Senior Quality Engineer
Nordson Corporation · East Providence, RI · 1 mo ago
Full-time
We need to output only HTML fragment, using for section headings (About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate, duplicate lines, application instructions, EEO etc. Must preserve all substantive info. Include sections only when posting has real specific content. So we need to extract sections: About the role (maybe summary of role), Responsibilities (essential duties), Requirements (minimum requirements), Qualifications (maybe preferred?), Skills (maybe specific skills), Benefits (maybe not present?), Pay (not present), Schedule (maybe travel required? Not schedule). The posting mentions "Travel Required Estimated 10%" - that could be schedule? Not exactly schedule. Could be considered "Travel" but not schedule. Probably we omit Schedule if not present. Benefits: not mentioned. Pay: not mentioned. So we may omit Benefits, Pay, Schedule sections.
We need headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. Possibly also "Working Conditions" but not in list; we could incorporate into Requirements or Skills? The instruction says use those headings only; we can omit others. So we will produce sections for those headings that have content.
Let's extract content:
About the role: The posting has "Summary Of The Role As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and collaborative environment, where your ideas and contributions will be valued and respected." Also "Job Summary The Senior Quality Engineer leads collaborative cross-functional teams..." That's more like responsibilities. But we can put the summary paragraph under About the role.
Responsibilities: list of essential duties. We need to convert to

Let's extract content:
About the role: The posting has "Summary Of The Role As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and collaborative environment, where your ideas and contributions will be valued and respected." Also "Job Summary The Senior Quality Engineer leads collaborative cross-functional teams..." That's more like responsibilities. But we can put the summary paragraph under About the role.
Responsibilities: list of essential duties. We need to convert to - . The duties are many bullet-like sentences. We'll extract each duty as list item.
Requirements: Minimum Requirements bullet list.
Qualifications: Preferred Requirements maybe.
Skills: maybe specific skills like problem solving, statistical tools, etc. Could be derived from both minimum and preferred. But we can put skills as separate list: e.g., "Proficient in Microsoft Office: Excel, Word and PowerPoint", "Experience working in an ISO9000 manufacturing environment", "Demonstrated intermediate problem-solving skills – Root Cause Analysis / Problem Solving Methods (8-D, PDCA, DMAIC)", etc. However those are already in Requirements. Might be redundant. But we can still create Skills section for things like "Ability to read, understand and interpret technical drawings", "Knowledge of Probability and Statistics", etc. However we need to avoid duplication? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. It doesn't forbid duplication across sections, but better to avoid redundancy. We could assign each piece to appropriate section: Requirements = minimum requirements (education, years experience, etc). Qualifications = preferred requirements. Skills = specific technical skills (problem solving, statistical tools, measurement systems, auditing, etc). But many of those are also in responsibilities. Might be okay to have overlapping but we need to preserve all info; duplication is not prohibited but might be considered redundant. I'd try to distribute without duplication: Use Responsibilities for duties list. Use Requirements for education, experience, basic proficiency. Use Qualifications for preferred requirements (injection molding, machined parts, Lean, Six Sigma Green Belt, Minitab). Use Skills for specific technical abilities: problem solving methods, statistics, QA tools, measurement systems, auditing, reading technical drawings, etc. However some of those appear also in responsibilities (like measurement systems, auditing). But we can still list them under Skills as they are skills. It's okay.
Let's extract:
Minimum Requirements:
- Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering
- 4+ years quality assurance related experience
- Proficient in Microsoft Office: Excel, Word and PowerPoint
- Experience working in an ISO09000 manufacturing environment or equivalent.
- Demonstrated intermediate problem-solving skills – Root Cause Analysis / Problem Solving Methods (8-D, PDCA, DMAIC)
- Demonstrated basic understand and training in at least three of the following areas:

* Industrial statistics (Cpk, MSA, SPC)
* QA Tools (PPAP, FMEA, Control Plans)
* Design of Experiments
- Able to read, understand and interpret technical drawings / documentation from three and ability to create technical drawings / documentation in Mechanical Design.
(Note: grammar weird but keep as is.)
Other disciplines below are an advantage:
- Pneumatics

