Well I have zero qualifications for Working Student in Quality. I have absolutely no idea what any of this means!
  • Work closely with Control plan & FMEA specialists on CP & FMEA integration in Team Center Quality.
  • Participate in regular meetings with Siemens regarding CP/ FMEA different Sprints planning, refinement and review meetings and supply necessary inputs/ outputs.
  • Support FMEA specialist to transfer data from APIS to TCQ.
  • Support Q planning with KPI weekly updates in mLean for transparency.
  • Participate in weekly Q-Loops alignment meeting and make meeting minutes.
  • Prepare workshops e.g. Lessons Learned, Q status at end of each project phase in shops.
Then again not many people would understand "a novel SNV in the KLF4 zinc finger region commonly found in sporadic FGA" :giggle:
Every job is so much more complex than it was before computers.
At least quality is a common denominator!

Gee, that takes me back...I recognise most of that jargon...
Back in the day I was a Quality Assurance Manager for a Teir 1 OEM supplier in the Automotive industry... back when Australia had one.

They originally built cars, didn't they? Now it seems they're spinning around themselves with ever increasing rpm.
I doubt that "quality" can be achieved (only) this way...

Currently 138 positions are open.

Have a browse. 🍻

At least some of them are related to electric cars; I wonder if theyre mostly due to expansion rather than attrition? Hard to know; hopefully there’s a bit of hiring happening in communications and strategy!

Do you really think more of that (I was to say pathetic, but don't) communication we're used to so far does improve anything?
Less is better sometimes. And gives the chance to _really_ improve...

It was a (poor) joke I agree, but I do expect Ineos to address communication properly. i dont mean slick marketing, I mean good technical data, accurate explanations of actions, and respectful responses in a timely fashion.
I realise they are currently failing to do this, I dont accept or believe they will continue this failure indefinitely.
I think its important we dont stop holding them to the standard that logically accompanies the intent of the whole project. The car, and we deserve it.

Unions and the left wrecked that idea!

Believe me or not, but this was my domain of working in the past (till 3 or 4 years ago), and I don't know all the abbreviations either. That's why I hate abbreviations, they grow to a point that even an expert doesn't understand a whole sentence!

FMEA means Failure Modes and Effects Analysis, and the more advanced version is FMECA, where the C stands for "Causes".
It is a technique to document the consequences and gravity of the failure of a component of a system. The word "Mode" stands for all possible failure patterns. For instance a switch can fail in different ways: get's stuck, get's short circuited, doesn't make any contact anymore, or bad contact (with as effect heating up!), etc. All leading to different consequences (effects). This is a quite good Quality Management tool, like RCM (Reliabilty Centred Maintenance), but very time consuming.

The Q stands for Quality: that means they are aware they have still a lot of Quality problems :eek:
KPI is Key Performance Indicator.
mLean, I don't know what the "m" stands for, but Lean is also a Quality Management Technique, to simplify manufacturing processes, shorten times and distances, or removing unnecessary steps.

All very complicated words and techniques, sold by consultants, but in fact very simple to implement. The only problem is you should choose a methodology and stick to it a quite long time, consistently, day by day, to see results.
And, each management change, means usually throwing away the former system, and starting all over again, with for instance RCM instead of FMECA.

I liked my job, but I was fed up by the "short term" vision of higher management and continuous strategical changes, therefore I was happy to stop.

And yes: this should be the goal, but till now I didn't experience that we are at the centre of Ineos Automotive focus.

Think they'd hire me to by the forum feedback guy? I'd settle for 100-grand a year.
