A Snapshot of Your Day 

As a Quality Engineer, your day starts with reviewing emails and project updates, followed by planning and prioritising tasks.

You meet virtually with a supplier to discuss quality expectations and review their compliance documentation, then update the quality management system (QMS) and prepare reports.  

Later you may prepare for a site visit, conduct an internal audit, identify non-conformances, and discuss corrective actions with the team. You review quality control reports, address any issues, and conclude the day by summarizing activities, updating the Quality Manager, planning for the next day, and responding to remaining emails, ensuring meticulous management of quality assurance and control activities across projects.
