Working within Lyten’s Supplier Onboarding Management (SOM) and Nonconformity Management (NCM) framework, the role spans the full lifecycle from Potential Supplier Assessment through Safe Launch exit and into ongoing performance management. Based at Lyten’s office in Västerås with frequent travel to the mass-production plant in Skellefteå and to global supplier sites. Reporting to the Senior Manager, Supplier Quality.
Key Responsibilities
Lead supplier onboarding from nomination through Safe Launch exit: Potential Supplier Assessment (PSA), APQP gate reviews (G0–G5), PPAP/SPAR evaluation, and Run@Rate capacity verification
Conduct VDA 6.3 process audits and IATF 16949 / ISO 9001 quality system audits at global supplier sites; manage all findings through to documented, verified closure
Own the nonconformity lifecycle: classify incoming nonconformities (CC, SC, Standard), coordinate 24-hour IQC containment, drive 8D problem-solving, evaluate supplier 8D quality, and apply Controlled Shipping Levels (CSL1/CSL2/CSL3) where warranted
Monitor and report supplier KPIs (PPM, Cpk/Ppk, OTD, audit score) through structured scorecards and periodic business reviews; escalate negative trends and initiate Supplier Improvement Plans (SIP) where required
Review and approve supplier PPAP packages (PSW, PFMEA, Control Plans, MSA, capability studies) to Lyten’s acceptance criteria; issue Part Submission Warrants and maintain PPAP status through the SOM tracker
Track Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ) in the NCR system and coordinate chargeback recovery with Purchasing
Translate customer-specific requirements (CSRs) and Critical/Significant Characteristics (CC/SC) into supplier quality agreements and IQC acceptance criteria
Assess and process supplier change requests and deviation requests (CR/DR; evaluate quality risk before any approval is granted
Serve as the primary technical liaison between Lyten Production Quality, Procurement, and R&D for all supplier-facing quality topics
Author and continuously improve SQE processes, work instructions, and templates
Represent Lyten Quality in supplier technical reviews, cross-functional launch meetings, and external audit contexts as required

VDA 6.3 Process Auditor (P2/P3) certification or equivalent process audit experience at battery or automotive suppliers; VDA 6.3 certification is a strong advantage
Working knowledge of IATF 16949 requirements; IATF 16949 Lead Auditor certification is a plus
Solid command of statistical quality methods: process capability (Cpk/Ppk), SPC control charts, and measurement system analysis (MSA/GR&R)
Proven track record managing multiple concurrent supplier qualification programmes from nomination through Safe Launch exit and into volume production
Specific skills & Knowledge
Excellent English written and oral communication skills
Strong analytical mindset: able to distil supplier quality data into concise management reporting and actionable corrective-action direction
Confident, methodical auditor: experienced at structured interviewing, objective finding documentation, and driving findings to verified closure
Commercially aware: understands Cost of Poor Quality (COPQ) implications and drives systematic value recovery through the NCM process
Highly organized; able to priorities effectively across a global, multi-commodity supplier base under competing deadlines without losing rigor
Proactive and self-directed; comfortable working in a scale-up environment where processes are still being defined and refined