- Electronics and sensors
- Chemical formula preparation
These could be under Skills or Qualifications? They are "Other disciplines below are an advantage:" maybe under Skills.
Preferred Requirements:
- Working knowledge of Injection Molding equipment and processes
- Working knowledge of machined part equipment and processes
- Working knowledge of advanced Lean principles and methods (Value Stream Mapping, RIE, Status Display, 6S, Continuous Flow)
- Certified Six Sigma Green Belt/Black Belt
- Experience with Minitab
Now Responsibilities: list from "Essential Job Duties And Responsibilities" sections.
Let's extract each duty as separate bullet:

- Participate in NPD process by conducting specification and design reviews with respect to Quality requirements of new products, develops measurement system plans, reliability plans, control plans and FMEAs.
- All other duties as assigned.
Now About the role: we have two paragraphs: "Summary Of The Role As a member of our team, you will have the opportunity to work in a dynamic and collaborative environment, where your ideas and contributions will be valued and respected." and "Job Summary The Senior Quality Engineer leads collaborative cross-functional teams to proactively implement quality design, manufacturing and administrative processes. They are also responsible for developing processes to assess product and process risk, performing root cause analysis and implementing effective long-term corrective actions to prevent recurrence of quality issues. Will develop and use metrics to identify areas of continuous improvement and train EFD team members in problem solving methodologies, as required."
We can combine into About the role section.
Now Skills: we can list specific skills derived from minimum and preferred and responsibilities: problem solving methods, statistical tools, QA tools, measurement systems, auditing, Lean/Six Sigma, technical drawing interpretation, etc. But to avoid duplication, maybe we just put skills that are not already covered elsewhere: e.g., "Ability to read, understand and interpret technical drawings / documentation", "Ability to create technical drawings / documentation in Mechanical Design", "Knowledge of Pneumatics, Data acquisition/Gauging, Electronics and sensors, Chemical formula preparation", "Experience with Minitab", "Knowledge of advanced Lean principles and methods", "Certified Six Sigma Green Belt/Black Belt". However some of those are in Preferred Requirements. Might be okay to put them under Skills.
But we need to ensure we don't miss any substantive info. Let's decide to put:
- About the role: summary paragraphs.
- Responsibilities: list of duties.
- Requirements: minimum requirements (education, experience, MS Office, ISO experience, problem solving, basic understanding in at least three areas, ability to read/interpret technical drawings).
- Qualifications: preferred requirements (Injection molding, machined parts, advanced Lean, Six Sigma Green/Black Belt, Minitab).
- Skills: other advantageous disciplines (Pneumatics, Data acquisition/Gauging, Electronics and sensors, Chemical formula preparation) plus maybe specific skills like statistical tools, QA tools, measurement systems, auditing, Lean/Six Sigma tools, etc. But many of those are already in responsibilities or requirements. However we can still include them under Skills as they are skills; duplication may be okay but risk of being considered filler? The instruction: "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Duplication may create thin sections if we split too much. Better to avoid duplication and keep sections substantive.
Thus we can assign:
Requirements: education, experience, MS Office, ISO experience, problem solving, basic understanding in at least three areas (list), ability to read/interpret technical drawings.
Qualifications: preferred requirements (injection molding, machined parts, advanced Lean, Six Sigma Green/Black Belt, Minitab).
Skills: other advantageous disciplines (Pneumatics, Data acquisition/Gauging, Electronics and sensors, Chemical formula preparation) plus maybe "Ability to create technical drawings / documentation in Mechanical Design" (though that was in requirements? Actually requirement said "ability to create technical drawings / documentation in Mechanical Design." Yes it's there. So we can keep it in Requirements.
Thus Skills may just be the other advantageous disciplines.
But we also have "Demonstrated basic understand and training in at least three of the following areas: Probability and Statistics, Industrial statistics (Cpk, MSA, SPC), QA Tools (PPAP, FMEA, Control Plans), Design of Experiments". Those are skills; we could put them under Skills instead of Requirements to avoid duplication. However they are part of minimum requirements. Could keep them in Requirements as they are required.
Thus Skills section may be thin if we only list the other advantageous disciplines (4 items). That's still substantive enough.
Alternatively we could combine Skills and Qualifications into one section? But headings are fixed; we must use them if we have content. We'll have Skills with those four items.
Now we need to output HTML fragment with
headings and - for lists,
for prose.
We must not include any extra text like comments.
