Quality Technician Job Summary
Quality control begins with inspecting products, but this method does not affect quality. For continuous quality improvements, you must combine the finished product inspection with methods that reduce the factors that result in poor quality products. As our Quality Technician you are responsible for carrying out ROCKWOOL standard tests on our products and process parameters so that adequate control of the production process can be maintained to ensure quality of our finished products are within specifications. You serve as the frontline auditor of our products on the production line to confirm product quality before we deliver to our customers, also performing additional testing on any returned materials for root cause analysis and investigate customer complaints. Standards are important to the bottom line and leads to lower costs by reducing redundancy, minimize errors or complaints and reduce the time to market. Our Quality Technicians drive these standards by immediately communicating to key stakeholders to control production parameters that maintain our products within specifications.
