A Snapshot of Your Day
As a Quality Professional within the Project Management team for Siemens Energy's Grid Technologies in Thailand, this role is pivotal in upholding the highest standards of quality for substation projects. You will be responsible for ensuring that all project deliverables and processes meet both customer expectations and stringent industry regulations, thereby safeguarding project integrity and business continuity.
The core of this position involves the development, implementation, and management of the Project Quality Plan (PQP). This includes defining quality metrics, conducting audits, managing non-conformances through corrective and preventive actions (CAPA), and overseeing supplier quality.
