• Support QA Inspectors and Production teams by maintaining a clean, organized, and inspection-ready work environment.
• Ensure all documentation meets ALCOA+ principles and is completed contemporaneously and accurately.
• Participate in internal audits, housekeeping walkthroughs, and process improvement initiatives related to cleaning verification.
• Perform other QA-related duties as assigned to support overall site compliance.
