Job description

Position Overview

We are seeking an experienced and detail-oriented Quality Control (QC) Engineer to join our company. The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring product quality across a wide range of materials—including plastics, rubbers, steels, aluminium, and rubber-moulded components—while maintaining compliance with customer requirements and industry standards. This role requires strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with hands-on experience in quality tools, root cause analysis, and cross-functional collaboration.

Key Responsibilities

• Quality Assurance & Inspection: Perform first-article, in-process, and final inspections for CNC-machined and moulded components. Ensure compliance with engineering drawings, GD&T, and customer specifications. Operate and program quality inspection equipment, including 3D scanners, CMM, height gauges, callipers, pin gauges, and microscopes.
• Quality Systems & Compliance: Support ISO/AS quality management system requirements, ensuring documentation and traceability are maintained. Develop inspection plans, control plans, and quality checklists for new and existing parts. Conduct regular audits of machining and moulding processes.
• Problem Solving & CAPA: Perform detailed root cause analysis for non-conformances and implement effective Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA) . Liaise with internal stakeholders (production, engineering, supply chain) to resolve quality issues in a timely manner. Engage directly with customers to address quality concerns, communicate findings, and build strong technical relationships.
• Continuous Improvement: Drive initiatives to improve yield, reduce scrap, and enhance process capability. Recommend and implement improvements in machining, measurement, and quality control methods. Train operators and technicians in quality standards, tools, and inspection practices.

Requirements

• Education: Diploma or Degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Materials Engineering (or equivalent).
• Experience: Minimum 3–5 years of quality control experience in CNC machining or precision manufacturing environments. Proven exposure to diverse materials such as plastics, rubbers, steels, aluminium, and rubber moulding.
• Technical Skills: Proficiency in using quality inspection tools (3D scanner, CMM, height gauges, callipers, pin gauges, microscopes). Strong understanding of GD&T, tolerance analysis, and metrology. Hands-on knowledge of ISO 9001 or other quality standards.
• Analytical & Soft Skills: Strong problem-solving and root cause analysis skills (e.g., 8D, fishbone, 5 Whys). Experience in implementing CAPA effectively. Excellent communication skills to liaise with both internal teams and customers. High attention to detail, organised, and process-driven.
