Position Summary

Reporting to the Quality Leadership, the Quality Control Supervisor is a hands-on, floor-first leader responsible for daily shop-floor quality operations.

This is not a desk job or a corporate policy role . You will spend 80% of your time on the production floor working directly with assembly operators, supervisors, and manufacturing engineers to catch defects early, troubleshoot inconsistencies, and drive root cause problem-solving. If you are an experienced hands-on quality inspector, lead, or supervisor who loves being in the action of a manufacturing plant, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

  • Floor Quality Leadership:

Spend the majority of your day on the plant floor supporting production, guiding operators, and making real-time quality calls.

  • Team Supervision:

Lead, mentor, and organize the daily work of a small team of 3 quality inspectors/technicians.

  • Root Cause & Problem Solving:

Drive root cause analysis (5-Why, Fishbone, 8D) when quality issues arise and implement practical containment and corrective actions (CAPA).

  • Inspection Oversight:

Ensure incoming, in-process, and final product inspections are properly executed according to inspection plans.

  • Data & Trend Analysis:

Track defect rates and non-conformities using

Excel

to generate simple charts/histograms and identify areas for improvement.

  • Continuous Improvement:

Participate in internal audits, support process improvements, and assist with customer complaint resolutions and supplier non-conformities.

Qualifications & Requirements

  • 3 to 5 years of hands-on quality experience in a

manufacturing or industrial assembly environment

(e.g., automotive, metal fabrication, composite materials, aerospace, or industrial equipment). *(Note: Food manufacturing / FSQA backgrounds are not applicable for this role).*

  • 1–3 years of experience in a team lead, senior technician, or supervisor role overseeing a small crew.
  • Solid experience with practical root-cause techniques (5-Why, 8D, CAPA).
  • Good working knowledge of

Microsoft Excel

(ability to log data, create basic charts, histograms, and trend reports).

  • Highly accessible, visible, pragmatical, and comfortable making crucial quality decisions in a fast-paced plant setting.
  • Knowledge of ISO 9001 standards or experience with composite materials/plastics is a plus.

What We Offer

  • Competitive Compensation: $90,000 – $105,000 annually, based on experience
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision Benefits.
  • Voluntary Short-Term and Long-Term Disability.
  • 401(k) with generous company match.
  • Paid Time Off (PTO) bank and paid holidays.
  • Great, supportive team culture across Canada and the USA.
