How will you make an impact?
We are launching a new manufacturing site in Salisbury, NC focused on server systems, racks, and liquid-cooled infrastructure products.
- We are seeking a Supplier Quality leader with proven results standing up supplier quality at a facility from ground zero—creating the processes, developing the team, qualifying suppliers, and driving stable ramp to volume.
- You will lead supplier quality strategy and execution across electrical and fluid handling supply chains.
- You will also manage a team of Incoming Quality Inspectors, establish robust incoming controls and escalation pathways while partnering closely with Engineering, NPI, Operations, and Program Management.
What will you do?
New Site Build-Out (Ground Zero)
- Stand up the Supplier Quality function for a new facility: governance, SOPs, templates, and operating cadence.
- Establish and deploy PPAP-based supplier readiness expectations aligned to customer requirements and internal standards.
- Build a scalable model for supplier onboarding, qualification, risk tiering, and ongoing supplier performance management.
Supplier Qualification, Audits & PPAP Execution
- Lead supplier capability assessments and qualification activities (QMS/process audits, special process validation, traceability, calibration, ESD controls as applicable).
- Own supplier PPAP strategy and execution including:
- Design records & change control alignment.
- Process Flow, PFMEA, Control Plan
- MSA/GR&R, capability studies (Cp/Cpk where applicable)
- FAI / dimensional layouts
- Material certs, compliance requirements
- Part Submission Warrant (PSW) approval and supplier readiness sign-off
- Drive supplier corrective actions and verify effectiveness through data and re-validation.
NPI → Ramp → Sustaining for Servers, Racks & Liquid Cooling
- Partner with Engineering/NPI to identify CTQs and ensure suppliers can meet form/fit/function, reliability, and cosmetic expectations.
- Support quality planning and validation for:
- Servers & Racks: Motherboards and all critical & non-critical components
- Electromechanical: PCBAs, harnesses, connectors, fans, PSUs, subassemblies
- Liquid Cooling Products: cold plates, manifolds, CDUs, pumps, heat exchangers, QD couplers, hoses/tubing, seals
- Ensure supplier processes support leak integrity, cleanliness/contamination control, material compatibility, and thermal performance.
Incoming Quality & Supplier Performance Management
- Lead Incoming Quality Control strategy: inspection plans, sampling, gage control, inspection work instructions, and disposition workflows.
- Build and manage supplier performance scorecards (PPM/DPPM, escapes, OTD, COPQ, audit performance).
- Lead containment and escalation for supplier issues (stop-ship criteria, sorting, deviations/waivers, MRB support).
Corrective/Preventive Action & Continuous Improvement
- Drive structured problem solving with suppliers using 8D / A3 / 5-Why / Ishikawa.
- Implement preventive actions tied to PFMEA risk reduction and field/production feedback.
- Drive supplier process improvement focused on yield, cycle time, reliability, and cost of quality.
People Leadership (Inspectors)
- Lead, coach, and develop a team of Incoming Quality Inspectors (scheduling, training, work allocation, and performance management).
- Build training and certification plans for inspectors (inspection methods, blueprint/GD&T basics, gage use, workmanship standards).
- Ensure consistent execution of incoming inspection and clear escalation to SQE/Engineering.
How will you get here?
- Startup mindset: structured, fast, practical—build it right, then scale it.
- Strong risk judgement, understands accurate vs must be “good enough to launch safely.”
- Supplier influence without authority can drive action through clarity and standards.
- Strong executive communication: can turn quality chaos into decision-ready updates.
