A part-time QA Engineer contract is a temporary work agreement where a quality assurance (QA) engineer is hired to work less than full-time hours, typically on a specific project or for a set period. These roles involve testing software, identifying bugs, and ensuring quality standards are met, but with a flexible or reduced schedule compared to full-time positions. Contract QA engineers often work remotely or on-site, depending on the employer's needs, and may be paid hourly or per project. This arrangement is ideal for companies needing expertise for a limited time or for individuals seeking flexible work schedules.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a part time QA engineer contract?

To thrive as a Part Time QA Engineer (Contract), you need a solid understanding of software testing methodologies, attention to detail, and experience with test case creation and execution, often supported by a relevant degree or hands-on experience. Familiarity with test management tools (like Jira or TestRail), automated testing frameworks (such as Selenium), and version control systems (like Git) is typically required. Strong analytical thinking, time management, and clear communication skills help you collaborate effectively and deliver results on a flexible schedule. These abilities ensure the delivery of high-quality software within project constraints, even while working part-time and remotely.

Staying proactive in providing timely feedback and documenting test results helps maintain project momentum. Flexibility and strong organizational skills are essential, as you may be balancing multiple projects or adjusting to changing priorities set by the core team.

  • Identifying and documenting parts that do not meet specifications through Nonconformance Reports (NCRs).
  • Working with Manufacturing, Engineering, Sales, and other Quality team members to resolve questions or quality concerns.
  • Completing inspection documentation accurately and efficiently.
  • Helping keep production moving without sacrificing quality or accuracy.
  • Participating in training, cross-training, and continuous improvement efforts.

What We Are Looking For:

  • High school diploma or equivalent.
  • Strong basic math skills.
  • Strong attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Basic computer skills and willingness to learn new technology and systems.
  • Ability to understand and apply technical information.
  • Dependability and a strong commitment to workplace safety.

Even Better if You Have:
  • Manufacturing or machining experience.
  • Experience reading blueprints or engineered drawings.
  • Experience using precision measuring equipment.
  • Quality inspection or Quality Assurance experience.
  • Tool & die experience or experience in a related skilled trade.

Why JV Manufacturing?
A part-time position doesn't mean you aren't part of the team. JV Manufacturing offers a temperature-controlled manufacturing environment, paid lunch, great employee benefits for eligible employees, training and development opportunities, and a workplace focused on safety, quality, teamwork, and continuous improvement. You'll work alongside experienced manufacturing professionals and have the opportunity to continue building your technical and inspection skills.

This is a part-time position with hours established based on business needs and candidate availability. Additional hours may occasionally be available or required depending on production needs.
Interested? Whether you're an experienced quality professional looking to scale back your hours, have a manufacturing background and want to move into Quality, or simply want to put your technical skills to use without committing to a traditional 40-hour schedule, we want to hear from you.
Apply today to join the JV Manufacturing Quality team.
