• Identify nonconformities, track corrective actions, and support internal audits and management reviews.

• Maintain independence from the assessment teams whose work is being reviewed in order to preserve impartiality of the quality function.

• Must be able to obtain and maintain a favorable Tier 3 background investigation resulting in a national security eligibility determination (this is not a security clearance and is not for the purpose of government employment).
