The Quality Assurance organization provides a variety of services aimed at helping its internal customers, S&C leaders and team members, deliver superior quality to our customers. Quality planning, inspection, audit, quality information, quality improvement consulting, and quality communications are examples of the kind of services that the organization provides.

In this job you will be responsible for inspecting S&C product such as; electrical components, programming circuit boards, verifying the operations of micro AT's and other controls, dielectric testing of components and testing high voltage electrical equipment that are used in the switch gear systems and the smart grid protection products. This will include using test simulators, design special product testing, electronic & electrical equipment, electronic measurement instrumentation, torque measuring tools, reading electrical & electronic schematic diagrams, using inspection checklist (ISP's, PSP's and detailed standard work), entering & retrieving data in the oracle system, saving electrical documentation in the Source One system, accessing any special mechanical & electrical drawings, troubleshoot to component level, high level electronic board programming and able to close out any product job orders and specials.

The job responsibilities are to perform high level mechanical & electrical inspections to subassemblies and final assemblies in any product line. The requirements are for the inspector to work with assembly operations, engineers, customers and leaders with detailed process documentation, industry standards, specifications, instruction bulletins, a thorough review of mechanical and electrical schematic diagrams and complete checklist. Update standard work procedures and notate changes of ISP's and checklist with engineering and leaders. The inspector will also operate mechanical & electrical sub-assemblies and final assemblies by using several types of inspection equipment and selecting the proper measuring equipment such as torque wrenches, digital multi-meters, hi-pot testers, high voltage (HV) dielectric testing, partial discharge (PD) testing, install & upgrade SEL relay logic, programming several types of boards, and operate AC/DC motor testing.

In order to perform this specific inspection job, the inspector must have excellent verbal & writing communications skills such as; communicating and recording abnormal conditions on checklist, defects per unit (DPU) reports and document non-conforming material (NMR) returns and contact the supplier quality engineer (SQE) in order to test and resolve all non-conforming parts. All abnormal conditions must be communicated to assembly team members and production & inspection leaders. At times the inspector may need to communicate all abnormal conditions to designers and engineers in order to evaluate if the S&C product meets customer satisfaction or requires rework.

The responsibilities of this position include, but are not limited to, the following:

Job Responsibilities
* Record all defects on the checklist, DPU reports, non-conforming materials reports and
document & sort with the SQE's all bad parts.
