  • Quality Engineers - one of those roles that seem to be defined slightly differently in each company. But the general gist is that they improve and define quality more than they control it.
    This function is an engineer foremost and quality of products and processes is field that they're engineering. That makes it a more technological and improvement-focused role than QA or QC specialists.
    Maybe your company doesn't have quality engineers, but if you do have process/product engineers, process technologists or process specialists, then you basically have this role under another name. These roles are not always in the quality department - perhaps yours are with New Product Development, Technology, or even in Production.
    Whatever the name and department, these roles are the main practitioners of Six Sigma and also very important for the Quality pillar in TPM-like systems.

    Loved this! I'm currently starting training to become an Associate Quality Engineer, (currently in a QA role) this was a great explanatoin of the differences in roles.

      Thanks for sharing that - I'm glad you liked the video and hope it will help you along in your journey!
      If you every run into CI or QM related questions or just have a suggestion for future videos - don't hesitate to ask, a good question makes a much more useful video (and at least one person will be looking forward to it 😅)

    I enjoyed it all
    The way you explain instead of using buzzwords was really pleasant
    I love to someday be a QE In quality departeman.
    I hope you have videos on maintenance or reliability aswell
    This was my first video
    I am. Nearly getting my industrial engineering bachelor and be more focused.
    You gained a sub and thank you :)))

      Great to hear you liked it - thanks for sharing that feedback.
      It's exactly what I want to do with my videos: skip the buzz and get to how you use it in practice. I definitely have videos on reliability, not as many on maintenance - so that's some useful feedback too: I should spend some screen time on the mechanical side of Continuous Improvement 😅

      @@Pratik0111 It would definitely help, especially since your (change) management skills are likely not going to be your strong side when you're fresh out of college. But know that as a quality engineer you don't per se need mechanical technical skills (you don't need to be able to operate or maintain machinery) - you need skills like process thinking, quality deployment, data analysis, writing clear instructions and an understanding of the quality measures in your line of business.
