What to Expect: Conduct comprehensive inspection operations on composite parts to ensure they meet McLaren's exacting quality standards. Inspect and validate composite repair operations, ensuring all repairs are completed to specification. Work closely with the Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to control product routing and ensure efficient material flow through production operations. Support production teams in maintaining quality standards and resolving issues on shift.

Responsibilities: Perform detailed visual and in some cases dimensional inspections on composite components across shifts. Inspect composite repair operations and validate repair quality against established procedures and standards. Utilise MES to track, route and control parts throughout the production process, ensuring accurate status updates and efficient workflow. Identify, document and disposition non-conformances within the MCTC Manufacturing Execution System. Conduct line-side inspections to support real-time quality decision making and prevent defects from progressing. Manage hold/quarantine status of products and work with production teams to ensure controlled material flow. Participate in practical problem-solving (PPS) activities with engineering and production teams for quality concern resolution. Maintain accurate inspection records and quality documentation within MES. Support new product introduction activities through inspection validation and process capability assessment. Collaborate with production planners to optimise product routing and minimise bottlenecks. Monitor and report on quality trends to support continuous improvement initiatives.
