  • Verify effectiveness of process controls and operator training
  • Document audit findings using objective, traceable evidence
  • Ensure corrective actions are assigned, tracked, and verified for effectiveness
  • Support layered process audits and identification of systemic issues

Required Qualifications & Technical Skills

  • Experience in manufacturing inspection, quality assurance, or similar technical role
  • Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and technical specifications
  • Working knowledge of ISO-based quality systems
  • Proficiency with common inspection tools and measurement equipment
  • Understanding of measurement systems, uncertainty, and inspection bias
  • Familiarity with basic data analysis, trending, and SPC concepts
  • Strong documentation and record-keeping discipline
  • Ability to operate effectively in a fast-paced production environment

Core Competencies & Attributes
  • Results-driven with a strong sense of ownership and accountability
  • Eager to learn and develop within quality and process auditing disciplines
  • Detail-oriented with a high level of accuracy and consistency
  • Analytical thinker with a proactive, problem-solving mindset
  • Collaborative team player who works effectively with operators and cross-functional teams
  • Organized and capable of managing multiple priorities with guidance
  • Strong follow-through on tasks, actions, and commitments
  • Comfortable working in a regulated, cleanroom manufacturing environment

Career Path & Development
This role provides a foundational pathway into advanced quality functions, including:
  • Process Auditor / Senior Quality Technician
  • Quality Engineer
  • Supplier Quality or Advanced Quality Planning (AQP) roles
  • Continuous Improvement / Operational Excellence leadership

Work Environment
  • Cleanroom manufacturing setting requiring adherence to strict contamination control protocols
