As a quality inspector, you’ll work in a high-tech environment on advanced composite parts for the aerospace industry. No day is the same. One day you might test a new panel for a satellite, and the next you’ll coordinate with engineers about product quality. Kickstart your workday with technical depth and teamwork, in a growing team where you play a key role.
A Day in the Life of a Quality Inspector
You start your day with a cup of coffee and check the dashboard: today, you’ll be inspecting components that will soon take to the skies, or even into space. Together with your colleagues, you align on the schedule and then get straight to work.
You perform visual inspections, measure, and test components down to the millimeter. Spot a deviation? You’ll work with engineering to find a solution together. You also carry out Factory Acceptance Tests and carefully document everything to ensure complete traceability.
In the afternoon, you inspect incoming materials, calibrate measuring equipment, and monitor cleanroom conditions. At the end of the day, you update your reports and review tomorrow’s schedule with the team.
Every day is different, but one thing remains constant: you make sure only top-quality products leave the floor. And that feels great.
