Quality Controllers are responsible for checking all the parts coming off production lines to make sure they meet customers' exact specifications. Quality Controllers don't just prevent faulty or defective parts from leaving the factory, though. They also help identify and solve the problems that caused the defects in the first place.
"We can't send parts to customers that are defective. We are the department that gives the go-ahead. If there's no quality, there’s no backbone."
