• Collect and analyze quality data; create trend charts and post results to the KPI board
• Maintain calibration records for all measurement and inspection equipment
• Create and update work instructions, inspection forms, and quality documentation within the ISO system
• Support and participate in ISO 9001 internal audits
• Coordinate with production supervisors and engineering teams to troubleshoot defects and drive root cause solutions
• Other duties as assigned

• Career growth pathway to Quality Manager
• ISO 9001 training & certification support
• Hands-on technical work every day

• High school diploma or equivalent required
• Technical/vocational training or associate degree in Quality Management, Manufacturing Technology, or related field — strongly preferred
• 1–2 years of quality control or inspection experience in a manufacturing setting preferred
• ASO certification or willingness to pursue
• Experience with ISO 9001 or other quality management systems is a big plus

• Ability to read and interpret engineering blueprints and GD&T drawings
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (Excel, Word, Outlook)
• Experience with Quality Management Software (QMS) and ERP systems
• Willingness to learn and operate the Keyence Measurement System

• Exceptional attention to detail — you notice what others miss
• Strong analytical and critical thinking skills
• Honest and unwavering when it comes to quality standards (no compromises!)
