Vos responsabilités
Summary:
As a Production Quality Technician, you will work where quality is made: on the production floor. You will use data, measurement, sound judgment, and direct communication to contain risk, solve problems, and prevent defects from moving forward. This is not a paperwork-only role. It is a hands-on position for someone who notices what others miss, asks the right questions, and follows issues through to closure.
What you will do:
Plan and perform inspections and tests for incoming material, first and last piece checks, in-process verification, and product validation.
Recognize nonconforming or suspect product, stop production when required, establish containment, and control material identification, storage, and flow.
Support production in resolving supplier and internal process issues using disciplined problem-solving methods.
Analyze process and measurement data, identify risk and trends, and make practical, risk-based recommendations following downtime, maintenance, or process change.
Document findings accurately, issue sorting orders, maintain quality records, and communicate status and actions across shifts and functions.
Participate actively in Shopfloor Management and help reduce scrap, rework, downtime, and repeat failures.
Apply IATF 16949, customer-specific requirements, Control Plans, FMEA, PPAP, APQP, and applicable quality standards in daily decisions.
The person who will thrive here:
Humble: listens, respects the knowledge of others, admits when more information is needed, and focuses on the best answer rather than personal credit.
Hungry: takes initiative, follows through, learns the process, and does not wait for someone else to own the problem.
Smart with people: communicates facts clearly, adapts to the audience, builds support, and handles disagreement professionally.
Constructively challenging: asks evidence-based questions, raises risk early, and is willing to respectfully say when the process is not ready.
Reliable under pressure: separates fact from assumption, makes timely decisions within authority, and uses clean escalation when support or a decision is needed.
