BRT Extrusions is looking for a dependable, detail-oriented Quality Inspector to join our growing Quality Department in Niles, Ohio!
At BRT, quality is more than just checking products - it's about making sure our customers receive materials that meet their exact specifications. As a Quality Inspector, you'll play an important role in maintaining product standards, identifying potential issues, and helping our manufacturing teams deliver quality aluminum extrusion products.
This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys hands-on work, has a good eye for detail, and wants to develop valuable technical skills in a manufacturing environment. No need to know everything on day one! We provide hands-on training, opportunities to cross-train, and the chance to advance your skills and grow within the company.
What You'll Do
As a Quality Inspector, you'll work closely with production teams and department leadership to ensure materials and processes meet customer and company quality standards.
Your responsibilities will include:
• Inspect aluminum extrusion materials using measurement tools to verify products meet customer specifications and quality requirements.
• Identify, document, and communicate nonconforming materials and assist with placing materials on quality hold when necessary.
• Collect and organize company and customer samples from extrusion presses for inspection.
• Perform inspections on in-process materials, returned materials, and outside-processed (OSP) materials.
• Verify product dimensions and specifications using tools such as calipers, squares, tape measures, Websters, and impressors.
• Review die prints, saw stacking specifications, packing specifications, and measurement tolerances.
• Conduct routine inspections of measuring tools throughout the plant and report or isolate defective equipment.
• Assist with quality investigations, corrective actions, and root cause analysis.
• Perform random quality audits and inspections throughout the facility.
• Work with department managers, supervisors, and production employees to communicate quality requirements and resolve concerns.
• Participate in ISO 9001 internal audits and support external audits.
• Review inspection records, work instructions, and department procedures to ensure accuracy and compliance.
• Help maintain accurate inspection documentation and support the transition to digital quality records.
• Assist with quality-related training and maintain required training documentation.
• Promote quality awareness and encourage employees to follow established procedures and customer requirements.
What We're Looking For
• Must be at least 18 years of age.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to identify inconsistencies or quality concerns.
• Basic math skills and the ability to read and understand measurements.
• Basic computer skills and the ability to maintain accurate records.
• Ability to read and understand basic written instructions in English.
• Effective verbal and written communication skills.
• Ability to learn how to use measurement tools and inspection equipment.
• Ability to follow established procedures, safety requirements, and quality standards.
• Dependable attendance and commitment to working scheduled shifts.
• Willingness to work weekends as needed.
• Willingness to participate in required safety, technical, and job-specific training.
Previous manufacturing or quality inspection experience is a plus, but we are willing to train the right candidate!
Why Work at BRT Extrusions?
We believe in developing our employees and providing opportunities to grow. Many of our current positions are filled through internal promotions, and we encourage employees to expand their skills through hands-on training and cross-training opportunities.
Here's What We Offer:
• Competitive hourly pay starting at $16.50, plus a $1.65 midnight shift premium.
