X Ray Inspector Jobs in Oregon (NOW HIRING)

Are you the person others naturally go to for help on the floor? Do you enjoy training new team members, answering questions, keeping work moving, and making sure quality standards are met?

This role is a great opportunity for someone with electronics manufacturing experience who is ready to grow into a formal leadership position. Whether you have already led a team, mentored coworkers, trained new employees, or served as the “go-to” person on your shift, this position gives you the opportunity to lead from the floor while staying hands-on in the work.

As the Quality & Assembly Team Lead, you will help support quality inspection, assembly, and rework operations while providing coaching, direction, and real-time problem-solving support to the team. This is a working lead role — you will be actively involved in the daily workflow, not managing from the sidelines.

This position follows a Monday – Wednesday | 5:00 PM – 5:00 AM schedule, giving you full-time hours in three days and four consecutive days off every week.

• 4-day weekend every week
• 10% shift differential for evening/night hours
• Overtime pay after 10 hours worked in a day
• A consistent, predictable schedule you can plan your life around
• Full-time hours in just three scheduled workdays

About the Role

The Quality & Assembly Team Lead is the connective tissue of the shift — keeping quality inspection, assembly, and rework running smoothly while making sure every team member has the support, training, and direction they need to do their best work. You're a working lead: on the floor, hands-on, solving problems in real time, and the first line of support before escalating to the Shift Supervisor or Engineering.

If you hold yourself to a high standard, take pride in developing others, and know your way around IPC workmanship requirements, this role was built for you.

What You'll Do

• Serve as a working lead across quality inspection, assembly, and rework operations — actively participating, not just directing
• Coordinate and prioritize daily workflow for a cross-functional team including Quality Inspectors I–III, Assemblers, WAVE and Selective Solder Machine Operators, and Rework Specialists
• Ensure 100% training compliance for the shift, including:
  • X-ray safety and operation training
  • IPC-A-610 CIS certification training
• Lead new employee onboarding and training coordination
• Provide real-time coaching, feedback, and issue resolution support to team members
• Capture, document, and drive resolution of production issues cross-functionally
• Partner with process owners on continuous improvement activities
• Provide performance feedback on team members to the Shift Supervisor
• Champion 6S standards and safety practices across production workspaces
• Cover Shift Supervisor responsibilities as needed in their absence

What You Bring

• 1–2 years of electronics manufacturing experience, or an equivalent combination of education and hands-on training
• Strong working knowledge of IPC-A-610 workmanship standards
• Ability to read and interpret quality documentation and written work instructions
• Basic math skills and ability to read performance data
• Strong communication skills — you can coach, document, escalate, and collaborate with equal ease
• Passing scores required on IPC Component Identification and IPC Workmanship Standards courses (in-house training provided)
• IPC-A-610 CIT certification or willingness to obtain (in-house training provided)
• Must be eligible to work in an ITAR-controlled facility (U.S. Person status required)
