Quality Control Technician | Mooresville, North Carolina | $22-25/hr | Monday-Thursday Schedule
Overview
Mural is partnering with a global specialty chemical and polymer materials manufacturer to find a Quality Control Technician for their Mooresville, North Carolina facility. Our client produces polymer colorants and specialty additive materials used in automotive parts, packaging, appliances, and consumer products. This is a contract opportunity with a genuinely attractive schedule -- four days a week, Fridays off.
The Schedule
Monday through Thursday, 5:30 AM to 4:00 PM. That is it. Fridays are yours as part of your regular schedule, with only occasional exceptions when production needs it. If you want a four-day workweek in a stable manufacturing environment, this is a rare find.
What you will be doing
You will be the quality resource for the production floor -- testing finished batches against customer specifications, evaluating incoming raw materials, and stepping in when production needs technical guidance on whether a batch is in spec or what adjustment it needs.
- Perform standard quality tests on production batches and incoming raw materials to verify they meet internal and customer specifications
- Evaluate color and material compliance against customer-defined standards -- color matching experience is a significant plus for this role
- Recommend and help develop adjustments to out-of-spec batches
- Maintain Certificates of Analysis from material suppliers
- Record all test results in SAP and maintain required quality documentation
- Verify that gauges and test equipment are properly calibrated and functioning
- Participate in complaint investigations and corrective action processes as needed
- Follow all safety, PPE, and housekeeping requirements throughout the shift
What we are looking for
Required:
- High school diploma or GED
- 3+ years of experience in manufacturing or industrial production
- At least 1 year of quality control or lab testing experience
- Color matching or colorant experience is a meaningful differentiator for this role
- SAP experience for recording quality data
- Active forklift license
- Familiarity with standard lab testing procedures and documentation
Preferred:
- Direct experience in a colorant, coatings, plastics, or specialty chemical environment
- Experience managing Certificates of Analysis from suppliers
- Background in corrective action or complaint investigation processes
- Experience verifying and calibrating test equipment

$22.00 to $25.00 per hour based on experience. Contract position, 60-90 days with duration to be determined based on production needs. Located at 337 Timber Rd, Mooresville, NC 28115 -- in the Charlotte metro area, approximately 30 miles north of Charlotte.
