Quality Engineer​/Sr. Quality Technician

Overview

Ecorobotix Inc. creates innovative robotic solutions that reduce the negative ecological impact of modern agriculture. We have developed an AI-based ultra-high precision spot spraying technology that drastically reduces the amount of chemicals used in crop fields while keeping costs competitive. The technology is currently deployed on our tractor-towed ARA machine. By joining our talented and dynamic team, you will contribute to a more sustainable, environment-friendly agriculture in an innovative scale-up at the cutting edge of technology.

We are a revolutionary organization with a great work environment that supports creativity through self-motivation.

As part of the development of our industrial activities and the optimization of our quality performance, we are looking for a Quality Engineer or Senior Quality Technician to strengthen our team. You will play a key role in monitoring the quality of our machines—from incoming components to the finished product—in a context of production ramp-up and duplication of an existing assembly line.

The machines are assembled by a third-party company, and all quality-related tasks must be managed in close collaboration with the local team of this partner. You will ensure smooth communication, alignment on standards, and effective follow-up of all quality actions on their site, including leading non-conformity investigations, tracking KPIs, and contributing to process formalization and continuous improvement. Candidates with demonstrated experience supporting the growth and scaling of a company will be strongly valued.

This role will report to the Quality Manager. Internally, close collaboration is expected with production, engineering, supply chain, quality, and industrialization teams. Externally, continuous coordination with the assembly partner located in Lyons, Kansas, is required. Occasional travel to Switzerland may be expected.

• Ensure final inspections are completed and recorded to maintain a high quality level.
• Monitor assembly processes to ensure compliance with quality standards.
• Support production teams onsite to identify and resolve quality deviations.
• Analyze deviations against technical and documentation requirements.
• Establish and track key quality indicators (non-conformities, scrap rate, response times).
• Provide regular reporting and recommend corrective actions.
• Lead internal, supplier, and customer non-conformity investigations.
• Conduct root cause analyses and implement corrective actions (8D, 5 Whys, Ishikawa).
• Contribute to continuous improvement efforts and process standardization.
• Document and model key organizational processes using BPMN 2.0.
• Support the definition and update of internal procedures.
• Strong presence in the field and close partnership with the local assembly site.
