• ~5+ years’ manufacturing quality experience
• Strong ISO experience and hands-on inspection skills (calipers, micrometers, gauges)
• Solid Excel & computer skills (Mac environment)
• Experience in plastics and/or metalworking manufacturing
• Automotive experience and familiarity with PPAP processes
• Exposure to AS9100 (aerospace quality)
• Experience with automated gauging systems and electronic data collection
