Not present. We must not duplicate lines. We need to ensure we include all substantive info. Let's extract sections. First, a short paragraph for metadata: Date Posted: 2026-09-16, Location: US-AZ-TUCSON-928 ~ 1151 E Hermans Rd ~ MULTI PURPOSE FAC 928. Could combine. Now About the role: The paragraph starting "At RTX, the world's largest aerospace and defense company..." through "Join us and help shape the future of aerospace and defense." Also maybe "Our Quality Team in Tucson, AZ, is searching for a Program Supplier Assurance Engineer." That is part of about. We'll put that in
. Responsibilities: The bullet list after "You will drive continuous product / process improvements..." includes many items. Let's list them as
- . We need to avoid duplication: Some sentences repeated later (e.g., "Perform on-site Source Surveillance and Corrective Action reviews" appears multiple times). We should include each unique duty only once. Let's extract unique responsibilities: - Drive continuous product / process improvements of our supply base by identifying supplier risk & systemic performance issues and driving solutions through various tools/methodologies including: Root Cause Corrective Actions, Statistical/analytical improvement tools such as Six Sigma and Lean Methodologies. - Perform on-site Source Surveillance and Corrective Action reviews. - Participate in design reviews, process change reviews, qualification test reviews, as well as Test Equipment verification and validation. - Ensure flow down of product requirements both internally and to sub-tier suppliers through PO requirements, Quality Notes, and statements of work. - Interpreting these requirements to ensure supply base both understands and complies with these quality requirements. - Interpret quality requirements (Q-Notes) and make decisions on Q-Note application to procured production parts. - Facilitate closed loop process controls and continuous improvement methods to improve product/process quality. - Facilitate Program Reviews, Supplier Reviews, and Technical Interchange Meetings. - Perform Supplier factory process walks and factory risk assessments. - Perform reviews of supplier manufacturing instructions and processes to mitigate escape risk. - Application of APQP processes related to supplier performance and implementation of necessary engagements to improve supplier manufacturing processes. - Represent quality during review boards covering changes to: supplier designs, process changes, qualification tests, and procedure reviews. - Review Internal TDP change requests, Supplier change requests, and Supplier Statements of Work. - Contribute in the development of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and metrics to measure supplier quality performance. - Communicate effectively to Raytheon leadership and customers through business reviews and status meetings. - Support the supplier corrective action process, review, approval and monitoring; assure containment, closed loop Root Cause Corrective Action is obtained; communicate issue and resolution to functional stakeholders. - Identify and document supplier risk; develop mitigation plans to reduce, eliminate and prevent supplied product defects. - Ability to travel as required by program needs. Can anticipate some travel (Up to 25%) to support supplier assessments, audits, reviews. Also maybe "Perform on-site Source Surveillance and Corrective Action reviews, Participate in design reviews, program reviews, process change reviews, supplier reviews, qualification test reviews, as well as Test Equipment verification and validation to mitigate escape risk." Already covered. Now Requirements: Active and transferable U.S. government issued security clearance required prior to start date. U.S. citizenship required, as only U.S. citizens eligible for security clearance. Ability to obtain INTERIM U.S. government issued security clearance required prior to start date. (Note: both active transferable and ability to obtain interim; we can combine.) Also maybe "U.S. Citizen, U.S. Person, or Immigration Status Requirements:" but we already have. Now Qualifications: Must Have: - Typically requires a Bachelor’s degree in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Math (STEM) and 8 years’ experience in quality engineering, manufacturing, or related engineering discipline. - Experience working with one or more of the following aerospace or commercial equivalent preventative tools – Statistical Process Control (SPC), Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and/or Quality Function Deployment (QFD). - Previous experience conducting root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions. - Experience with one or more of the following standards: ISO 9001, AS9100, AS9145, and/or MDA Assurance Provisions. - Previous experience interpreting schematic drawings and hardware inspection techniques. - Ability to obtain INTERIM U.S. government issued security clearance is required prior to start date. (Already in requirements but we can keep maybe duplicate? Might be okay but we should avoid duplication. Since it's also in Requirements, we could omit from Qualifications to avoid duplication. But the instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. Duplication is okay? It says remove duplicated lines. So we should avoid duplicate lines. So we should not repeat the