Quality Manager
Isembard
AI-driven distributed metal-component manufacturing
Isembard is rebuilding industrial capacity through a connected network of factories. We bring skilled people, advanced machine tools and our own software, MasonOS, together to make precision components for aerospace, defense, energy and robotics.
Our Dallas factory ships precision components into aerospace, defense and energy programs. The Quality Manager leads quality at the site: inspection, nonconformance and corrective action, and the systems that make sure every feature that matters is verified, documented and dispositioned without inspection becoming the bottleneck.
You will build and lead a growing site team of inspectors and CMM programmers, and work with Isembard's network quality leadership. Benefits include medical, dental and vision insurance, a 401(k) with company match, paid time off and parental leave, a Wellhub gym and wellness membership, and a stocked kitchen at the factory.
Lead day-to-day quality at the site, including inspection and the decision on whether parts ship.
Hire, coach and lead the Dallas quality team as it grows.
Keep inspection moving with production: plan capacity, set priorities and remove bottlenecks.
Run nonconformance, root cause and corrective action, and work with machining and engineering to fix causes at the source.
Maintain quality procedures and records to AS9100 standards, and support customer and certification audits.
Experience leading quality in a precision machining or regulated manufacturing environment.
Working knowledge of AS9100 or ISO 9001.
Strong drawing and GD&T interpretation, and a practical command of inspection methods, including CMM and first article inspection (AS9102).
Hands-on root cause analysis and corrective action.
Experience building and coaching a team.
Useful, not essential: aerospace or defense manufacturing, building a quality function at a new or fast-growing site, SPC, measurement system analysis and capability studies, or ASQ certification such as CQE or CMQ/OE.
Isembard is an equal opportunity employer.
Isembard is a London-based software-first manufacturing network that runs AI-powered factories to produce high-precision metal parts for aerospace, defence, energy, and robotics. It uses modular factory builds and a franchise model with MasonOS—the AI-native operating layer that handles quoting, CAD/CAM, procurement, scheduling, quality assurance and logistics across 5-axis CNC and robotic cells. Factories hold ISO 9001, Cyber Essentials and JOSCAR certifications. The company has raised a $9M seed and a $50M Series A to grow to about 25 facilities by late 2026 in the UK, US, Germany, France and Ukraine, serving both defence/autonomy startups and established OEMs, and sometimes managing complete supply chains for customers.
