Summary

Where: The Automotive Campus in Helmond, part of Brainport: the heart of Europe's innovation and/or from the comfort of your own home

Domain: Quality

Experience: 5+ years of relevant experience

Degree: Bachelor’s degreeWorking at Lightyear is a unique experience. You get the opportunity to work for a company with a pure and meaningful mission. A mission that will make a positive and lasting impact on future generations.

What will you do as a Quality Engineer?

In order to properly give you some insights on what is expected of you, we’d firstly like to give you some broad strokes given the team you’ll become part of. Within Lightyear, our teams are still relatively small. Earlier this year Marcel joined us as a Quality Manager, specifically focusing on making sure we embed quality within our Product Creation Process. Throughout his first months he’s been working on priorities and the roadmap that comes along with that which now results in hiring his first team member.

As a Quality Engineer it’s your main responsibility to assess the input of reported concerns and non-conformances and collaborate with the reporter and relevant stakeholders from engineering on the containment, root cause, corrective action and preventive measure. You will organise reporting sessions with project management, our vehicle architect and other relevant domain experts to determine priority and progress of the reported concerns. You will have frequent contact with your colleagues from supplier quality engineering and our Vehicle Contract Manufacturer (Valmet) to follow-up related concerns. Besides your daily efforts managing the concern management process you will also help optimising the process and the tools used.

By referring to your responsibilities as described above, this leads to scope of tasks as you can find below. Due to the organic growth of Lightyear it’s highly likely that your job isn’t limited to those particular tasks. So, your job is focused but isn't limited to;

  • Being responsible for concern management (also known as: non-conformance management, complaint management)
  • Collaborating with engineering and production on containment. root cause analysis, corrective actions and preventive measures
  • Reporting on progress of concern management, related cost of non quality
  • Checking the effectiveness of preventive measures
  • Continuously improving the processes and tools used

What do we expect from a Quality Engineer?

In order to succeed in the dynamic world of Lightyear; pro-activity, professionalism, communication and adaptability are crucial. We are looking for someone with an ambitious attitude who learns from the past but who is especially open to transforming new developments or ideas into the ‘tried and tested’ of the future! You thrive on working team based, but working independently every now and then shouldn’t be an issue. You are flexible and can work under pressure. Furthermore, we are looking for someone with:

  • A Bachelor’s degree in either (industrial engineering) or business administration
  • A minimum of 5 years of relevant experience
  • Experience with 8D problem solving methodology
  • Experience with working in a high-tech development environment
  • Safety conscious
  • Basic understanding of System Engineering
  • Fluency in English
  • Skills in 3D modelling

On a more personal level, you would consider yourself being hands-on and practically minded. You have a great attention to detail and you’re eager to learn and to grow in a team. You like to support your colleagues in following the process, have good communication skills and know how to build a relationship.

What can you expect from Lightyear?

In addition to a challenging role we also offer:

  • A high degree of freedom and independence in your role
  • A role within a multidisciplinary team consisting of highly motivated, inquisitive and talented people with a broad diversity of experience
  • A role at one of the fastest growing technical companies in the Netherlands with tremendous potential
  • 40 vacation days per year
  • An interesting and balanced pension through Zwitserleven that is in line with the mission of Lightyear
  • The ability to participate via shares and to be involved in the growth and success of Lightyear
  • In addition to a dynamic working environment, there is time for relaxation during our already epic Friday afternoon drinks
