About the Opportunity

If you live for precision, thrive on solving complex production puzzles, and get an odd sense of joy from a flawless SPC chart, we want to meet you.

Our client, a world‑class manufacturer, seeks a Process Quality Engineer who’s equal parts data geek, problem solver, and communication pro. You’ll serve as the key bridge between customers, production, and leadership, ensuring products not only meet standards, but set them.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Serve as the go‑to liaison between Quality and Manufacturing, ensuring customer specs are met (and exceeded).
• Tackle customer complaints with 8D precision – hunting root causes like a detective with a torque wrench.
• Lead continuous improvement initiatives using ISO/IATF, SPC, and common sense.
• Support engineering and sales teams on new product launches and application challenges.
• Roll up sleeves for layer process audits, quality system updates, and occasional emergency issues.
• Travel occasionally to visit customers and suppliers.

What You Bring

• A Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Industrial, or Metallurgical Engineering (or equivalent experience).
• At least 5 years of experience in manufacturing.
• Hands‑on experience with ISO/IATF standards, statistical methods, and quality core tools (SPC, FMEA, TQM, etc.).
• Analytical mindset, excellent communication, and ability to lead cross‑functional teams.
• Bonus: Kaizen, DOE, fastener manufacturing experience.

What’s in It for You

• Competitive pay.
• 401(k) + matching.
• Full suite of medical, dental, vision, and life insurance.
• Tuition reimbursement and employee discounts.
• Flexible spending accounts, referral bonuses, and more perks.
