We are seeking a detail-driven Quality Inspector with hands-on experience in metal manufacturing and fabrication inspection. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys working on the production floor, takes pride in precision, and has strong measuring skills.

  • Document inspection results and maintain accurate quality records

  • Identify and tag non-conforming parts based on specifications

  • Verify travelers, BOMs, and routing requirements are followed

  • Understanding of manufacturing quality standards and tolerances

  • Familiarity with ISO 9001, SPC, PPAP, or FAI (preferred but not required)


SUCCESS TRAITS

  • Extremely detail-oriented — notices what others miss

  • Comfortable saying “no” when parts are out of spec

  • Dependable with strong attendance history

  • Calm and professional in a fast-paced production environment

  • Strong communicator with production teams and supervisors

  • Organized and consistent with documentation


PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

  • Ability to stand, walk, bend, and move throughout a manufacturing floor

  • Frequent use of hands for measuring and inspection tasks

  • Ability to lift up to 10 lbs as needed

  • Comfortable working in a loud, industrial environment with PPE required


WHY THIS JOB?

  • Stable Monday–Friday schedule (no weekends)

  • Competitive pay based on experience ($20–$25/hr DOE)

  • Opportunity to work in a skilled manufacturing environment

  • Chance to grow your quality and technical skillset

  • Be a key part of ensuring high-quality production output
