About Grammy Electronics
Grammy Electronics is a consumer electronics manufacturing company based in Mahatpur, Himachal Pradesh. We operate a structured, process-driven production environment with a strong focus on quality systems, ISO compliance, and operational discipline. We are a lean organization where every role carries real ownership and accountability.
Role Overview
The Quality Head is a senior leadership position responsible for building, owning, and continuously improving the end-to-end quality function at Grammy Electronics. This includes Incoming Quality Control (IQC), Process Quality Control (PQC), and Outgoing Quality Control (OQC). The Quality Head will report directly to management and will be the single point of accountability for all quality outcomes on the shop floor.
