Engineering Quality Manager, FMEA York, PA Summary - Join Voith Hydro, a global leader in renewable energy solutions, and take responsibility for engineering quality excellence across all hydroelectric projects worldwide. As Global Engineering Quality Manager, you will ensure that engineering processes, designs, and deliverables meet the highest standards of safety, reliability, and sustainability. This role combines strategic leadership with technical depth, driving quality from concept through execution for turbines, generators, and related systems. Responsibilities Lead the development, implementation, and continuous improvement of technical risk management processes, with a primary focus on FMEA (DFMEA, SFMEA PFMEA), ensuring these are applied consistently across all project phases: proposal, manufacturing, and execution. Drive the adoption and integration of digital risk management tools (e.g., cloud-based FMEA platforms, risk dashboards, automated risk tracking systems) to enhance transparency, traceability, and efficiency in risk identification and mitigation. Facilitate and moderate FMEA sessions with cross-functional teams at every stage of the value chain, leveraging digital collaboration platforms to systematically identify, assess, and mitigate potential failure modes in products, processes, and systems. Ensure comprehensive risk traceability and documentation using digital tools, driving the closure of identified actions and monitoring the effectiveness of risk controls from the earliest project phases through delivery. Collaborate with Engineering, Project Management, Manufacturing, Sourcing, and Proposal teams to integrate risk management and FMEA results into design, validation, production, and offer processes, utilizing digital solutions for seamless data sharing and reporting. Review customer specifications and legal/statutory requirements, ensuring that risk management and FMEA activities address all relevant standards and compliance obligations throughout the value chain. Conduct technical risk assessments and process audits to verify the effectiveness of risk mitigation measures and adherence to quality standards at each stage, supported by digital audit and reporting tools. Train and coach teams across all functions (including proposal, engineering, manufacturing, and project management) in FMEA methodology, root cause analysis, risk prioritization, and preventive action planning, with a focus on digital tool utilization. Monitor and report on key risk indicators, FMEA status, and risk reduction progress to executive leadership, providing real-time transparency through digital dashboards and analytics. Act as the primary interface for technical risk management topics with authorities, certification bodies, and customers, ensuring alignment from proposal through execution and leveraging digital documentation. Support the development and standardization of risk management tools, templates, and best practices across the regional engineering organization and the entire value chain, with a focus on digitalization and automation. Drive continuous improvement initiatives based on lessons learned from FMEA, field feedback, and quality data analysis, ensuring feedback loops across all project stages and utilizing digital knowledge management systems. Foster a culture of learning and continuous improvement within Engineering by systematically capturing, analyzing, and sharing lessons learned, best practices, and risk mitigation outcomes through digital platforms-enabling Engineering to evolve as a self-learning organization. Ensure that technical safety, regulatory, and normative requirements (e.g., CE, ISO 9001) are addressed through systematic risk management and FMEA processes at every step, supported by digital compliance tracking. Qualifications - Degree in Mechanical, Electrical, or Systems Engineering; advanced training or certification in FMEA, risk management, or quality (e.g., CQE, Six Sigma) is highly desirable. 7-10 years of experience in engineering quality or technical risk management roles, ideally in a regulated or project-driven environment. Proven expertise in leading FMEA activities (DFMEA, SFMEA, PFMEA), technical risk assessments, and implementation of risk mitigation strategies across the value chain. Strong experience with digital risk management tools (e.g., APIS IQ-FMEA, Siemens Teamcenter Quality, PTC Windchill Quality Solutions, or similar platforms), data analytics, and digital collaboration platforms. Strong knowledge of ISO 9001, risk management frameworks, root cause analysis, and quality planning.
