About this role
Foxconn WI's Program Management Department is looking for an NPI Inspection Engineer to build the quality foundation for new products from prototype through full production ramp. You'll develop inspection plans, define acceptance criteria, select and validate measurement equipment, and ensure processes are capable and repeatable across first article, incoming, in-process, and final inspection stages. This role bridges engineering and manufacturing—you'll analyze defect trends with quality and engineering teams, investigate measurement discrepancies, and provide technical guidance on dimensional, visual, and workmanship issues as products move toward build readiness.
The position suits someone with a bachelor's degree in engineering, quality, manufacturing, or a related field (or equivalent hands-on experience) and at least two years in inspection, metrology, quality, or manufacturing engineering. You'll need to interpret drawings and tolerances, understand measurement systems and MSA, and think systematically through problem-solving. This is an in-office, full-time role at the SMC location where you'll work in both office and production environments.
Foxconn offers a standard benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage, life and disability insurance options, 401K matching, paid time off, and access to an onsite health and wellness center. The company emphasizes continuous learning and career growth within smart manufacturing.
