Sobre esta vaga de Quality Engineer na Machina Labs

Machina Labs · Presencial · Chatsworth, CA

Engineering moves at software speed. Manufacturing doesn't. Yet. 

Machina Labs is changing that. We build intelligent, software-defined factories that produce complex metal structures directly from digital design. By integrating advanced metal forming, robotics, and automated production inside a flexible factory architecture, we enable customers to move from prototype to production in weeks, not years. 

Backed by Lockheed Martin, Toyota, and NVIDIA, we're building the manufacturing infrastructure that defense, aerospace, and advanced mobility programs will run on. 

If you want to work on hard problems that matter and see them fly, drive, and defend, this is the place.

          • Participate in Material Review Board (MRB) activities and support the disposition of nonconforming material. 
          • Conduct internal audits and assist with customer and supplier quality audits. 
          • Support supplier quality initiatives, including supplier evaluations and corrective actions. 
          • Utilize quality tools such as FMEA, SPC, MSA, PPAP, and 8D problem solving to improve manufacturing processes. 
          • Work closely with Production, Engineering, and Supply Chain to reduce defects, improve yields, and increase manufacturing efficiency.
