Cedar Falls, Iowa, United States SQA Services Full time
About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Quality Assurance Inspector to join our team at SQA Services.

This part-time role is critical in ensuring that all products meet strict quality standards before they progress to subsequent stages or are shipped to customers.

You will be responsible for performing source inspections, both in-process and final, on critical components. Your meticulous approach will ensure that products meet high-quality standards.

The ideal candidate will have experience with inspection methodologies, quality standards, and compliance auditing.

You will work as an extension of our client's supplier quality teams, leveraging our network of quality professionals in over 50 countries.

We offer a competitive salary of $29-$31 per hour, plus benefits.

Key Responsibilities
  • Perform inspections on incoming materials from external providers, including specialized processing services (e.g., nickel plating).
  • Conduct in-process and final inspections of critical product features, including witness inspection tasks such as CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) program runs.
  • Compile final inspection sign-off sheets and complete inspection packages.
  • Verify that inspection equipment is capable of detecting defects and ensure that inspection methodologies align with drawing requirements and intent.
  • Review and validate any justification for parts that have not undergone final inspection.
  • Conduct audits to ensure adherence to the inspection plan, if applicable.
  • Ensure products are free of gaps, mismatches, and other defects, and meet acceptable contour, waviness, and workmanship standards (e.g., free from oil canning, scratches, dings, and burrs).
  • Inspect visible finishes, paint, and skin quality to ensure compliance with visual standards.
  • Verify that hardware, such as fasteners, are installed correctly and safety wire is applied properly according to specification requirements.
  • Verify that all parts are free from internal or external foreign object debris (FOD).
  • Verify that First Article Inspection (FAI) requirements are complete according to the engineering configuration and Production Documentation (PD).
  • Review the FAI Report (FAIR) for completeness, traceability, and compliance, and evaluate any open issues affecting the product being inspected.
  • Verify that all shipping documents are legible and contain the correct information (part number, serial number, configuration, and destination).
