What does the day look like?
About 40% of your shift is spent measuring raw materials, components, and finished goods against technical blueprints and tolerance limits using digital calipers, micrometers, dial indicators, coordinate measuring machines (CMM), optical comparators, and microscopes. Around 30% goes into physical testing (such as tensile, leak, moisture, or pH tests), logging defects, tagging quarantine stock, and stopping the production line if defect thresholds are breached.
Another 20% of your time is spent entering batch records, certificates of analysis, and measurements into SAP ERP or digital Statistical Process Control (SPC) tools, while the remaining 10% involves calibrating gauges and verifying GMP sanitisation compliance. You work on factory floors or in cleanrooms on rotating 8-hour or 12-hour shifts covering morning, afternoon, and night cycles. Overtime is common during peak production batches.
