medical device and aerospace industries . This role is critical to maintaining our

ISO 9001 ,

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

Deep, hands-on Quality leadership: at least 3–5 years where the majority of your workweek was dedicated to Quality management (not project management, R&D, or lab science with partial quality oversight). Proven success leading audits, customer quality reviews, and compliance programs. Strong experience in manufacturing, aerospace/defense, or industrial sectors. Executive presence: comfortable presenting to executives, boards, and customer representatives with data-driven decision making. Standards expertise: ISO 9001 required; ITAR, AS9100, and ISO 13485 preferred. Experience with DOT compliance, environmental safety, or logistics support is a plus. Collaborative leadership style: able to drive change and accountability through positive reinforcement rather than command-and-control. Bachelor’s degree in Quality, Engineering, Safety, or related field (advanced certifications such as CQE, CQA, or COSS preferred). Excellent communication and leadership skills—able to partner with executives and coach frontline leaders. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to assess risks and implement solutions. Please Note

This is a full-time, onsite position (5 days/week). Remote or hybrid options are not available. If you are not currently a Colorado resident, please indicate your relocation plans in your application. Manufacturing experience is required. Backgrounds limited to healthcare, chemistry, or biology labs, or general operations, are unlikely to align unless directly connected to manufacturing quality. We are seeking candidates with direct accountability for company-wide Quality systems, rather than individuals pursuing their first step into Quality leadership.