security clearance requirement in Qualifications if already in Requirements. We'll keep it only in Requirements. Now Qualifications We Prefer: - Ideal candidate brings leadership and hands-on experience working with one or more of the following aerospace or commercial equivalent preventative tools – quality tools such as FMEA, problem solving methodologies 8D investigations, and continuous improvement initiatives. - Possess verbal / written and presentation communications and interpersonal skills; ability to effectively persuade and influence through positive communications with stakeholders, team members, suppliers, management. - High energy, self-starter with ability to perform work under general direction. - Six Sigma, Lean, and/or American Society for Quality (ASQ) Certification (CQE, CQM/OE, CSQE, CQA, CRE, etc.) - Experience using process improvement techniques and methodologies (e.g. Kaizen, Lean, DMAIC, and DMADV) and tools (e.g. ANOVA, SPC, Capability Analysis, DOE, MSA, and FMEA) - Proven successes in building and maintaining relationships with multiple suppliers/ customers. - Experience in DoD product and process oversight including requirements, build, integration, test, and delivery. - Experience in engineering, development, project planning, and collaborating remotely. - Project management experience, working experience with AS 9100 quality management systems, and experience in aerospace-related manufacturing environment, is a plus - Experience in failure analysis and root cause analysis - Working knowledge of ISO 9001/AS9100 quality management systems, AS9145 Requirements for APQP and FAI Standard AS9102. - General knowledge of industry technical standards (such as ANSI, CMMI, ASTM, etc.) Now Skills: Could be derived from qualifications but we may not need separate Skills section if content overlaps. The instruction: prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine Qualifications and Skills into one Qualifications section that includes both must have and preferred. But we have headings for Skills separate. Might be better to have Qualifications (must have) and Preferred Qualifications as sub-items? But we only allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put all qualification details under Qualifications, and maybe Skills under Skills (like tools, methodologies). However to avoid thin sections, we could merge Skills into Qualifications. But we need to follow instruction: include a section ONLY when posting has real, specific content for it. If we put content under Skills, we need to ensure it's not thin. We could list specific skills like SPC, FMEA, QFD, Six Sigma, Lean, APQP, etc. That's substantive enough. Thus we can have: - Qualifications: Education and experience requirements (Bachelor's + 8 years, etc.) - Skills: Specific technical skills and tools (SPC, FMEA, QFD, Six Sigma, Lean, APQP, ISO 9001, AS9100, AS9145, MDA Assurance Provisions, schematic interpretation, root cause analysis, corrective action, etc.) plus soft skills (communication, leadership, etc.) maybe. But we need to avoid duplication with Qualifications. We'll split: Qualifications = education + years experience + security clearance (maybe). Skills = tools, methodologies, standards, soft skills. Let's decide. Qualifications section: - Bachelor’s degree in STEM and 8 years’ experience in quality engineering, manufacturing, or related engineering discipline. - Ability to obtain INTERIM U.S. government issued security clearance required prior to start date. (But we already have in Requirements; maybe we keep only in Requirements and not duplicate. However Qualifications could still mention degree and experience. We'll keep Qualifications as degree + experience. Skills section: - Experience with SPC, FMEA, QFD. - Experience conducting root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions. - Experience with standards: ISO 9001, AS9100, AS9145, MDA Assurance Provisions. - Experience interpreting schematic drawings and hardware inspection techniques. - Leadership and hands-on experience with quality tools such as FMEA, 8D investigations, continuous improvement initiatives. - Verbal/written and presentation communication skills; ability to persuade and influence. - High energy, self-starter, ability to work under general direction. - Six Sigma, Lean, and/or ASQ Certification. - Experience using process improvement techniques/methodologies (Kaizen, Lean, DMAIC, DMADV) and tools (ANOVA, SPC, Capability Analysis, DOE, MSA, FMEA). - Proven successes building/maintaining relationships with multiple suppliers/customers. - Experience in DoD product and process oversight (requirements, build, integration, test, delivery). - Experience in engineering, development, project planning, collaborating remotely. - Project management experience, experience with AS 9100 QMS, aerospace-related manufacturing environment. - Experience in failure analysis and root cause analysis. - Working knowledge of ISO 9001/AS9100 QMS, AS9145 Requirements for APQP and FAI Standard AS9102. - General knowledge of industry technical standards (ANSI, CMMI, ASTM, etc.) Now Benefits: list as given. Benefits: medical, dental, vision, life insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, 401(k) match, flexible spending accounts, flexible work schedules, employee assistance program, Employee Scholar Program, parental leave, paid
