Original job description

Quality Engineer

Position Overview

Growing advanced industrial manufacturing team in the Kitchener/ Waterloo/Guelph area is looking for a versatile Quality Engineer to oversee both shop-floor manufacturing standards and supply base performance. This dynamic role focuses on maintaining rigorous internal standards, managing component reliability, conducting quality audits, and leading root-cause resolution across production processes. The ideal candidate brings a balanced background in shop-floor metrology, vendor quality oversight, and structural problem-solving.

Core Responsibilities

In-House Quality & Metrology: Drive operational quality across production lines, troubleshoot floor issues, and perform precise component verification utilizing CMM equipment and shop-floor measurement tools.
Vendor & Supply Chain Oversight: Partner with vendor engineering teams to monitor incoming component quality, evaluate performance analytics, and lead supplier quality development and system audits.
Defect Resolution & Root Cause: Facilitate multi-disciplinary teams in investigating non-conformances using structured methodologies (8D, 5-Why, Fishbone) to ensure long-term containment and prevention.
Launch & Quality Planning: Guide new program introductions through APQP phases, execute PPAP validation for parts and engineering revisions, and review fixture and gauge design specs.
Compliance & Continuous Improvement: Support internal Quality Management System (QMS) frameworks, ensure adherence to industry standards, and champion continuous process improvement initiatives.

Key Requirements

Technical & Metrology Skills: Experience with Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) is required. Strong proficiency in reading blueprints and applying GD&T standards is essential.
Professional Experience: 3 to 10 years of experience in quality or manufacturing engineering within an industrial, assembly, or mechanical manufacturing setup.
Education & Certifications: Engineering degree (or Diploma). ASQ Certified Quality Engineer (CQE) or related QMS certification is preferred.
Core Tooling Expertise: Applied understanding of core quality frameworks including APQP, PPAP, FMEA, control plans, and MSA.
Operational Profile: Strong organizational and project lead capabilities; no international travel required.
