Manufacturing Quality Control Technician; Plastics & Packaging

Position: Manufacturing Quality Control Technician (Plastics & Packaging)
Manufacturing Quality Control Technician Shape quality from the first molded part to the final packaged product.

You step onto the production floor with a checklist in hand and an eye for details others might miss. Gauges and calipers at the ready, you confirm press cycle times, scan molded parts for defects, and verify critical dimensions.
