Plant Quality Technician

About the Role

The Quality Assurance Inspector is responsible for ensuring product integrity by examining raw inputs, purchased components, and finished items at multiple stages of manufacturing. Statistical analysis of collected data supports the maintenance of high quality and reliability standards. This role requires interpreting engineering documentation and collaborating with management, production, and engineering staff to define acceptable quality levels. Selected items are inspected for dimensional accuracy, performance, and various physical or chemical characteristics, with findings recorded using statistical control techniques. The inspector partners with customer service, product service, and marketing departments to address product concerns, occasionally performing field investigations. Internal audits are performed to meet ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 requirements, and tools such as gauges are kept calibrated while controlled documentation is regularly updated. Additional responsibilities include preparing purchase requisitions for gauges and related components and supplying construction and testing data upon request. The position does not involve supervisory duties. • Perform audits of raw materials, purchased components, and finished goods throughout production. • Analyze engineering drawings, schematics, and procedural documents to set quality benchmarks. • Choose items for inspection and evaluate dimensions, performance, and mechanical, electrical, or chemical traits. • Capture test results and employ statistical quality control methods. • Draft deviation reports and propose adjustments to existing quality standards. • Execute both destructive and nondestructive testing to assess performance and material attributes. • Create visual data representations such as graphs and charts for analysis. • Work with customer service, product service, and marketing teams to resolve product issues, including on‑site investigations. • Conduct internal audits to comply with ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards. • Maintain gauge calibration and keep controlled drawings and procedures up to date. • Initiate purchase requests for gauges and related shop equipment. • Utilize Microsoft Office and MAPICS for data management and reporting. • Apply basic mathematics, geometry, and logical reasoning to problem solving.
