As a Quality Control Technician, you will serve as the final quality gate in the manufacturing process - no batch is released to filling and no filled product moves to finished goods without your approval. You will perform testing across Titan's full product line (ArmorGuard®, UltraBrite®, AlumaBond®, AlumaMax®, TransGuard®, and PowerFoil®) and ensure every product meets customer specifications, internal standards, and applicable industry requirements before shipment.
The Quality Control Technician reports to our QC Manager / Production Supervisor.

All required tasks associated with a Quality Control Technician:
  • Compliance with all site safety rules, PPE requirements, and SDS procedures for all materials handled.
  • QC Lab housekeeping, organization, and 5S standards maintained every shift.
  • Batch approval and hold/release testing: viscosity, grind fineness, color (visual and spectrophotometer/Delta E), gloss, weight per gallon, and film appearance (drawdown panels).
  • Drawdown panel preparation: substrate selection, coating application, and cure per bake schedule.
  • Spectrophotometer operation, calibration verification, and color standard library maintenance.
  • Clean check evaluation for filling operations; approve or reject samples promptly to support production throughput.
  • In-process quality checks on batches during production (viscosity, grind, color, appearance) as requested.
  • Physical and performance testing: adhesion (ASTM D3359), flexibility (T-bend, mandrel bend, reverse impact), hardness (ASTM D3363), film thickness, gloss, and chemical resistance (MEK rub).
  • Instrument calibration verification at shift start; maintain calibration records for all QC instruments.
  • Accurate, real-time completion of all QC records, batch tickets, and ERP data entry (Datacor).
  • Retain sample collection, labeling, and storage per Titan's retention schedule.
  • Customer complaint support: retrieve retain samples, prepare comparison panels, document investigation findings.
  • Raw material incoming inspection when required; verify against COAs and incoming material specifications.
  • Waste and sample disposal per Titan's waste handling procedures and EPA requirements.
  • Quarterly inventory counts and department paperwork as assigned.
  • Notification of equipment failures or out-of-spec conditions to the QC Manager and Production Supervisor.

Job Qualifications
  • 2+ years of experience in a quality control or laboratory testing role, preferably in paint, coatings, or chemical manufacturing.
  • High school diploma or GED required; Associate's degree in chemistry, chemical technology, or a related technical field preferred.
  • Demonstrated proficiency with color measurement instruments (spectrophotometer), viscosity testing equipment, gloss meters, and film thickness gauges.
  • Ability to prepare drawdown panels and perform standard coatings tests (adhesion, flexibility, hardness, chemical resistance).
  • Knowledge of Health, Safety, Environmental, and Quality Regulations.
  • Strong attention to detail and the ability to work precisely and consistently with testing instruments.
  • Strong documentation skills: accurate, legible, real-time completion of quality records.
  • Team-player attitude with excellent communication, problem-solving, and decision-making abilities.
  • Ability to lift and move objects up to 30 lbs regularly.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in coil coatings, extrusion coatings, or industrial paint manufacturing QC.
  • Familiarity with NCCA, AAMA, and DASMA testing standards.
  • Experience with metallic and textured coating evaluation.
  • Experience supporting customer complaint investigations and root cause analysis.
  • Familiarity with Datacor or similar coatings industry ERP systems.
