Additionally, you will collect data, track metrics, defects, and test results, reporting your findings to your supervisor. Your role involves providing training on quality control product analyses, bottling quality assurance, and record-keeping procedures, ensuring our team is well-equipped to maintain high standards.

Supporting the company's calibration and preventative maintenance program, you will perform quality checks and evaluations, taking appropriate actions to ensure result accuracy. You will utilize profiling, quality tools, and various data sources to determine causes of quality issues, working collaboratively with operations/quality teams to correct issues and suggest improvement opportunities.

Practicing safe work habits and maintaining a clean and orderly work area and instrumentation is paramount. Your role requires satisfactory attendance and compliance with applicable quality, environmental, and safety regulations.
