• Ensure consistent adherence to company quality standards, electrical safety norms, and regulatory compliance requirements on the shop floor
• Support and participate in 5S, Lean, and continuous improvement initiatives to enhance quality systems and operational efficiency

5. Coordination & Communication

• Coordinate with suppliers, the production team, and the testing department to address quality concerns, material non-conformances, and process deviations
• Support customer inspections and third-party quality inspections by providing relevant documentation, test records, and inspection assistance
• Communicate quality issues, trends, and improvement recommendations clearly to the Quality Head and management for informed decision-making

Skills Required:

• Strong analytical skills and sharp attention to detail, enabling accurate identification of product non-conformances and quality deviations across inspection stages
• Good communication and report-writing skills to document inspection findings clearly and coordinate effectively with production, design, and supplier teams
• Sound working knowledge of electrical drawings, wiring diagrams, and component specifications relevant to CT/PT transformer manufacturing
• Hands-on experience with electrical testing equipment and a thorough understanding of testing procedures and IS/IEC standards applicable to transformers
• Ability to maintain structured, audit-ready quality records and support documentation-driven quality management systems

Special Requirements:

• Good knowledge of electrical drawings, testing procedures, and IS/IEC standards applicable to transformers is mandatory — candidates without this technical background will not be considered
• Practical experience with electrical testing methods including Ratio, Polarity, IR, Magnetization, and Burden tests will be a critical selection criterion
• Prior experience in CT/PT transformer or electrical equipment manufacturing quality environments will be strongly preferred
• Must be comfortable working in a structured shop-floor quality role with defined inspection responsibilities and audit support requirements
• Willingness to work full-time from the Waluj MIDC, Chh. Sambhajinagar plant location is required
