Job Description

Day-in-the-life at Alinabal

Role: AS9100 Quality Compliance Technician

Reports to: Director of Quality | Department: 513

When the first shift starts humming, you’re already partnering with production to verify critical dimensions with calipers, micrometers, and height gauges. You capture results with precision, flag anything that’s out of spec, and coordinate swift containment so product flow continues without compromise. Before lunch, you’ve wrapped a First Article Inspection (FAI) review and queued approvals; by afternoon you’re collaborating with engineering on a root-cause analysis that feeds a robust corrective and preventive action (CAPA). You round out the day updating quality records and prepping for an upcoming audit—keeping our AS9100/ISO 9001 practices audit-ready.

• Environment: Manufacturing floor; proximity to industrial equipment, noise, and varying temperatures.
• Physical demands: Sit/stand/walk for extended periods; regularly lift up to 25 lbs and occasionally up to 50 lbs with assistance; manual dexterity and visual acuity for precision tools and detailed specs.
• Schedule: Full-time, Monday–Friday; occasional overtime or weekends for production or audits.
