Quality Manager

About the role

We're looking for an experienced Quality Manager to lead QA program compliance and oversight for our RMS product line.

Responsibilities

• Assess and strengthen implementation of QA program requirements (ISO 9001:2015, 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, 10 CFR Part 21, and NQA-1).
• Organize and lead internal and external audits, including ISO 9001 maintenance audits and NUPIC triennial audits.
• Develop and review technical evaluations and procurement requirements, including commercial-grade item dedication plans and reports.
• Conduct supplier quality audits, commercial-grade surveys, and source inspections at domestic and European suppliers (approximately 10% travel).
• Serve as a key point of contact for customer and supplier inquiries on quality assurance topics.
• Prepare inspection plans for internal operations and supplier oversight.
• Support corrective/preventive action processes and non-conformance tracking.
• Serve as the Site Export Control Coordinator for RMS, partnering with Compliance Director to ensure exports of products and technology adhere to applicable regulations.
• Other duties as assigned.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree from an accredited university (Electrical, Mechanical, Nuclear Engineering, or related discipline preferred; other backgrounds considered with relevant experience).
• Minimum 3 years of directly relevant commercial nuclear work history (power generation or DoD), with experience in a Nuclear Quality Assurance program.
• Working knowledge of QA regulations and standards such as 10 CFR 50 Appendix B, 10 CFR Part 21, ASME NQA-1, and IEEE 323/344.
• Demonstrated ability to perform and document audits, inspections, and oversight activities.
• Nuclear Lead Auditor certification (ASME NQA-1 / ANSI standards) — or ability to obtain one.
• Strong communication skills and the ability to collaborate across a diverse group of engineering, quality, and supplier partners.
• Ability to read and interpret mechanical and electrical drawings and schematics.
• U.S. Citizenship required due to federal contract and export-control requirements.
• Ability to pass a pre-employment background check.

• Experience in a shop fabrication environment (electrical and/or mechanical).
• Experience with instrumentation and control systems.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Project, Access).
