  • You uphold ISO 13485, GMP, cleanroom, and SOP standards without compromise
Is this you?
  • 1–2 years of hands-on quality inspection in manufacturing
  • Experience with plastics or injection molding (strong plus)
  • Comfortable reading blueprints and applying tolerances
  • Ready for a 12-hour, 2-2-3 rotating schedule (weekends included)
  • Able to stand for extended periods and lift up to 30 lbs with or without accommodation
  • Meticulous, organized, and a clear communicator
Grow your edge
  • Medical device or other regulated manufacturing exposure
  • Hands-on with CMM or advanced inspection technologies
  • SPC know-how and familiarity with quality systems
Knowledge that sets you apart
  • Quality Inspection Experience; Continuous Improvement
  • ISO 13485, FDA Regulations, and GMP foundations
  • Statistical Process Control (SPC)
  • Pharmaceutical environments and SOPs
  • Tolerance analysis; Precision measurement and hand metrology
  • Blueprint reading expertise
Tools of the trade
  • Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM)
  • Measurement gauges
  • Calipers and micrometers
Shift structure
  • 2-2-3 rotation on 12-hour shifts
  • Days: 6:00am – 6:00pm
  • Nights: 6:00pm – 6:00am (10% night differential)
