Full Job Description
Role Scope
  • Own supplier quality for mechanical equipment: CDUs, chillers, pumps, and piping packages from qualification through delivery.
  • Run supplier audits and production readiness reviews before award, and source inspections before anything ships.
  • Set the inspection and test plans suppliers build to, including factory acceptance test witness points.
  • Drive root cause and corrective action on quality escapes, and verify the fix at the supplier floor, not on paper.

The below is a starting point. We always make space for exceptional people, so if you don't fit this role exactly, tell us where you would.
  • You've done supplier quality for mechanical or HVAC equipment manufacturers, on their floors.
  • You've witnessed factory acceptance tests and failed one when it deserved to fail.
  • You write inspection plans from drawings and specs, not from templates.
  • Your corrective actions close with evidence, and repeat escapes from your suppliers are rare.
  • Bonus: Liquid cooling equipment. ASME and ISO quality systems. Welding and brazing inspection. PPAP or APQP experience.


We are committed to pay equity and transparency.
