Quality Assurance Analyst  

QA analysts look at products, systems and materials to make sure there are no defects, and make sure that it is made to company standards. QA analysts work in many different fields, from the food industry to transportation, ensuring quality products leave the manufacturer on the way to consumers. They read blueprints and use specialized inspection equipment such as gauges, calipers, voltmeters and others to measure the standards of quality needed to deliver safe goods.

When substandard items are detected, QA analysts will reject those pieces and make notes to make sure it does not happen again. Some may recommend procedure changes or line changes to ensure that quality is kept up.
