Quality Engineer – Automotive Manufacturing

Ready to work somewhere that actually listens when you have improvement ideas? At Crucial Link , we’re on the hunt for a Quality Engineer who’s all about solving problems, making things better, and keeping customers happy.

If you’re the kind of person who takes pride in seeing a process improve, a defect eliminated, or a customer rave about your work — you’ll fit right in.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Be the go-to for all things quality — from audits to problem-solving to keeping things running smooth.
• Lead and support continuous improvement using tools like PDCA , 8D , and 5-Why .
• Partner with suppliers, production, and customers to fix issues before they become headaches.
• Get hands-on with PPAPs , FMEAs , Control Plans , SPC , GD&T , and other automotive core tools.
• Jump into new product launches — making sure we’re preventing problems, not reacting to them.
• Track and improve KPIs, analyze data, and create solutions that make real impact.
• Support and lead ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 activities and audits.
• Work with teams across manufacturing, sales, and leadership — everyone has a seat at the table.

What You Bring

• 3+ years of experience in quality engineering (Automotive Manufacturing preferred).
• A Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• Solid understanding of ISO/IATF standards , automotive core tools , and problem-solving methods .
• Experience with GD&T , data analysis , and statistical tools .
• Strong communication skills — you’ll talk with everyone from shop floor to customers.
• Bonus points if you’ve worked with CAD , supplier development , or launch activities .

Travel & Extras

• Occasional travel (about 25%) to support suppliers and customers.
• Passport and driver’s license needed.
• Spanish or Japanese skills? Nice bonus, but not required.

This isn’t just a job — it’s a chance to make a difference in how products are made and how customers experience them.
