Quality Inspector - 2nd Shift

Modine Manufacturing Company is hiring a full-time Quality Inspector for the 2nd shift in Calgary, onsite. The role centers on making sure every product meets engineering and quality standards before it ships, with tasks that include inspecting materials, interpreting plans, and supporting ongoing improvements on the production line. Modine is a global leader in thermal management with more than 13,000 employees, headquartered in Racine, Wisconsin, and operating across North America, South America, Europe and Asia.

The successful candidate will bring a practical approach to quality, a keen eye for detail, and the ability to work closely with the production team to uphold and improve process standards on the shop floor.

A day on the 2nd shift

On the shop floor, the inspector assesses incoming materials to confirm they meet requirements and studies plans, schedules, blueprints, and specifications to understand product design and tolerance expectations. They help ensure procedures are set to achieve quality standards and consistently apply them in daily work. Before products leave the facility, they perform final inspections, document non-conformances, and compile reports that track quality performance and compliance.

Documentation is a core part of the role; inspection findings are recorded and performance records are maintained. The position also involves sharing knowledge with the production team about quality-control processes and the standards that define product quality, helping everyone stay aligned on quality goals.
