Precision Steel Services — Toledo, OH
Precision Steel Services has supplied steel across the Midwest since 1974. We are looking for a Quality Control Specialist to help protect product quality, maintain documentation accuracy, and keep material moving through our operation.
Quality Control is the final checkpoint before our work reaches the customer.
As a Quality Control Specialist, you inspect incoming, in-process, outsourced, and finished material to confirm it meets company standards, customer requirements, and job specifications. You make decisions based on measurements, documentation, and facts — not assumptions.
This role carries responsibility. Every department feeds Quality Control, and every job must be cleared before it reaches the customer. You are responsible for protecting the customer from defects while helping production continue to flow.
This is not an office-only quality role. This is hands-on manufacturing quality control in an active shop environment.
What You’ll Do
Perform visual inspections to identify defects, damage, irregularities, and workmanship issues
Perform dimensional inspections to verify size, tolerance, and accuracy throughout processing
Inspect incoming material before processing begins
Inspect in-process material as it moves through production
Complete final inspections before material is released for shipment
Verify outsourced material meets requirements before returning to production flow
Inspect packaging, labeling, and order condition before customer shipment
Use measuring tools such as calipers, micrometers, tape measures, and other inspection equipment
Read and follow work orders, job documentation, inspection requirements, and customer specifications
Maintain accurate inspection records, logs, and traceability documentation
Verify work orders are correctly documented and routed to the next operation
Identify, document, and report non-conforming material immediately
Communicate with production, shipping, and leadership to resolve quality issues
Help keep material moving without sacrificing inspection accuracy
What We Expect
You pay attention to details that others miss
You make decisions based on facts, measurements, and documentation
You move with urgency while maintaining accuracy
You do not pass material that fails to meet specification
You communicate quality issues early before they become customer problems
You take ownership of your decisions and back them up with documentation
You understand that quality and throughput both matter
You do not skip steps, fudge tolerances, or look the other way
You can stand behind your call when material is good, bad, or questionable
You show up reliably and understand that attendance matters
What Winning Looks Like
Nothing leaves the building out of specification
Quality issues are caught internally before the customer ever sees them
Documentation is accurate, complete, and reflects reality
Material is inspected and routed correctly
Production and shipping are not waiting on Quality Control unnecessarily
Questionable parts are flagged quickly and resolved correctly
The team moves fast without getting sloppy
The operation runs better because Quality Control protects both quality and throughput
