Job Summary
The Metrology Quality Engineer will report to the Operations Quality Manager and will be responsible for the end-to-end quality control of manufacturing processes (IQC, IPQC, OQC), with a strong technical focus on analytical instrumentation (GC, GCMS moisture and oxygen analyzer) and TVOC monitoring. This role drives the deployment of quality engineering tools (FMEA, SPC) across the site, manages instrument health (calibration, MSA), oversees supplier quality for critical parts, and ensures strict adherence to compliance standards with the authority to intervene in non-conforming operations.
Key Responsibilities
Instrumentation & Measurement System Analysis (MSA)
- Analyzer Management: Manage and coordinate Process and analyzers (GC, GCMS moisture, and oxygen analyzer) across sites. Ensure data integrity through Quality Management System (QMS) standards.
- MSA Execution: Perform Measurement System Analysis, including calibration, Gage R&R (GR&R), and long-term stability studies. Troubleshoot and resolve any non-conforming events related to instrumentation.
- Maintenance & Assets: Manage Preventive Maintenance (PM), acceptance tests, and critical spare parts inventory for analyzers (Inline/Offline GCMS, GC, Moisture, and Oxygen analyzers).
Supplier Management & Resources
- Gas standards Management: Manage the inventory, certification, and usage of Standard Gases to ensure adherence to the calibration schedule.
- Vendor Relations: Conduct supplier spot check audits regarding analytical equipment and services to ensure external partners meet quality standards. Participate in Factory Acceptance Testing for new equipment.
Process Quality Control & Compliance
- End-to-End QC: Execute quality control for Incoming (IQC), In-Process (IPQC), and Outgoing (OQC) stages in collaboration with Facility and Operation Quality Managers, with a specific focus on TVOCs (Total Volatile Organic Compounds) monitoring.
- Stop-Work Authority: Monitor operations for compliance with approved quality and safety rules. Exercise the authority to stop any activity that poses a risk to customer quality or safety and immediately notify responsible managers to initiate corrective actions.
- Deviation Management: Support site investigations for quality issues on the analyzer. Drive product quality improvements through participation in root cause analysis and the implementation of Preventive and Corrective Actions (CAPA).
Quality Engineering & Continuous Improvement
- Tool Deployment: Drive the deployment of QC methods and quality tools on-site, including FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), RCA (Root Cause Analysis), SPC (Statistical Process Control), Plan-do-Check-Act (PDCA) methodology, and Control Charts to enhance process stability.
- Data Analysis: Utilize statistical methods to monitor process performance and identify trends for improvement.
- Continuous improvement: Maintain a culture of continuous improvement.
Education Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or equivalent experience.
Required Experience

- Proven experience in Quality Control (IQC/IPQC/OQC) within a chemical, industrial gas, or semiconductor environment.
- US Navy Engineering Laboratory Technicians are also acceptable.
- Previous experience in highly sensitive fields such as medical grade production, nuclear, or semiconductor production.
- Willingness to provide rotational on-call to support the facility.
Desired Skills
- Technical Expertise: Strong hands-on experience with Gas Chromatographs, Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, Moisture, and Oxygen analyzers. Familiarity with Total volatile organic compounds analyses and measurement tools is highly preferred.
- Troubleshooting: Must be able to develop and execute troubleshooting plans for complex industrial gas equipment.
- Quality Tools: Proficient in quality tools such as FMEA, SPC, MSA (GR&R), and Root Cause Analysis.
- Communication: Strong technical and interpersonal communication skills.
