  • Quality inspection experience in a composite manufacturing environment (Motorsport/F1, Aerospace, or Automotive).
  • Strong understanding of carbon fibre/epoxy behaviours and a sharp eye for both structural and cosmetic defects.
  • Ability to read engineering drawings, Ply Layup Books, and GD&T symbols.
  • Proficient with standard mechanical inspection equipment and portable metrology systems (e.g., FARO/Romer arms or laser scanners).
  • Familiarity working under ISO 9001, AS9100, or IATF 16949 management systems.
  • A methodical approach to safety-critical tolerances, with the communication skills to work with laminators and engineers to resolve defects.
