Description:
You will be the Quality Engineer Senior for Lockheed Martin Missiles & Fire Control (MFC) in Grand Prairie, Texas. Our team is responsible for ensuring the quality of manufactured, repaired, and procured products meet or exceed design and process requirements.
What You Will Be Doing
As the Quality Engineer Senior, this role will serve as the central Quality Inspection interface across Product Leads, PP&C, Operations, and program teams.

Your responsibilities will include:
- Reviewing documentation related to internal and external manufacturing processes
- Analyzing quality data on yields, rework, scrap, and non-conformance aging
- Interfacing with quality inspection, quality engineers, and Production Operations
- Evaluating design assurance activities and production process methodology
- Interfacing with customers, suppliers, and program personnel on quality-related issues
- Utilizing lean initiatives to reduce waste and maintain continuous improvement
Why Join Us
