Thanks to our diversity of skills, talents and cultures, our customers (governments, institutions, space agencies, telecommunications operators), therefore have Space to Connect, Secure & Defend, Observe & Protect, Explore, Travel & Navigate.Permanent responsibility:The SCQ manager shall assure the Quality of Space equipment and products purchased from external suppliers, in the frame of specific Projects.Normative and Standards:The SCQ have to know the Quality Management System fundamentals according to ISO 9001, ISO 14001, EN 9100, AQAP 2110 and ECSS requirements, in particular series Q.The candidate shall be able to manage external/internal standards in order to assure the quality for products purchased from our suppliers all along the phases of a project:• Conformity of the Products with EC Directives (CE marking, WEE, RoHS)• Compliance to Reach Regulation• Compliance to ECSS series QLocation: Torino or RomaTask description:The candidate will ensure the quality aspects of purchased items in the different segments (Electrical, RF, mechanical, propulsion and ground support equipment)for the entire life cycle of the products.Proposal phase:The candidate shall be involved in the upstreaming phase of a project taking active part to the Suppliers Selection process (TEB/PVET activities), in collaboration with buyer and engineering,for all quality aspects.
Specifically the SCQ is responsible for the verification and negotiation (RFP phase)ofSuppliers conformity to:Customer Quality Requirements (flow down):Product Assurance and Safety Requirements for sub-contractors and suppliersSpecific Statement of Work and Statement of Applicability (including list of Ads and PA DRL)Technical specification.Qualification status of the hardware proposed.EQSR and Design Reviews phase:The SCQ is called to participate to the main Subcontractors reviews of a program, starting from the KO up to the manufacturing, testing and delivery of Equipment/Units.
In particular:The SCQ is called to manage an efficient equipment qualification status review (EQSR)with Subcontractors, together with engineering and procurement in order to verify:Qualification status of a candidate solution and adequacy/coherency with the category, and relevant model philosophy, proposed by each Subcontractor.Level of understanding and compliance with the requirements of a specific project.
This activities imply the EQSR data package review and the team evaluation of maturity level both for technical and quality aspects.Where the out-come of an EQSR establish the need of a delta qualification activity or when a new development is foreseen design reviews to be performed.
The primary purpose of the review's team (Quality, engineering and procurement) is to provide a comprehensive assessment of the project status against targets and requirements.
SCQ will perform the review of quality aspects (documentation and performed analysis) in coordination with quality discipline from time to time involved.Monitoring of the Supplier during Manufacturing, Test phase and delivery:SCQ shall be able to monitor (OTD and OQD) and grant on time delivery and on quality delivery of the hardware.
This imply:Monitoring and managing of quality matters during manufacturing and qualification test campaign of a new hardware, including any new mounting technologies to be qualified.Monitoring and managing of quality matters during manufacturing and delta qualification test campaign established by EQSR, including possible new mounting configuration technologies.Monitoring and managing of quality matters during manufacturing and test campaign in case of recurrent hardware.To manage delivery review board (DRB).General skills:Managing of Mandatory Inspection pointsManaging of Major non Conformity and knowledge of problem solving techniques.Managing of Deviations and WaiversAlerts managingPreparation of PA Progress Report sectionQuality assurance disciplines coordination:It is required to the SCQ the knowledge ofQuality assurance disciplines fundamentals in order to be able to coordinate and manage the discipline's contribution during the different phase of a project:Proposal phaseDesign phaseProduction phaseTest phase and deliveryIncluding the management of RFD, RFW and NCR due to a specific aspect of a specific discipline.Personal requirements:Master degree or PhD in scientific subjects.Fluent knowledge of English language for both written and verbal communication.Excellent knowledge of Italian is requiredAttitude to teamwork.At Thales Alenia Space we provide CAREERS and not only jobs.
