• Conducting thorough root cause analysis and supporting the implementation of corrective and preventative actions.

• Carrying out inspections and testing of mechanical components and finished products to ensure they meet required specifications and quality standards.

• Performing regular calibration and verification of measuring equipment to ensure accuracy and reliability.

• Supporting continuous improvement initiatives designed to reduce non-conformances, improve processes and strengthen overall product quality.

• Producing clear and accurate quality documentation, investigation reports and recommendations.

To be successful in this role, you will ideally have:

• Previous experience as a Quality Engineer within a manufacturing environment, with a strong mechanical bias.

• The ability to confidently read and interpret engineering drawings and technical documentation.

• A good understanding of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.

• Practical experience using structured problem-solving tools such as 8D, CAPA and 5 Why.

• Experience carrying out root cause investigations and developing effective corrective and preventative action plans.

• A strong understanding of quality management systems, with knowledge of ISO 9001 and/or ISO 13485 considered advantageous.

• Experience using Aberlink CMMs or similar coordinate measuring equipment would be beneficial.

• Excellent attention to detail and the ability to produce clear, concise and accurate quality documentation.

• A proactive, continuous improvement mindset with a genuine desire to prevent recurring quality issues.
