About the Role
Russell Tobin is supporting a leading global technology organization in hiring a Quality Engineer – Electronics Manufacturing to support new product introduction and manufacturing scale-up activities.
This role is fully onsite at a supplier manufacturing facility in Nashville and is focused on one core objective: maximize production throughput while maintaining product quality. You’ll work hands-on with factory teams to identify issues, debug failures, analyze data, and remove process bottlenecks so more product ships out the door.
Key Responsibilities

- Debug test and process failures alongside technicians and engineers.
- Optimize factory flow, material movement, and test/repair processes.
- Investigate incoming quality issues and drive root cause resolution.
- Analyze production and test data to identify trends and bottlenecks.
- Partner cross-functionally with internal and external engineering teams.
- Support continuous improvement and waste reduction initiatives.
Top Required Skillsets

- Experience identifying inefficiencies, tracking material, and eliminating waste.
- Ability to optimize how products move through manufacturing and test.
2. Electronics Manufacturing Experience

3. Data Analysis
- Proficiency in Excel required.
- Ability to analyze production/test timestamps, cycle times, and failure data.
- SQL or advanced analytics tools are a plus but not required.
Experience Requirements
- 3–5 years of experience in manufacturing engineering, process engineering, or quality engineering.
- Hands-on factory experience strongly preferred.
- Candidates who primarily work in office settings with limited factory exposure may require additional experience.
- Equivalent experience will be considered (degree not strictly required if experience is substantial).
Education
- Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Industrial, Electrical Engineering, or related field preferred (BSME / BSIE / BSEE).
- Relevant manufacturing experience may substitute for formal education.
Leadership & Performance Focus
- Bias for Action: The team’s priority is maximizing units shipped — speed, urgency, and problem-solving are critical.
- Success is measured by:
- Production throughput improvements
- Issue resolution speed
- Ability to remove blockers quickly
Typical Day in the Role
Schedule: Monday–Friday
Overtime: ~2-hour buffer as needed; no vacation work expected
Work Breakdown:
- 20% Meetings & cross-functional alignment
