Senior Quality Assurance Engineer – Consumer Hardware

 

We are currently seeking an ambitious pace-setter to join our team as a Senior Quality Assurance Engineer – Consumer Hardware, onsite in Logan, Utah.

iFIT is looking for a detail-oriented and driven Customer Quality Engineer to serve as the closed-loop owner between iFIT customers and our supply base. In this role, you will translate field failures, warranty data, and out-of-box experience issues into root cause investigations and corrective actions with suppliers and internal engineering.

• Sustain earnings by achieving Cost of Poor Quality warranty targets through proactive quality management and supplier accountability.
• Champion AI adoption by implementing at least one AI initiative focused on replacing repetitive or highly manual quality tasks to improve team efficiency and employee experience.
• Increase profitability by reducing Cost of Poor Quality through QPA investigations and continuous quality improvement activities.

 

ESSENTIAL DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Drive reduction of Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ) by analyzing customer complaints, warranty data, and out-of-box experience trends, then leading corrective actions back through engineering and suppliers.
• Facilitate Root Cause Analysis using 8D, 5-Why, and FMEA methodologies on supplier and product quality issues, owning each case to verified, effective closure.
• Operationalize QMS policies, procedures, and work instructions on the production floor, and support audits, customer visits, and factory acceptance tests.
• Partner with Design and Manufacturing Engineering to define process parameters and validate supplier process capability against product requirements.
• Prepare quality performance reports and recurring training for the Quality team, and communicate with foreign vendors after hours as needed.
