QUALITY TECHNICIAN (SHIFT ROLE)
Headquartered in East Kilbride and with an R+D centre in Hamilton, Grw Talent’s client is building out a high-volume electronic probe test card production and assembly business in East Kilbride. Already employing over 100 heads they continue to grow in Scotland, USA and Asia. The business is celebrated for an open, fair, empowered and highly engaged culture where people matter and rewards are shared across the company. They now need to make the key hire of a Quality Technician.
This role will alternate weekly between day shift Monday-Friday and back shift (2pm-10pm) Monday to Thursday and 8am-4pm on a Friday. Any weekend or additional work outside of your standard hours carries a good overtime rate on top of the base salary and shift allowance.
Reporting into senior Production Leaders, the Quality Technician is responsible for conducting inspections, analysing defects, and ensuring the quality of probe card assemblies and components during the evening shift. This role focuses on maintaining compliance with IPC-A-600 (Acceptability of Printed Circuit Boards) and IPC-A-610 (Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies) standards while supporting production operations. The Quality Technician will collaborate with production teams, identify and document defects, and assist in implementing corrective actions to maintain high-quality standards and production efficiency. Key responsibilities include:
* Conduct Incoming, In-Process, and Final Inspections: Perform quality inspections on probe card components and assemblies during the backshift, ensuring compliance with IPC and customer standards.
* Visual and Microscopic Inspections: Use magnification tools, microscopes, and automated optical inspection (AOI) equipment to detect soldering defects, misalignment, and PCB irregularities.
* Defect Identification & Classification: Identify non-conformities, classify defects based on IPC standards, and escalate issues for corrective action.
* Verify Rework & Repairs: Inspect reworked probe cards and assemblies to ensure compliance with IPC and internal quality standards before release to production.
* Work with Backshift Production Teams: Collaborate with operators and supervisors to address quality concerns in real time.
* Assist in Root Cause Analysis: Support failure investigations by documenting quality trends and participating in corrective/preventive action initiatives.
* Continuous Improvement Initiatives: Identify recurring quality issues and propose improvements to enhance efficiency and reduce defects.
The successful candidate will have proven experience in quality inspection within electronics manufacturing, PCB assembly, PCB soldering or semiconductor-related industries. An understanding or working knowledge of electronic assembly standards IPC 600 / IPC 610 would be a distinct advantage. You will have proficiency in using microscopes, callipers, micrometres, AOI, and other precision measurement equipment. Full training and accreditation to IPC standards will be given.
This represents a superb opportunity for an aspiring Quality, Inspection or Manufacturing Technician to join a real Scottish success story with a superb culture. Alongside your base salary and shift allowance all employees will get access to company performance bonuses, share options, 31 days leave and a solid company pension.
