Your Mission:
As Head of Quality Management, you will be responsible for shaping and executing Cubonic’s quality strategy across engineering, manufacturing, and supplier networks. This is a hands-on leadership role that requires deep expertise in developing and implementing quality management systems and engineering processes in an automotive environment.
You will play a key role in ensuring quality and compliance throughout our product lifecycle — from prototype to series production — with a special focus on systems for functional safety (ASIL) and autonomous driving technologies.
Key Responsibilities:
- Define, implement, and continuously improve the Quality Management System (QMS) in line with IATF 16949, ISO 9001, and ISO 26262.
- Lead the development and execution of quality assurance processes across product development (APQP, PPAP), engineering validation, and pre-series build.
- Support cross-functional teams in building mature, audit-ready engineering processes.
- Manage internal and external audits (system/process/product), including supplier audits.
- Establish robust problem-solving methodologies (8D, Ishikawa, FMEA) across departments.
- Drive a zero-defect mindset in early development stages with hands-on involvement in issue resolution, lessons learned, and risk management.
- Collaborate with development, project management, purchasing, and production to ensure quality is embedded in every step.
- Build and lead a small but effective Quality Team, scaling as the company grows.
- Prepare for upcoming homologation, functional safety audits, and certification readiness.
