Drive corrective actions and continuous improvement with suppliers when nonconformances occur.
Interpret supplier inspection and test reports (dimensional, electrical, environmental, HIPOT, continuity, resistance, etc.) and decide accept/reject, containment, and corrective actions.
Support failure analyses; lead or contribute to root cause analyses and 8D responses.
Ensure documentation and traceability meet internal and regulatory requirements.

Cross functional Collaboration & Commercial Support

Work with Sourcing to evaluate material/process tradeoffs that affect cost, lead time and performance; provide technical justification during supplier discussions.
Provide technical support to Sales and Marketing: technical datasheets, sell sheets, training, and customer visits to support launches.
Represent Amphenol TPC at industry standards discussions and provide input for compliance to relevant standards (UL, CSA, as applicable).
