At Matterport, you will be supported by seasoned engineers, with ample opportunities for close mentorship, continuous learning, and upskilling.

This position is located in Sunnyvale, CA and is in office Monday through Thursday and work from home on Friday.

• Root Cause & Corrective Action: Drive and own 8D investigations to resolve quality issues, utilizing root cause analysis methodologies.

• Hands-on Quality Assurance: Perform physical inspections of parts and assemblies to ensure compliance with engineering specifications.

• Process Improvement: Review, refine, and enforce Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the manufacturing line.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Act as the primary quality liaison, interfacing directly with suppliers, CMs, Manufacturing Engineers, Design Engineers, and Production Line Engineers to ensure quality standards are met from R&D through mass production.

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s Degree required from an accredited, not for profit, in person university or college.  

• A track record of commitment to prior employers 

• 3+ years of experience in Quality Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field.

• Proficiency in querying data using SQL.

• Experience building data dashboards (Looker, PowerBI, ReDash, or similar).

• Strong working knowledge of statistical analysis tools (Minitab, JMP) and techniques (SPC, Cpk).

• Strong working knowledge of QMS standards such as ISO 9001, aerospace standards (AS9100), or automotive standards (IATF 16949), including hands-on experience with APQP and PPAP frameworks.

• Proven experience driving 8D investigations and leading cross-functional teams to effective corrective actions.

• Hands-on experience inspecting mechanical/electrical parts and assemblies, as well as reviewing and writing SOPs.

• Strong presentation skills with the ability to translate raw data into actionable manufacturing strategies.

Preferred Qualifications and Skills

• Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt certification.

• Familiarity with PLM systems (e.g., Arena, Agile).

• Experience with FMEA and Control Plans.
