Quality Control Manager — Womenswear Location: Kolkata (on-site, with regular vendor unit visits) Type: Full-time Experience: 5–10 years in womenswear QC
About us 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.
The role 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. You will be the person who decides whether a lot ships or goes back.
In-line and final inspection
Set the inspection plan for every style: what gets checked, at what stage, at what sampling level (AQL)
Run in-line checks at vendor units — catch defects at 200 pieces, not at 2,000
Final random inspection before dispatch; Fabric inspection at in-warding: Lead and train the QC team — daily allocation,
defect standards, calibration so two checkers grade the same garment the same way
Make sure the team measures correctly — most bad QC is bad measuring
Marketplace quality and fit-related return rate
Zero quality-related marketplace penalties or listing blocks
5–10 years in garment QC, with real womenswear depth (knits and wovens both)
~ You can measure a garment properly, cold, without being told which points to take
~ Worked with an external vendor / CMT network, not only a captive factory
Exposure to washing, dyeing, printing and embroidery defects
Diploma or degree in apparel / fashion technology (NIFT, ATDC, or equivalent) — helpful, not mandatory if the hands-on experience is there
Direct ownership of quality across the entire brand, reporting straight to the founder
