• First Article Inspection (FAI) - Responsible for the inspection and documentation of First Article Inspection (FAI) parts on the shop floor, reviewed FAI reports from suppliers, and identified major discrepancies in manufacturing processes. Additionally, coordinated the approval process for concession and deviation parts from the customer. • Audit - Maintained records of quality audits for both internal and external audits. • Part & Process Validation - Validated all operations in work orders against part definitions, ensuring that all dimensions and GD&T are compared with 2D drawings and CATIA 3D models. • Verified Certificates of Conformity (CoC) with standard documentation. • Supplier selection & Performance rating - maintained rejection documents for vendor-wise weekly, monthly, monitored the performance of new suppliers, and actively participated in supplier selection and supply chain management. • Complaint Handling - Managed complaint handling with suppliers for development layouts,providing feedback during meetings and documenting key actions in the meeting minutes (MOM) • Inspection Part - Machining part of Casting & Forging, Sheet Metal, Molding,Composite Part,Special process.
Process Planner - CT INGENIERIE France - • Inspection Report - I created inspection operation instruction sheets for aerostructure and engine parts, based on the BOM, incorporating assembly parameters and part-specific requirements. • Estimate costing - Estimated costing and processing time, securing departmental approval. • Routing - Developed process plans and routing instructions, ensuring accuracy and compliance with engineering drawings and standards. FAI & PPAP • Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) - Prepared (PPAP) documentation to ensure supplier compliance with required standards. • Developed and implemented quality support processes - Improving efficiency and consistency across departments to meet organizational goals. • QA and QC initiatives - Ensuring compliance with specifications and regulatory standards while driving continuous improvement. • Non-conformity - Managed non-conformity processes, addressing root causes, implementing corrective actions, and preventing recurrence to maintain quality. • Collaborated with cross-functional teams (production, R&D, customer service) to enhance customer satisfaction and deliver high-quality results. Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO Manual) • Process Assembly/disassembly flow charts - I analyzed shop floor data and developed a database (LChart) to optimize the assembly and disassembly flow in MRO activities. I created engine assembly/disassembly flow charts, identifying the parts, tools, and equipment needed for each engine module. By streamlining the process and ensuring the timely availability of components, I reduced idle time. I thoroughly studied aircraft engine manuals to identify the necessary parts, tools, and equipment for assembling and disassembling engine externals, organizing the gathered data in a sequential order to document all components and procedures for efficient engine assembly and disassembly. • IT Automation - Collaborated with the IT team to create automation tools using Excel
Project Summary - • Inspection & Calibration - Conducted line, final, and receiving inspections of parts after special processing (anodizing, bead blasting, painting, etc.). • Reviewed calibration records for instruments and gauges, and performed inspections on first-off machine parts, in-process components, final assemblies,and special processes. • Quality Instrument Handling: Counter Tracer, Profile Projector, Hardness Tester, Thickness Tester, Bore Gauge,Surface tester, Vernier, Micrometer, Height Gauge, Depth Gauge,3-Pin Micrometer, Ultrasonic Tester, Air Gauge, Inside Leg Calliper, Attribute gauge, Bevel Protractor, Spring Loader Machine, Liner Height Gauge.
Layout & Documentation - I oversaw the layout of incoming semi-finished and machining materials for casting and forging, sheet metal, and molding parts in the aerospace and automobile sectors for OEMs, including trial 1 and trial 2 customer requirements.
