About the role

Johnson & Johnson Irvine seeks a Staff Quality Engineer to lead QA activities across the product lifecycle, supporting NPD and design verification. You will apply Six Sigma, SPC and DOE tools, drive risk management, and ensure compliance with MDR and company policies. You will mentor engineers, coordinate cross-functional teams, and develop robust QC plans, test protocols, and validation reports to ensure high-quality medical products.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
