Quality Assurance Engineer

The Quality Assurance Engineer is responsible for the maintenance of the organization’s Quality Management System (QMS) and related tasks to assure Quality in everything we do.
When taking on these responsibilities, it is important to consider BEGA’s service purpose, which is to create meaningful and lasting connections. Our service purpose emphasizes how the organization should view and conduct itself and it expresses our desired impact on the lives of whoever we are trying to service. More simply put, it is the systematic reason behind how we make people feel. Everyone will always be celebrated for being “on purpose,” even if they temporarily find themselves “off task.”
BEGA offers aspiring professionals the opportunity to interact with our Operations team and beyond. Quality works closely with our production, engineering, planning, logistics, and warehouse teams to evaluate products, evaluate suppliers, assess processes, and provide opportunities for improvements.
