Electrical Quality Inspector

Electrical Quality Inspector

This role focuses on performing high-voltage electrical quality inspections and tests on custom-engineered electrical gear used in energy, industrial, and critical infrastructure applications. You will ensure that assembled units meet strict quality standards by conducting detailed electrical and mechanical inspections, interpreting blueprints and electrical drawings, and documenting all findings in formal reports. The position requires hands-on work in a fast-paced manufacturing environment, collaborating closely with production teams and communicating effectively in both English and Spanish.

Responsibilities

• Perform high-voltage electrical testing on assembled units using multimeters, megohmmeters, contact resistance testers, and other specialized equipment.
• Conduct Hi-Pot, insulation resistance, contact resistance, functional operation, and Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) on electrical assemblies.
• Carry out visual inspections of welds and mechanical components to verify conformance with specifications and quality standards.
• Read and interpret electrical drawings, blueprints, and mechanical drawings to verify that assemblies match design requirements.
• Use micrometers, calipers, gauges, and other precision measuring tools to confirm dimensional accuracy and tolerances.
• Prepare detailed inspection reports that document test results, observations, and any nonconformances identified during inspections.
• Create and maintain Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), ensuring that all issues are clearly described, traceable, and properly documented.
• Conduct root cause investigations for quality issues, identify underlying causes, and recommend corrective and preventive actions.
• Collaborate with production, welding, and assembly teams to communicate quality findings and support timely resolution of issues.
• Communicate effectively with English- and Spanish-speaking employees to coordinate inspections, clarify requirements, and provide feedback.
• Support internal quality audits and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives within the quality control function.
• Perform general labor tasks as needed using hand tools and power tools to support inspection setup, testing, and related activities.
• Work across multiple shops, including electrical assembly, welding, machining, and powder coating areas, to ensure consistent quality standards.
• Adhere to all safety procedures and use required personal protective equipment while working in a high-energy, production environment.

Essential Skills

• At least 5 years of quality control inspection experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Demonstrated experience with high-voltage electrical inspection and electrical testing equipment.
• Proficiency using multimeters, megohmmeters, and contact resistance testers for high-voltage testing.
• Hands-on experience performing Hi-Pot, insulation resistance, contact resistance, and functional operation tests.
• Ability to perform Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) on electrical equipment and assemblies.
• Strong ability to read and interpret electrical drawings, blueprints, and mechanical drawings.
• Proficiency using micrometers, calipers, gauges, and other precision measuring instruments.
• Experience writing inspection reports and Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) with clear and accurate documentation.
• Experience conducting root cause investigations for quality issues and recommending corrective actions.
• Background in quality control, quality assurance, audits, and inspection processes in a production environment.
• Capability to perform visual inspections, including welding inspection, to verify compliance with specifications.
• Bilingual communication skills in English and Spanish.
• High level of initiative and ownership in identifying and resolving quality issues.
• Comfort working in a fast-paced, busy production shop with multiple concurrent projects.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience with high-voltage, multi-component, or custom electrical assembly work.
• Background in welding inspection and familiarity with weld quality standards.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy in reports and documentation.
• Experience working in environments with multiple shops such as electrical assembly, welding, machining, and powder coating.
• Ability to collaborate with a large inspection team, including inspectors at different certification or experience levels.
• Demonstrated ability to adapt to a rapidly growing and changing production environment.
