About This Role

This is a plant-floor quality role at a manufacturer, meaning the person in this seat owns how consistently products meet spec from raw material intake through finished output. Kite Manufacturing operates in the paper and manufacturing space, so the quality officer acts as the technical gatekeeper between production pressure and customer standards. It suits an engineer who is comfortable being the person who says "stop" when a batch is off, and who can back that call with data rather than opinion.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The engineering degree requirement is broad on purpose — chemical, industrial, mechanical, paper, or manufacturing backgrounds are all accepted, which signals the employer values applied process knowledge over a narrow specialization. Asking for formal quality assurance training on top of the degree suggests they want someone already socialized into QA systems and documentation discipline, not someone learning it on the job. Three years of direct experience tells you they expect familiarity with production environments where you have already seen how quality failures actually happen.

How to Approach This Application

Since applications are accepted in person at Gelan, treat the physical submission as a first impression — come organized, with copies ready and a clear cover letter that names the specific quality systems or standards you have worked with. Emphasize concrete examples: defect rates you reduced, audits you passed, or inspection processes you built. The employer is likely prioritizing reliability and documentation habits over academic pedigree, so show evidence of both.

Best Fit

Who This Role Suits

Best suited to an engineer with hands-on factory QA experience who wants a focused, single-site role with direct impact on production outcomes. Competition is likely moderate — the broad degree eligibility widens the pool, but the three-year direct experience filter narrows it considerably.
