  • Support internal and external audits, including remediation activities when required.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement initiatives by identifying gaps and implementing practical solutions.
  • Act as a quality advocate, offering guidance on documentation best practices to software, design, manufacturing, and other functional teams.
