Quality Assurance Lab Technician

Full Time

This is not your average "inspection" job. It's part quality, part lab science, and part process optimization.

• Operate precision lab equipment (spectrometers, optical microscopes, CNC machines)
• Prepare and analyze test samples to ensure chemical composition and performance standards are met
• Support Production and Metallurgy teams with real-time test results and process data
• Keep documentation tight - from test records to ISO compliance tracking (9001, 14001, 45001)
• Train others on lab procedures and equipment usage
• Maintain a clean, organized, and efficient lab space
• Keep safety, traceability, and product quality front and center at all times

We're looking for a hands-on, mechanically minded team player who thrives in a dynamic, industrial setting. Whether you're bringing direct lab experience or a strong willingness to learn, we want someone who takes pride in precision and quality.
