They investigate potential product failures, determine the root cause, and develop comprehensive reports, including corrective actions, to eliminate future occurrences. They often work in cross-functional teams, liaising with design, manufacturing, and quality assurance departments, to ensure products meet specified standards and performance criteria. Their work is vital in enhancing product reliability and improving customer satisfaction.
