Job description:

Quality Supervisor

GSI International | Precision Manufacturing | Chandler, AZ  — $60,000 - $90,000/yr

POSITION SUMMARY

The Quality Supervisor at GSI International is the primary owner of the ISO 9001 Quality Management System on the floor. You will ensure that every process delivers its intended output, that documentation is accurate and maintained, that inspection is performed correctly, and that continuous improvement is not just a phrase — it is a standard operating expectation. This is a leadership role with real accountability for the quality of everything GSI ships.

ABOUT GSI INTERNATIONAL

GSI International is a precision machining and manufacturing company specializing in aerospace and defense components. ISO 9001 certified and driven by a culture of continuous improvement, we deliver tight-tolerance parts and assemblies that meet the highest standards in the industry. Our team takes pride in doing the job right — quality, accountability, and innovation are not just values on a wall; they are the way we operate every single day. We are growing and looking for people who take ownership of their work, hold themselves to a high standard, and want to build something exceptional alongside a team that will back them up.

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE

• Owning ISO 9001 compliance across the operation — not as an audit exercise, but as a daily operating standard.
• Ensuring in-process and final inspection is performed correctly, consistently, and without being prompted.
• Catching non-conformances before they leave the building — every escape is a failure of the system you own.
• Developing the quality team and holding them accountable to the standards the customer expects.
• Driving continuous improvement that is measurable — not just conversations, but outcomes.

OBJECTIVES

• Ensure full compliance with ISO 9001 requirements through steady, long-term improvement in efficiency and quality.
• Review the QMS with the management team regularly to maintain compliance and drive continuous improvement.
• Ensure procedures are in place, supported by work instructions that define specific tasks and responsibilities.
• Manage and maintain Document and Data Control per ISO requirements.
• Manage in-process inspection and testing, including delegation of quality personnel requirements.
• Manage first-part, receiving, and final inspection processes.
• Manage calibration equipment and records; ensure calibration status is maintained throughout production.
• Maintain non-conforming material records and drive corrective action to closure.
