Quality Careers
At Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), our Quality group acts as an independent third party. We serve as technical troubleshooters and act as the voice of the customer during the engineering and manufacturing process, as well as after the sale.
We are trained in quality methodologies such as Shainin and Six Sigma, with the ability to take an impartial and critical eye to every process and every component. We are the last line of defense in preventing performance and service issues, maintaining FCA brand reputation, and otherwise securing the customer loyalty experience.
Quality employees work at our manufacturing facilities and offices around the globe, across several distinct teams that monitor our products through different stages of development:
Assembly Manufacturing Quality
We have involvement in the entire Manufacturing process, starting in a design phase, engineering, production, inspection and audits of produced vehicles. Engineers within these groups act as architects of the Quality Control Systems and design ways to protect the customer. Through the Assembly facilities, engineers work in collaboration with other functional teams to meet targets and assure that all STELLANTIS vehicles are shipped to the customer’s satisfaction.

Dimensional Control & Stamping Quality
We strive to achieve world class perceived quality levels (fit and function) by being involved in all phases of vehicle development process from design to manufacturing. We are responsible for identifying and controlling the “vital few” critical characteristics that will ensure perceived quality (fit and finish). Other areas of responsibility include in-line and off-line measurement strategy, delivery of standardized measurement systems (facilities, equipment and tools) and dimensional problem solving activities. It’s a must that all vehicles launch with critical dimensional quality. To achieve this, we must have capable processes and parts ensuring that we have good vehicle geometry.
