The Role

The Supplier Quality and Development Engineer is a key liaison between Purchasing, Engineering, Manufacturing, and our global supply base, ensuring robust launch execution and ongoing quality performance of supplier-provided components. You will lead Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP), execute the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) and Run at Rate (R@R), and drive systemic problem solving with suppliers to deliver flawless parts to our manufacturing plants and customers.


If needed, the Supplier Quality and Development Engineer will also serve as the Global Commodity Lead, representing SQE at the Engineering Creativity Team (ECT) and supporting Business Over Time (BOT) and sourcing package activities.

What You'll Do

  • Lead APQP with assigned suppliers to meet or exceed program timing and quality targets, ensuring manufacturing readiness at key milestones.
  • Review and approve supplier quality deliverables, including Process Flow Diagrams, PFMEAs, Control Plans, MSA, and capability studies, ensuring alignment to GM standards and customer specific requirements.
  • Review and approve PPAP and Run@Rate submissions, confirming process capacity, stability, and robust control of key characteristics prior to production release.
  • Monitor supplier performance using key quality metrics (PPM, SPPS, PRTS, warranty, launch issues) and drive continuous improvement through structured action plans and workshops.
  • Lead structured problem solving (e.g., Red X, 7 Diamonds, 8D/SPPS) for supplier-related issues, from fast containment through root cause analysis and robust long-term corrective actions.
  • Conduct on-site supplier assessments and process reviews to verify manufacturing process capability, quality management system robustness, and compliance with IATF 16949 and GM customer specific requirements
  • Partner cross-functionally with Design Release Engineering, Manufacturing, Plant Quality, Purchasing, and Launch teams to ensure alignment on design changes, risk mitigation, and launch readiness.
  • Develop and share lessons learned across programs and commodities to prevent recurrence of systemic issues and strengthen standard work for sup Supplier Quality and Development.
  • As SQE GCL, you will represent Supplier Quality and Development in sourcing decisions and ensure the selected supplier can meet GM’s quality requirements.

Your Skills & Abilities ( Required Qualifications)

  • 2 years of experience in supplier quality, quality engineering, manufacturing engineering, or product engineering preferably in the automotive or closely related industry.
  • Strong knowledge and hands-on experience with APQP, PPAP, Run@Rate, control plans, PFMEA, Measurement System Analysis, and Statistical Process Control.
  • Proficient in print reading, GD&T, gage design and selection, part measurement, or application of dimensional data for decision making.
  • Solid understanding of manufacturing and assembly processes, tooling, automation, and process controls.
  • Demonstrated ability to use probability, statistical quality control, and design of experiments for problem solving and process optimization.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional teams, influence without direct authority, and manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-paced environment.
  • High level of interpersonal skills to work independently and effectively with suppliers, engineering, manufacturing, and leadership at multiple levels.
  • Strong oral, written, and presentation skills, with the ability to summarize complex technical issues into clear, action-oriented updates for both technical and non-technical audiences
