Production Quality Data Analyst (Inspection & Calibration)

Picture this: you spot a subtle trend in your inspection data before it becomes a defect. You verify with calibrated tools, collaborate with production to adjust the process, open a corrective action, and keep customer shipments on schedule. If that sounds like your kind of impact, read on.

Ensure consistent product quality by validating materials, in-process work, and finished goods—without slowing flow—while building a reliable data picture of process health.

• Conduct inspections and tests at key points in manufacturing to confirm compliance with company standards and customer requirements.
• Balance precision with pace—safeguard product integrity while maintaining production rates.
• Record results, trend critical inspection metrics, and create clear inspection reports in Excel and Word.
• Initiate and monitor corrective and preventive actions using sound technical judgment and structured problem solving.
• Train production personnel in inspection techniques and quality procedures as needed.
• Keep inspection equipment and other critical tools calibrated and maintained on schedule.
• Work across departments to resolve inspection issues quickly and effectively.
• Escalate quality or compliance concerns immediately.
• Operate within our Quality and Environmental Management Systems and support internal and external ISO audits.
