As a Quality Engineer I held responsibilities over various product lines while monitoring product performance both at the manufacturing level and through warranty returns. I was responsible for maintaining reporting on FTT (First Time Through) and Scrap Costs. Projects were led my me and a team to improve on these areas where possible. In addition to this I also took on reporting to identify failure modes reported from the field, answered customer complaints and worked to reduce these failures.
