Founder & CEO

Ivan Ibañez Carrasco

Quality & Automation Leader with more than 15 years leading quality strategies that drive operational excellence in automotive and high-performance manufacturing industries. Currently Quality Manager at a precision manufacturing company (USA) and Founder of PDCAhub, where industrial automation, global standards (IATF 16949, VDA 6.3, ISO 9001), and applied artificial intelligence converge.

From implementing automation projects at a Tier 1 automotive supplier to leading the quality department at Flint facilities, my career has been built on a solid foundation of control design, root cause analysis, and problem solving. Today I integrate computer vision, deep learning (TensorFlow, Python), and predictive analytics to transform traditional operations into smart manufacturing centers.
