Job description

Are you a hands-on Quality Engineer who enjoys solving problems at the source rather than simply documenting them?

We’re looking for a Quality Assurance Engineer to join an established manufacturing team. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys digging into production issues, working across engineering and manufacturing, collaborating with customers and suppliers, and turning quality data into real process improvements.

You’ll play an important role in reducing defects and scrap, improving manufacturing processes, strengthening supplier quality, and supporting an ISO 9001 quality system.

What You’ll Be Doing

Are you a hands-on Quality Engineer who enjoys solving problems at the source rather than simply documenting them?

We’re looking for a Quality Assurance Engineer to join an established manufacturing team. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys digging into production issues, working across engineering and manufacturing, collaborating with customers and suppliers, and turning quality data into real process improvements.

You’ll play an important role in reducing defects and scrap, improving manufacturing processes, strengthening supplier quality, and supporting an ISO 9001 quality system.

• Investigate product, process, and production quality issues and help drive them to resolution.
• Perform root cause analysis and develop effective corrective and preventive actions.
• Review part qualification documentation, including:

• Gage R&R studies
• PFMEAs
• Capability studies
• Control plans
• Process validations
• Develop sampling plans and establish appropriate inspection requirements.
• Determine the right testing methods, measurement equipment, and gages for manufactured components.
• Work with suppliers to develop quality plans, process controls, and inspection methods.
• Partner directly with customers and suppliers to investigate and resolve quality concerns.
• Participate in internal, customer, and supplier quality audits.
• Analyze quality data to identify trends and opportunities for continuous improvement.
• Develop and maintain process and quality documentation.
• Work closely with manufacturing and other internal teams to reduce defects, scrap, and recurring quality issues.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Quality Assurance, or a related technical field, or an equivalent combination of education and relevant experience.
• 3–5 years of Quality Engineering / Quality Assurance experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Working knowledge of ISO 9001 and manufacturing quality systems.
• Experience with quality and problem-solving tools such as:
• 8D corrective action

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Good written and verbal communication skills, especially when working with customers and suppliers.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office.
• Experience with Epicor is a plus, but not required.

Why This Role?

This isn't a quality role where you'll spend all day behind a desk.

You’ll have the opportunity to work directly with manufacturing processes, investigate real production challenges, collaborate with engineering, customers, and suppliers, and see the impact of your improvements.

If you enjoy root-cause problem solving, manufacturing quality, and continuous improvement, we'd love to hear from you.
