Join LAKOS Filtration Solutions as a Quality Control Inspector and play a hands-on role in ensuring our world-class filtration systems meet the highest standards before reaching customers. You’ll be a critical voice on the production floor—catching issues early, driving improvements, and helping our team deliver products we’re all proud of.

• Identify and document non-conforming materials; coordinate with the Quality Assurance team to initiate timely corrective actions.
• Maintain inspection records, deviation logs, and quality tracking reports.
• Partner with engineering and production teams on root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives.

What We’re Looking For

• Quality or inspection experience in a manufacturing or warehouse setting is a plus—but we welcome motivated candidates eager to build their QA career.

• Strong attention to detail and ability to follow procedures with accuracy and consistency.
• Comfortable with Microsoft Office (Excel, Outlook) and standard data entry.
