Director of Quality Assurance & Logistics

@ Coastal Machine & Supply

Coastal Machine & Supply, Inc. is seeking a Director of Quality Assurance & Logistics to lead and scale our quality systems, compliance framework, and logistics operations as we continue our growth in mission-critical manufacturing.

This is a senior leadership role responsible for ensuring product conformity, regulatory compliance, and on-time delivery—while building a disciplined, data-driven quality and logistics organization that supports long-term scalability.

About the Role:

- The Director of Quality Assurance & Logistics owns the Quality Management System (QMS) and Logistics function end-to-end. This role partners closely with Manufacturing, Sales, and Executive Leadership to ensure Coastal consistently meets customer, regulatory, and operational expectations.

- You will lead Quality Assurance, Safety, Shipping & Receiving, and Compliance, while driving continuous improvement across audits, corrective actions, supplier quality, and delivery performance.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Lead and continuously improve the Quality Management System (APIQ1/AS9100 / ISO-based)
  • Own internal, customer, and third-party audits and corrective action systems
  • Establish quality strategy, metrics, and governance across the organization
  • Oversee Shipping & Receiving, logistics workflows, and OTD performance
  • Drive root cause analysis, CoPQ reduction, and continuous improvement initiatives
  • Partner with Manufacturing and QC leadership to ensure inspection rigor and process control
  • Build, mentor, and scale high-performing QA and Logistics teams
  • Serve as the senior point of contact for customer quality and compliance matters

What Success Looks Like:

  • Audit readiness is continuous—not reactive
  • Clear separation and alignment between Quality Assurance and Quality Control
  • Measurable reductions in CoPQ and repeat NCRs
  • Consistent on-time delivery and shipping accuracy
  • A proactive, systems-driven quality culture embedded across the shop

Why Coastal?

Coastal Machine & Supply is a fully digital precision manufacturing company serving customers in aerospace, defense, space, and energy. We are a family-oriented organization with a strong culture of accountability, partnership, and execution—focused on building long-term careers, not just filling roles.

 

If you are a quality leader who wants to build systems, lead people, and make a measurable impact, we want to hear from you.


Qualifications:

Ideal Background

  • Senior quality leadership experience in precision manufacturing
  • Strong working knowledge of API Q1 / AS9100 / ISO quality systems
