Full Job Description

What you'll do

Giga Energy builds mission-critical power infrastructure for AI datacenters — switchboards, panelboards, unit substations, and modular data centers delivered to hyperscaler customers across North America. As a Quality Technician, you will be embedded on the manufacturing floor at our Long Beach, CA location, executing the day-to-day inspection and documentation work that keeps our product quality high and our shipments to and from California on spec.

This is a hands-on role. You will follow established inspection plans, perform incoming and outgoing quality inspections, document findings accurately, and flag issues in real time. You will be working closely with the Quality Engineer and directly with production operators on the floor. We want someone who takes ownership, pays attention to the details that matter, and is eager to learn and grow within a quality organization that is being built from the ground up.

Where you'll work

This position is based in our Long Beach, CA location.

ResponsibilitiesIncoming Quality Control (IQC)

Inspect incoming raw materials and components against drawings, specifications, and acceptance criteria
Execute AQL-based sampling plans; make accept/reject decisions on incoming lots
Record inspection results accurately in the quality system — dimensions, visual observations, lot details
Place non-conforming materials on hold, tag and quarantine per procedure, and notify the Quality Manager
Verify material certifications, certificates of conformance, and test reports match the purchase order

In-Process Quality Control (IPQC)

Perform in-process inspections at defined checkpoints per the quality control plan
Monitor critical operations — fabrication, welding, surface treatment, assembly — and record findings in real time
Identify non-conformances during production and communicate them to the line supervisor and Quality Manager immediately
Support operators in understanding quality requirements and following visual work instructions

Outgoing Quality Control (OQC)

Perform final inspection of finished assemblies before shipment to California using defined checklists
Verify dimensional, visual, and functional checks are complete and within acceptance criteria
Confirm all required documentation is complete and accurate before release — CoC, test records, packing list
Apply release labels or hold tags as appropriate; never release a unit without Quality Manager sign-off on open issues

First Article Inspection (FAI) Support

Assist the Quality Manager in executing FAIs on new or revised fabricated parts
Balloon drawings, record measurements, and compile FAI data packages under direct supervision
Operate measuring instruments — calipers, micrometers, gauges — accurately and consistently

Documentation & Data

Maintain clear, complete, and accurate inspection records for every lot, batch, and unit inspected
Log non-conformances, defect types, quantities, and disposition in the quality tracking system
File and organize quality records so they are traceable and retrievable at any time
Contribute to weekly defect summaries and quality data reports prepared by the Quality Manager

Continuous Improvement & Learning

Participate in root cause investigations — describe what you observed, when, and where with precision
Follow corrective actions and verify effectiveness at your inspection station
Proactively flag patterns you notice — recurring defects, process variations, recurring supplier issues
Actively pursue learning: ask questions, study product drawings, and develop your quality knowledge over time

Requirements

1–3 years of experience in a manufacturing quality, inspection, or production role
Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and dimensional tolerances
Hands-on experience using basic measuring instruments: calipers, micrometers, gauges, tape measures
Strong attention to detail — you notice things others miss and you document exactly what you see
Disciplined about paperwork and data entry — accurate records are non-negotiable in this role
Comfortable working on a factory floor, standing for extended periods, and working alongside production operators
Fluent in English for quality reports and communication with leadership
Honest and direct — willing to flag a problem even when it creates friction with production

Bonus points

Bachelors in Engineering
Experience in electrical, metal fabrication, bus bars or panel assembly manufacturing
Exposure to FAI processes, control plans, or quality management systems
Basic understanding of GD&T (geometric dimensioning and tolerancing)
Experience using measurement tools: digital calipers, height gauge, radial gauge etc.

Benefits

Subsidized health, dental, and vision insurance
Equity (options) in a rapidly growing startup
401(k) with 4% employer match
Unlimited PTO
Parental leave
Healthcare and Dependent Care Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or Health Savings Account (HSA)
Commuter benefits
Team on-sites where all offices come in–person to collaborate

Pay: $20.00 - $35.00 per hour

Benefits:

401(k)
Dental insurance
Health insurance
Paid time off

Work Location: In person
