Job description

As a Quality Technician at NTS Hengelo - Additive Manufacturing, you are the quality guardian on the production floor.

• Restarting and programming CMM measuring machines, preferably with PC-DMIS or Quindos;

• Interpreting complex technical drawings and assessing for accuracy, tolerances, and GPS standards;

• Advising on the manufacturability of products, especially during NPI projects in collaboration with engineering;

• Identifying deviations in the process, analyzing the cause, and proposing structural improvements;

• Coaching colleagues on the shop floor in adhering to quality standards and 5S principles;

• Accurately recording measurement results in the designated systems to ensure traceability.

In this challenge, we offer the following benefits:

• A salary of € to € gross per month, depending on experience and qualifications;
