Job Description Summary

This is a high-impact, high-visibility people leadership role at one of the most dynamic intersections of GE Vernova's Gas Power supply chain. As the Regional Supplier Quality Leader – Configured Systems, AMERICAS, you will lead a team of approximately 20+ professionals — including Supplier Quality Engineers (SQEs), Supplier Quality Inspectors (SQIs), and technical leaders — through an exciting period of rapid organizational growth.

The scope of this role is expanding significantly. The AMERICAS region is absorbing a new product scope — Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSG) — in addition to the existing Material Shipped Directly (MSD) and Balance of Plant (BoP) portfolios. This creates an unprecedented leadership challenge — and an equally unprecedented career opportunity.

This is the right role for a mid-career quality or supply chain leader who thrives under complexity, is not afraid of a challenge, and is looking for a position that will accelerate their career trajectory and put them in direct contact with key customers and senior stakeholders.

As Needed (Occasional)

• Deputize for individual SQEs during coverage gaps, including Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT), Pre-Shipment Inspections (PSI), and supplier surveillance audits (Note: This is an infrequent activity, not a core daily function)
