At Atlas Copco, we believe in unlocking potential – in our products, our customers, and our people. Now we’re looking for a Supplier Quality Engineer (SQE) who wants to make a real impact by ensuring that the parts and products we source meet the highest quality standards. If you know how to challenge suppliers, drive improvements, and build strong quality processes, you’ll thrive here.

Your role

As part of our Global Sourcing team, you’ll work closely with suppliers and internal stakeholders like R&D, engineering, and manufacturing. From the first prototype to serial production, you’ll be the key quality interface – leading audits, managing quality plans, and supporting supplier selection and development.

You’ll also contribute with insights to our Category Teams and Cost Engineers, helping us make smarter sourcing decisions and build stronger supplier relationships.

Your key responsibilities

• Drive supplier quality assurance activities in projects and serial production.
• Support supplier selection and development in line with sourcing strategy.
• Conduct supplier and process audits to assess and improve performance.
• Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for quality deviations.
• Collaborate with R&D, Engineering, and production to ensure manufacturability and quality.
• Monitor and follow up on supplier KPIs.
• Support suppliers in improving quality, efficiency, and sustainability.

You are part of the Global Sourcing department and report to the Supplier Quality Engineering Manager.

You likely bring:

• Experience with manufacturing processes such as casting, machining, or injection molding.
• Familiarity with ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and quality tools like FMEA, 8D, MSA, SPC/CPK.
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings and specifications.
• A university degree in engineering or equivalent practical experience.
• Fluency in English (other languages are a plus).

We encourage you to apply even if you don't meet every single requirement. We value diverse experiences and perspectives and are excited to see what you bring to the role.

In return, we offer

• A global, innovative environment where your ideas matter.
• A friendly and inclusive culture built on collaboration and respect.
