Product Quality Engineer

At Nexperia Manchester, we are looking for a Product Quality Engineer to join our Quality team. We offer you huge scope to develop and make a real impact on a global semiconductor manufacturer producing over 100 billion devices every year.

Please note this role is located in Manchester, UK, and we are NOT able to offer visa sponsorship now, or in the future, for this position.

What you will do

This role is critical to ensure the timely handling of customer complaints. It safeguards customer satisfaction and trust and acts as the key interface between product group quality, the customer and other functions. By driving root cause analysis, corrective actions and cross-functional alignments, the role contributes to the long-term improvement of the company and protects our reputation in the market.

Duties will include:

  • Taking ownership of complaint handling for your assigned product group and support customer requests
  • Driving structured problem-solving activities (e.g., 8D), including root cause analysis, definition of containment actions, and implementation of sustainable corrective measures
  • Monitoring and following up on quality improvement actions with internal and external stakeholders
  • Documenting, analyzing and evaluating quality data using relevant tools with respect to reliability, yield, FMEA, and customer requests
  • Supporting and contributing to product qualification activities for our products
  • Ensuring the implementation and adherence of quality procedures and standards (Nexperia, AEC, and customer-specific) in both operational and project-related activities

What you will need

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
