Supplier Manager for NPI – Machining

Your Day at a Glance

You will qualify suppliers for machining processes on gas-turbine components and provide full technical support. Together with partners you own qualification, quality, schedule, and cost. You develop and industrialize new manufacturing processes at suppliers and act as the primary contact for technical and quality issues—externally and internally. Serving as the link between design and manufacturing, you analyze data, identify improvement potential, and drive supplier initiatives. With growing experience you will lead larger projects. Business fluent communication in German and English is essential.
