Hi, I do not have a job description but a question to everybody
, sorry for being slightly off-topic.
What does a Quality System Engineer do at your company? What is their task?
I am asking because it seems that my tasks are going to change at my company and I start to feel like an overpaid administrator, so I'd like to make a quick comparison check if I am right or wrong.
My tasks going to be
- release documents (no content check, just put them in the doc. handling system) - we have approx. 8000 documents to maintain (big automotive factory) - so this will cover around 90% of my time.
- internal auditing (2-3 system audits a year and 10-15 process audits)
- yearly management review
- KPI reporting (not collecting or analyzing the data just type the numbers from a spreadsheet to an online tool)
basically nothing else.
Before
I was responsible to handle ~400 docs (check content and format, general ones not product specific;also make the changes in the quality department related docs )
Internal auditing and audit follow up
Trainings on quality core tools, problem solving, basic knowlage
Data analysis - (KPIs on a monthly base)
Keyuser/admin of multiple quality software like manufacturing audit, complaint tracker, document handling, intranet site
Participating in 3rd party audits
Participating in system level issues problem solving (lessons learned)
I also been involved in introducing the ISO 50001 system.
So on one hand I kinda feel happy for the less tasks but on the other hand I start to feel a bit like my skills and knowledge is not needed anymore, as long as I do the majority of the administration work
