Requirements

Proven experience as a quality inspector in the aerospace, automotive, or high-tech manufacturing industry.

Strong knowledge of technical drawings, blueprints, and inspection methods.

Great attention to detail: you spot imperfections that others overlook.

Knowledge of ISO standards, quality systems, and reporting procedures.
Availability to work rotating morning and afternoon shifts each week.

Schedule: 7-15 hours for the morning shift. 14-22 hours for the afternoon shift.

Desirable requirements

Experience in non-destructive testing (NDT).

Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing or Six Sigma.

Basic knowledge of composite materials or advanced alloys.

Candidate profile

You are not just an inspector; you are a perfectionist with a purpose. You thrive in dynamic and demanding environments where every detail counts, driven by a curiosity to constantly question how things can be done better, faster, and smarter. You are a problem solver who doesn't just detect failures, but analyzes them in depth, discovers what went wrong, and helps correct it. Most importantly, you take ownership, knowing that when you are part of a team transforming aerospace defense, you don't wait for someone else to lead the way—you set the standard.
