Job Description

Job title: Quality Control Manager — Womenswear Location: Kolkata (in office, with regular vendor unit visits) Type: Full-time Experience: 5–10 years in womenswear QC

/n

About us /n

Uptownie is a womenswear brand. We design and produce in-house and through a vendor network, and we sell across Myntra, Ajio, Nykaa, Amazon, Flipkart and our own website. Our volumes are real and our quality standard is what decides whether a customer keeps the garment or returns it.

/n

The role /n

We are looking for a QC Manager who can hold the quality line end to end — from fabric in-warding to the final packed carton. Not a checker. Someone who owns the standard, builds the system, and runs the team that enforces it.

/n

You will be the person who decides whether a lot ships or goes back.

/n

What you'll do /n

Measurement & fit

/n

/n
- Read tech packs, patterns and grade rules, and verify that what the vendor sewed matches what we specified
/n
- Own our measurement charts and points-of-measure across all categories — tops, dresses, bottoms, co-ords
/n




- Check grading across the size set, not just the base size. Catch grade breaks before they become returns
/n
- Sign off on fit samples, PP samples and size sets before bulk cutting starts
/n

/n

In-line and final inspection

/n

/n
- Set the inspection plan for every style: what gets checked, at what stage, at what sampling level (AQL)
/n
- Run in-line checks at vendor units — catch defects at 200 pieces, not at 2,000
/n
- Final random inspection before dispatch; pass / hold / reject decisions with documented reasoning
/n
- Fabric inspection at in-warding: 4-point system, GSM, width, shade continuity, shrinkage and colourfastness checks
/n

/n

Team

/n

/n
- Lead and train the QC team — daily allocation, defect standards, calibration so two checkers grade the same garment the same way
/n
- Build the defect library: what a major is, what a minor is, what is an automatic reject
/n
- Make sure the team measures
