Quality Technician - 1st Shift

Holden, MA | $26.00 - $28.00/hr | Contract to Hire

Mural Group is partnering with a global specialty chemical and materials manufacturer to hire a Quality Technician for their Holden, Massachusetts facility. This is a 1st shift, Monday through Friday role open to candidates with hands-on lab testing and color matching experience. If you have been doing quality or lab work on a rotating schedule and want straight days at better pay, this is worth a conversation.

The Schedule

Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 4:00 PM. No evenings. No weekends.

• 1 year of color matching experience - spectrophotometer or colorimeter operation, evaluating color against a master standard, and making or recommending adjustments

• 1 year of quality or lab testing experience in a manufacturing environment

• 1 year of production experience to understand the floor context your testing supports

• Experience recording quality data in SAP or a comparable ERP or LIMS system

• Ability to lift up to 50 pounds occasionally and work in an industrial environment with required PPE
