Build quality into the future of autonomous systems.

SYOS designs and manufactures advanced uncrewed systems across air, land, sea and subsurface. We combine intelligent engineering, AI-driven autonomy and innovative design to create next-generation vehicles operating in some of the world's most challenging environments.

Our mission is to extend human capability, protect people and deliver operational advantage through accessible, scalable and intelligent autonomous technology.

About the role

As a Quality Inspector, you'll play a hands-on role across the site's key quality gates — goods receipt, in-process production and final inspection. You'll work closely with the Quality Manager and wider production team to ensure components, assemblies and finished products meet the required quality standards. As you build competence, you'll become authorised across different inspection areas, giving you the opportunity to develop a broad understanding of the production process.

During the early production ramp, you'll carry out in-process inspections directly before helping transfer routine checks to trained operators. Over time, your focus will develop towards independent verification of critical characteristics, auditing operator inspections and final inspection.

What you'll be doing:

• Carry out inspections across goods receipt, in-process production and final inspection, following inspection and Control Plans and accurately recording measured results.
• Perform receiving inspections, including reviewing certificates, material documentation, part approval status, batch/lot information, shelf life, packaging and dimensional requirements.
• Conduct in-process checks covering areas such as harness workmanship, torque and sealing, composite inspection and assembly completeness.
• Independently verify critical and safety-critical characteristics and special process steps that require quality sign-off.
• Support the transition of routine inspections to trained operators by coaching, verifying and auditing operator inspection activities.
• Complete final inspection activities including configuration, traceability, identification, build records, packaging and labelling, supporting First Article Inspection where required.
• Identify and control non-conforming product by raising nonconformances, quarantining product and supporting containment and investigation activities.
