Additional Skills & Qualifications

Work Environment

You will join a small, collaborative quality team of approximately five people, including four QC Technicians and one Quality Engineer, in a hands-on manufacturing and quality inspection setting. The role involves frequent use of precision measurement equipment and a significant amount of documentation and record keeping, making accuracy and attention to detail especially important.
