Inspector, Quality Assurance - QA​/QC, Quality Control - QC Analysts​/Managers

Our client, precision manufacturing and quality assurance is seeking a Inspector to join their team. As a Inspector, you will be part of the TRD - Toyota Racing supporting quality inspection and production support. The ideal candidate will have a strong commitment to accuracy, a sharp eye for visual detail, and the ability to interpret engineering drawings and specifications which will align successfully in the organization.

• Perform manual dimensional inspections of tight-tolerance machine components, assemblies, and finished products from external suppliers and in-house manufacturing, measuring features and identifying visual defects as small as 10 microns (0.010 mm) to ensure conformance with design specifications, engineering drawings, and quality standards.
• Conduct receiving, first article, in-process, and final inspections using precision measurement tools including micrometers, calipers, height gauges, bore gauges, pin and thread gauges, dial indicators, and optical comparators.
• Evaluate parts under proper lighting and magnification for cosmetic and surface defects (e.g., scratches, dents, burrs, porosity, and plating/coating flaws) and disposition them per established visual standards and boundary samples.
• Measure surface finish on machined surfaces using profilometers, surface roughness testers, and surface finish comparator standards per engineering drawings and customer specifications (e.g., Ra, Rz), identify out-of-tolerance conditions, and report results for quality review and disposition.
• Enter inspection data into the QMS software with 100% accuracy, verifying all entries before submission so reliable data is available for statistical analysis and quality reporting.

• High school diploma or GED or equivalent combination of education and experience.
• Minimum 10 years’ experience in a Quality Control environment performing manual dimensional and visual inspection of machine components across receiving, first article, and final inspection.
• Strong understanding and application of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) per ASME/ANSI standards, including interpretation of engineering drawings and specifications.
• Proficiency with precision measuring instruments and setup of inspections on a surface plate; hands-on CMM experience (Calypso software) is a plus.
• Experience entering and maintaining inspection data in QMS software with 100% accuracy, along with sustained concentration to remain focused during repetitive, high-precision inspections.

• Work in a quality-focused environment where precision, traceability, and reliable documentation matter.
• Opportunity to contribute to root cause and corrective action efforts by communicating quality concerns to Quality, Engineering, and Production teams.
• Hands-on role using a wide range of precision measurement tools and inspection methods.
• Clear expectations for safety, 5S standards, and maintaining calibrated inspection equipment.
• Structured schedule Monday through Friday with a consistent shift window.

• Medical and Prescription Drug Plans
• Supplemental Life Insurance
• Short Term Disability Insurance
• 401(k)
