Position Overview:
The Quality Technician is a hands-on inspection role focused on the parts and components that go into our machines — both during manufacturing and as spare and break-fix parts shipped to machines in the field. You'll be the last line of defense ensuring that nonconforming parts don't make it into a build or out to a customer site, and that known quality issues are actively screened before anything ships.

Perform detailed incoming inspection of mechanical and electromechanical parts against engineering drawings, specifications, and purchase order requirements
Verify dimensions, material, finish, and workmanship using standard hand measurement tools including calipers, micrometers, and gauges

Maintain accurate receiving inspection records and support supplier quality tracking
Spare & Field Replacement Parts

Quality Systems & Continuous Improvement
Maintain inspection records, nonconformance logs, and calibration documentation in support of the QMS

Support the development and upkeep of quality alerts and lessons-learned documentation to prevent repeat escapes to the field
