Warranty Quality Administrator
Direct Hire | $28-$32/hour | Comprehensive Benefits Annual Bonus
Our client, a global manufacturer of automotive components, is seeking a Warranty Quality Administrator for its Troy facility.

- Participate in customer warranty and quality meetings
- Coordinate root cause analysis and corrective actions with Quality, Engineering, and Manufacturing
- Manage Layered Process Audit schedules, findings, and follow-up
- Support the implementation of new warranty management software
What We’re Looking For
- Manufacturing experience with a background in quality, warranty, customer quality, or field failure analysis
- Experience handling warranty returns, customer claims, or product performance concerns
- Ability to interpret technical findings and communicate them clearly to customers
- Hands-on experience inspecting, testing, troubleshooting, or tearing down manufactured components
- Strong Excel skills, including charts, graphs, and data-driven reporting
- Familiarity with 8D, A3, root cause analysis, ISO 9001, or Quality Core Tools
- SAP or ERP experience is helpful
Experience with diesel injectors, fuel systems, automotive components, or remanufactured products is highly preferred, but candidates from other product lines will be considered.
Compensation and Benefits
- $28-$32/hour, based on experience
- Annual bonus opportunity
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- Wellness incentives that may reduce medical contributions
- 401(k) with company match
- 15 vacation days to start, plus two additional paid days

This is an excellent opportunity for a quality or warranty professional who enjoys both technical problem-solving and customer interaction.
