Data Analyst (f/m/d) - Quality Management - First in Quality

Do you enjoy connecting complex data across systems? Do you believe that data without action is wasted potential? Do you think new outcomes require new ways of thinking?

In this role, you will help shape the future of medical technology at a leading German medical device manufacturer—ensuring world‑class quality, regulatory confidence, and patient safety on a global scale.

This is not a role for passive analysis. It is for people who challenge assumptions, turn insights into direction, and want their work to measurably improve lives.

If you want to be part of real change—rather than observe it—this is your moment.

Your Responsibilities

• Build a lifecycle “single source of truth” for AIS quality
  
  

You define and maintain a lifecycle‑oriented data model that consolidates quality‑relevant information across the entire product lifecycle

You connect and harmonize data from key functional systems such as SAP C3, Service tools, JIRA, MES and rework data to enable consistent reporting and end‑to‑end traceability

You establish and maintain data governance standards, including definitions, ownership, and quality checks, to ensure accuracy and reliability

• Deliver a centralized dashboard and recurring reporting
  
  

You implement and continuously enhance a centralized dashboard providing visibility across Operations, Service and R&D, enabling proactive decision‑making

You prepare regular reporting and transparent progress updates for leadership and key stakeholders

You translate raw data into actionable insights related to core KPIs—such as complaint trends, work orders, or cost of non‑quality—to support preventive quality measures

• Enable analytics that shift the organization from reacting to prevention
  
  

You perform deep‑dive analyses to identify root causes, trend patterns and early warning indicators that support preventive action planning

You contribute to predictive and proactive analytics initiatives aligned with the digital PLM vision (e.g., quality prediction, lifecycle feedback loops)

You communicate insights clearly and ensure follow‑up actions are owned and executed by responsible stakeholders

• Drive benchmarking and best‑practice identification
  
  

You support internal and external lifecycle benchmarking efforts to capture best practices and uncover improvement opportunities

You help define mandatory data sources and identify opportunities for AI‑supported analysis during the diagnostic and concept phases of the program

• Promote cross‑functional enablement and adoption
  
  

You collaborate closely with Operations, Service, R&D and Quality teams to improve data capture practices and reduce manual, ad‑hoc data handling

You contribute to strengthening transparency, collaboration and data‑driven decision‑making across the organization
