Job summary

Jobsought is seeking a experienced Quality Engineer to own process control, inspection standards, and corrective actions across a production line in Massachusetts. The role emphasizes data-driven decision making, PFMEA, and tight metrology control in a fast-paced electromechanical environment.

You will lead root-cause analysis, manage supplier quality, and drive continuous improvement through SPC, eight-discipline problem solving, and rigorous GD&T reviews.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in mechanical, electrical, industrial or materials engineering, or equivalent experience.
• Five or more years in quality engineering for electromechanical or precision hardware, with hands-on ownership of a production line.
• Fluency in advanced product quality planning, FMEA, control plans, SPC, MSA, FAI and eight-discipline problem solving.
• Hands-on metrology: CMM, GD&T, gauge calibration and repeatability studies.
• Ability to turn data into actionable decisions for engineers and leaders.

Responsibilities

• Define critical-to-quality characteristics, control plans and inspection standards for each station, and keep them current as the design changes.
• Set up and run incoming, in-process and final inspection with sampling plans, and chair the MRB for non-conforming material.
• Lead root cause problem solving on build issues, test failures, supplier defects and field escapes, using 8D, 5-Why, fishbone and DOE, through verified CAPA.
• Keep processes stable and capable with SPC and capability studies.
• Run the metrology lab: coordinate measuring machine programming, vision and optical measurement, torque and force verification, and gauge calibration.
• Prove every gauge and test station with MSA before data is trusted.
• Drive PFMEA and error-proofing with Manufacturing Engineering.
• Own supplier quality for production parts: PPAP, first article inspection and supplier corrective actions through to closure.
• Review engineering changes, GD&T and tolerance stacks, and give design-for-inspection feedback early.
• Report first pass yield, DPMO, escape rate, scrap and cost of poor quality to leadership weekly, with the actions behind the numbers.
