We are seeking a hands-on, solutions-driven Quality Engineer to join our growing team in a dynamic manufacturing environment. This role is ideal for someone who thrives on solving problems at the root cause level and is passionate about improving processes through data and sound engineering methods - not just coordinating or auditing.
If you're looking to apply your engineering expertise where it matters most - on the floor, with the team, solving real production challenges - this is the opportunity for you.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead and execute process qualifications, supporting engineering and production teams to ensure stability and repeatability of manufacturing processes
- Perform root cause analysis using data and practical engineering methods to resolve product and process issues
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to implement corrective actions and drive continuous improvement initiatives
- Provide inspection support (as needed), ensuring standards are met, but not as a primary function
- Utilize your plastics or molding experience (especially compression molding) to identify process improvements and product enhancements
- Participate in production trials, DOE studies, and capability assessments
Preferred Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree in Engineering or related technical field
- 3+ years of hands-on quality engineering experience in a manufacturing environment
- Strong skills in root cause analysis, process troubleshooting, and corrective action implementation
- Experience with plastics manufacturing, especially compression molding, is a strong plus
- Working knowledge of metrology and data analysis tools (Keyence experience is a bonus, but not required)
