At Leonardo we are offering an exciting opportunity to join us as a Principal Quality Engineer within our Customer Support & Service Solutions team at our Luton site.

This is a hybrid role. We ideally need you onsite 2 days a week, with the flexibility to come in more often when business needs require it. The role requires occasional travel to support our programmes, so we are looking for candidates who can travel with reasonable notice.

We are looking for a dedicated professional who wants to build a long-term foundation with our team and grow alongside our unit.

What you will do as a Quality Engineer:

Act as the dynamic primary point of contact for quality-related matters with customers and key stakeholders, ensuring their requirements and expectations are fully understood and exceeded.
Provide advice and support on Quality Assurance and Quality Control activities.
Contribute to delivering products that meet safety, cost, and quality standards on time.
Collaborate with Assurance Teams to help meet Programme and IPT objectives.
Monitor and support quality key performance indicators (KPIs) such as Quality Notifications, Cost of Poor Quality
Conduct Material Review Boards (MRB), and Failure Review Boards (FRB) if required
Support improvement activities across the Programme, Product, and Project lifecycle.
Promote a culture of quality and continuous improvement within the team.
Support project assurance milestones throughout the Programme and Project lifecycle.
Prepare reports and data for the Programme and Project teams.
Contribute to reducing non-conformance costs by conducting root cause analysis and corrective actions.

What you’ll bring

Demonstrated knowledge of quality management standards such as AS9100 and ISO9001, along with continuous improvement practices.
Practical experience with Quality Tools including Root Cause Corrective Action, Pattern Fault Lifecycle, Process Mapping, Verification, and First Article Inspection.
Strong analytical and logical thinking skills, with the ability to translate complex data into practical solutions that support business objectives
Experience engaging with Customers and Suppliers, demonstrating professionalism and responsiveness.
Previous experience working in a high-precision manufacturing environment or similarly detail-oriented settings.
Further education or experience in Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, Defence Electronics, or other similarly complex industries is preferred.

This is not an exhaustive list, and we are keen to hear from you even if you might not have experience in all the above. The most important skill is a good attitude and willingness to learn.
