Quality Technician

RC Mowers | We're Hiring

Quality Technician

Full-Time · Suamico, WI (On-Site)

$23.00 to $27.00 per hour

Help make sure every machine we build is ready for the field.

At RC Mowers, we build commercial mowing equipment designed for tough jobs. We're looking for a Quality Technician who can help make sure our machines, parts, and components meet our standards before they reach customers.

This is hands-on work inspecting finished machines, checking incoming parts, and making sure outgoing shipments are right. You'll also work with suppliers and our internal teams to address quality issues.

If you can read a blueprint, use precision measuring tools, and aren't afraid to speak up when something isn't right, this could be your job.

THE JOB

You'll work in our Suamico factory, inspecting parts and machines throughout the manufacturing process.

You'll use drawings, inspection tools, and checklists to find problems, document what you see, and work with others to get them corrected. It's not just about catching defects. It's about explaining what's wrong and helping keep it from happening again.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

Inspect finished machines for quality, workmanship, and accuracy before shipment

Check incoming parts against blueprints, dimensions, and specifications

Use dial calipers, micrometers, and other inspection tools to verify measurements

Identify, document, and clearly communicate quality issues

Visit suppliers as needed to review quality concerns and verify corrective actions

Audit outgoing shipments for proper packaging and correct parts and quantities

Maintain inspection checklists and quality documents

Track inspection equipment and calibration records; keep the quality area organized

Work with Purchasing on nonconforming materials

Help identify recurring issues and support improvements

Work with Engineering to implement new processes and audit initial production runs

Preform small quality repairs to machines as found

WHAT THE WORK IS LIKE

Hands-on inspections in a manufacturing environment

A mix of shop-floor and computer work

Daily interaction with Production, Engineering, Purchasing, and Shipping

Occasional travel to supplier locations

A team that expects you to notice issues and speak up

WHO FITS HERE

You notice details others might miss and take pride in doing things right

You're comfortable raising concerns and explaining them professionally

You can back up your findings with measurements and clear documentation

You're organized, dependable, and able to follow an issue through

You work well with different teams and are willing to learn our machines

EXPERIENCE YOU NEED

Strong blueprint reading skills

Experience using dial calipers, micrometers, and other precision measuring equipment

Ability to inspect mechanical parts and document accurate findings

Proficiency with Microsoft Outlook, Excel, and Word, including professional email communication

Strong verbal communication skills and confidence discussing quality issues

Experience in quality inspection, manufacturing, machining, or a related technical environment

You don't need to know our machines before you start. We'll train you on RC Mowers equipment and processes, but you should already be comfortable reading blueprints, measuring parts, and communicating technical issues.

PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

This is a hands-on manufacturing job. You should be comfortable:

Standing and walking throughout the workday

Bending, reaching, and inspecting equipment from different positions

Handling parts, tools, and inspection equipment

Working safely around machinery and production equipment

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

$23.00 to $27.00 per hour, based on experience

Health, dental, and vision insurance

401(k) with company match

Paid vacation time

Paid holidays

Disability, life, and accident insurance
