What I'm looking for
I’m a Textile Quality Engineer with 2+ years of hands-on experience across garments, home textiles, and technical textiles. I drive measurable improvements by combining AQL/SQL-based QC inspection, buyer communication, and cross-functional project coordination to resolve non-conformances quickly and keep deliveries on track.
At Pinnacle Home Textiles, I reduced production defects by 20% and cut scrap/non-conformity rates by over 70% through root cause analysis, corrective action programs, and TQM-driven process improvements. I also manage certification workflows (Oeko-Tex and GRS), set and monitor KPIs across teams, and ensure zero-defect dispatch through inline, shade-band, and final sample inspections.
