Quality Technician

Alloyed is a young venture-funded company of around 150 world-class metallurgists, mechanical engineers, technicians, and software developers. Operating across two locations in the UK and one in the US, we are building the future of advanced metal components. Our innovative approach integrates proprietary software that combines advanced machine learning and physical modelling with extensive experimental facilities, enabling us to 3D print metal components more efficiently and effectively than anyone else.

Our facilities in Yarnton and Abingdon, near Oxford, are dedicated to establishing the world’s fastest, smartest, and best-equipped environment for the rapid development of additively manufactured parts and the creation of novel metal alloys for enhanced performance. We serve a variety of sectors including electronics, aerospace, and industrial by leveraging our cutting-edge technology to build businesses across diverse markets, each with unique requirements, timelines, customers, and cultures.

Alloyed is seeking a methodical and detail-oriented person with a keen eye for detail to join the Quality function. As a Quality Technician, you will play a crucial role in supporting operations through the resolution of nonconformances and implementation of corrective actions. You will support the Quality function to ensure adherence to AS9100 and ISO9001 standards throughout our manufacturing processes, whilst promoting a culture of quality excellence and continuous improvement. Your primary objective will be to guarantee the delivery of high-quality products that meet or exceed customer expectations while driving operational efficiency. This is not a quality inspector’s role focussed on metrology; rather, you will work closely with engineers and technicians, ensuring that all work is carried out according to processes and specifications.

This is an onsite role based at Abingdon Business Park, south of Oxford. Training will be provided where required.

  • Ownership of nonconformance process, supporting process owners to identify and implement corrective actions
  • Support the wider quality function to develop, implement, and maintain the company's AS9100 and ISO9001-compliant QMS
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to establish and revise operational and quality procedures
  • Implement statistical process control techniques to monitor process performance and drive continuous improvement
  • Provide training to employees on quality management principles and practices
  • Bachelor’s degree in engineering or similar scientific subject or 5+ years of experience in a production role
  • Solid analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to interpret and analyse measurement data effectively
  • Experience working in a precision engineering environment
  • Organised and able to work independently, but also collaborate with a diverse, fast-moving team
  • Proficient with Microsoft Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook)
  • Hands-on attitude and willingness to learn new skills
  • High level of attention to detail
  • Experience with metal additive manufacturing
