Senior Quality Engineer – Farm & Industrial Machinery

Company: Sickle Innovations Pvt.Ltd

At Sickle Innovations, we build practical, scalable farm machinery that solves real problems in Indian agriculture. Our focus is simple: reduce labor dependency, improve efficiency, and make mechanization accessible.

We’re looking for a Senior Quality Engineer who can build and own the entire quality function—from incoming inspection to field performance.

What You’ll Do
Own end-to-end quality systems across product lifecycle
Set up and manage incoming, in-process, and final inspection systems
Develop quality standards, SOPs, and checklists for production
Work closely with design and production teams to ensure DFM & DFA compliance
Lead root cause analysis (RCA) and implement corrective/preventive actions
Drive vendor quality management and audits
Monitor and improve field failure rates and product reliability
Build and lead a small quality team (inspectors, QA engineers)

What Actually Matters
Proven experience in quality engineering for machinery/products (not just documentation)




Solid understanding of fabrication, machining, assemblies, and tolerances
Experience handling vendor quality and shop-floor quality issues
Ability to solve real problems fast, not escalate endlessly
Comfortable working in a hands-on, fast-moving environment
Ability to balance quality vs cost vs speed (this is critical)

Good to Have
Experience in Agri machinery / food processing equipment
Familiarity with ISO systems, QC tools (7QC, FMEA, SPC)
Exposure to sheet metal, welding, plastics, and assemblies
Experience with field failure analysis and reliability improvement

Why This Role
Direct ownership of quality of machines used by farmers
Opportunity to build the quality function from ground up
Work on real-world engineering problems, not just audits and reports
High visibility role with direct impact on product success
