As secondary focuses, this role will contribute to other key quality functions, for example supplier qualification and audits, corrective action plans, cross-functional and partner support, and regulatory support.

Own Trove’s vendor quality scorecard: consolidate inputs from across the quality team, deliver substantive feedback to manufacturing partners, and continue to develop the methodology behind the score.
Own and improve the quality data tracking systems in coordination with the Asia Quality team — ensure they are used consistently and that the data holds up.
Own product performance tracking; analyze trends, identify recurring failure modes, and communicate findings to the teams who can act on them.
Provide quality data and guidance to cross-functional partners, including ordering and allocation, sourcing, and engineering.
Support vendor onboarding and ongoing evaluation in partnership with the Sourcing team, following Trove’s vendor qualification process.

Lead targeted improvement of the system to create a practical QMS suited to a virtual manufacturer.
Create, maintain, and improve SOPs and work instructions across the quality function.
Support investigation and resolution of quality issues with the inspection team, Engineering, and factory partners — establishing root cause, then initiating, tracking, and validating corrective actions.

5+ years of experience in product quality, supplier quality, or manufacturing quality, including hands-on experience with consumer hard goods.
Demonstrated ownership of quality data: building and maintaining tracking systems, performing trend analysis, and turning findings into feedback that suppliers and internal teams act on.
Advanced Excel skills and comfort working within an ERP or similar business system.
Experience with the working components of a quality management system — SOPs, document control, corrective action, and audits.
Root cause analysis and corrective action experience with contract manufacturers, ideally overseas.
Working familiarity with inspection methodology: sampling plans and AQL, defect classification, and acceptance criteria.
Strong organization and documentation habits; able to build repeatable processes that others will actually follow.
Ability to communicate effectively with internal stakeholders and factory partners abroad, and to learn new product categories quickly.

Major role in building out or substantially improving a quality management system.
