with Quality Management System activities, including updates, corrective actions, and customer/auditor interactions.
  • Training and mentoring peers on quality processes and methodologies.

We're seeking a motivated leader with strong technical expertise and a commitment to quality improvement.

Position requirements include:

  • Bachelor's degree in engineering.
  • Previous experience in a transformer manufacturing environment is strongly preferred.
  • Knowledge of ISO 9001:2015, internal auditing, manufacturing processes, and continuous improvement methodologies.

Must live or be willing to relocate to within a reasonable safe commute to the assigned plant location. Must be authorized to work in the United States for any employer for U.S. based positions. This position is not eligible for sponsorship or immigration assistance.

Skills and competencies include:

  • Strong understanding of electrical and mechanical engineering fundamentals.
  • Expertise in quality tools and statistical analysis.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to lead cross-functional teams.
  • Exceptional organizational and time management skills.
  • Strong communication and reporting abilities.

At Delta Star, you will find more than a job. You will join a team that values people, supports growth, and trusts you to make an impact. Whether you're on the shop floor, in the field, or in the office, you will work alongside talented people to solve meaningful challenges, power communities, and build a rewarding career. With opportunities to learn, advance, and contribute, plus a culture built on respect, teamwork, and work-life balance, Delta Star is a place where you can thrive for the long term.
