Quality Management

surge aero is developing and delivering high-end propulsion solutions with a strong focus on engineering, reliability and performance. As we build our operations, quality is a core part of how we work — not something added at the end of the process.

We are looking for a Quality Engineer to establish and drive our quality activities from an early stage. This is a hands-on role with a strong technical focus, working closely with engineering, testing and operations.

Tasks

As Quality Engineer, you will be responsible for ensuring that our engines and related components meet defined quality, reliability and documentation standards.

In the initial phase, our activities will focus primarily on testing, inspection and, where necessary, rework rather than full in-house engine manufacturing. You will therefore play a key role in establishing robust inspection and release processes and ensuring that every product leaving our facility meets our high standards.

You will help build our quality processes from the ground up, establish clear criteria for inspection and release, and ensure full traceability throughout our operations.

Your Responsibilities

Establish and maintain inspection, quality and release processes for engines, components and rework activities

Develop inspection plans, control plans and clear release criteria

Perform and coordinate incoming, in-process and final inspections

Support and oversee engine testing and test-bench quality activities , including measurement-system suitability and data plausibility

Ensure complete product and process traceability

Manage measurement and inspection equipment , including calibration and suitability

Identify and manage non-conformities, deviations and corrective actions

Lead structured root-cause analysis and 8D problem solving

Support FMEA activities and identify quality risks early

Work closely with engineering and operations on technical quality issues, rework and product release

Support supplier quality topics , especially incoming quality issues and supplier corrective actions

Build and continuously improve the quality management system , including preparation for ISO 9001 and EN 9100

Requirements

Technical degree, engineering qualification or technician qualification

Several years of experience in quality engineering within manufacturing, mechanical engineering, aerospace, automotive or a comparable technical environment

Strong practical understanding of inspection, release, non-conformity and corrective-action processes

Experience with quality methods such as 8D, FMEA, MSA and structured root-cause analysis

Experience with measurement and test equipment , including calibration and measurement-system suitability

Good understanding of technical drawings, specifications and product documentation

Experience with product and process traceability

Strong technical understanding of mechanical systems and measurement technology ; experience with engines and/or test benches is highly desirable

Experience with ISO 9001 and ideally EN 9100

Hands-on, structured and independent working style, with the ability to establish processes in an environment where not everything is already defined

Fluent German and good English skills

Benefits

The opportunity to build quality processes from the ground up

A key role in establishing the quality standards of a growing aerospace company

Direct collaboration with engineering, testing and operations

A highly technical and hands-on working environment

Significant responsibility and room to shape processes and standards
