Full Job Description

About PepperBall

PepperBall is the leader in non-lethal protection solutions, trusted by law enforcement, corrections, security, and government agencies worldwide. Our launchers and projectiles give officers and agencies a safer way to de-escalate and resolve dangerous situations. When our products leave the factory, lives depend on them working exactly as designed — every projectile, every launcher, every time. Quality isn't a department here; it's the reason customers trust us.

Position Summary

We are seeking an experienced Manufacturing Quality Engineer to strengthen and standardize how we test, accept, and build our projectiles. This role owns the review and improvement of our production test procedures, replaces subjective accept/reject judgments with objective, measurable criteria, and leads operator training so every team member tests and inspects to the same standard. Beyond the test bench, this engineer will drive scrap reduction and workflow improvements across the production floor. This is a high-visibility, hands-on role for someone who wants to own outcomes, not just write reports.

Key Responsibilities

Test Procedure Ownership

Review, revise, and maintain all production test procedures for projectiles.
Identify gaps, redundancies, and outdated methods; drive procedures to current best practice
Validate test methods to ensure they reliably detect the defects that matter

Objective Acceptance Criteria

Eliminate subjectivity from accept/reject decisions by defining measurable, documented acceptance criteria
Conduct measurement systems analysis (gage R&R, attribute agreement analysis) to verify that inspections are repeatable and reproducible across operators and shifts
Develop visual standards, boundary samples, and inspection aids where visual criteria are unavoidable

Operator Training

Design, deliver, and maintain a structured training and certification program for production and test operators
Establish competency verification so operators are qualified before performing tests independently
Retrain and re-qualify operators when procedures change or performance data indicates a need

Scrap Reduction

Analyze scrap and rework data to identify top cost drivers
Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions (8D, 5-Why, fishbone) to eliminate recurring defects
Establish and report scrap metrics; set and drive reduction targets

Workflow & Process Improvement

Evaluate production floor workflow, material flow, and line balance; recommend and implement improvements
Apply lean manufacturing principles to reduce waste, handling, and cycle time
Partner with production supervisors to implement standard work

Qualifications Required

Bachelor's degree in Engineering (Industrial, Mechanical, Manufacturing, Quality, or related field)
3+ years of engineering experience in a manufacturing environment
Hands-on experience with measurement systems analysis, including gage R&R and/or attribute agreement analysis
Demonstrated success developing or improving test/inspection procedures and acceptance criteria
Working knowledge of statistical process control (SPC) and root cause analysis tools
Experience training and qualifying production personnel
Strong communication skills and the floor presence to earn buy-in from operators, supervisors, and leadership

Preferred

Six Sigma Green Belt or Black Belt certification
ASQ Certified Quality Engineer (CQE)
Experience in a regulated or safety-critical manufacturing environment (defense, aerospace, medical device, ammunition/energetics, or similar)
Familiarity with ISO 9001 quality management systems
Lean manufacturing training or certification
Experience with pneumatic devices, projectiles, or chemical formulation/filling processes

What Success Looks Like in Year One

All production test procedures reviewed, updated, and under document control
Accept/reject criteria objective and verified through measurement systems analysis, with inspection agreement across operators demonstrably improved
Operator training and certification program launched, with all current operators qualified
Measurable reduction in scrap rate against baseline
At least one significant workflow improvement implemented on the production floor

Equal Opportunity Employer: All applicants will be considered for employment without attention to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran or disability status. Any offer of employment is contingent upon successful completion of a physical / drug test.

Pay: $100,000.00 - $115,000.00 per year

Benefits:

401(k) matching

Vision insurance

Education:

Bachelor's (Required)

Experience:
