Careerscape is recruiting on behalf of our client, a growing manufacturer in the Columbus, Ohio area, for a Quality Assurance Specialist to join their operations team. This is an opportunity to take ownership of product quality from incoming materials through final inspection, working closely with production, engineering, and supply chain teams to keep standards high and defects low.
Day to day, you will be on the production floor as much as at a desk, pulling samples, running inspections, documenting nonconformances, and following up until root causes are actually fixed. People who thrive in this role are detail oriented, comfortable using data to make a case, and confident enough to hold a line on standards even when production is under pressure to ship.
