Job Description:

Parsons is seeking a Factory QA Inspector to join our Owner’s Advisor team supporting the Medical Enlisted Training Campus (METC) Recapitalization Program at Joint Base San Antonio–Fort Sam Houston. This mission-critical initiative will deliver five modern dormitory facilities for up to 6,000 joint-service medical students and the associated infrastructure.

Working alongside government leaders, military stakeholders, designers, and contractors, you will help manage risk, protect the government’s interests, and support the successful delivery of a high-profile Progressive Design-Build program. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to a landmark campus, advance innovative delivery methods, and help shape the future of large-scale Air Force infrastructure programs.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Perform owner-side surveillance of off-site manufactured components and modules before shipment to METC.

• Assignments will be allocated to confirmed plants, production lines, shifts, and inspection demand.

• Review production QC records and inspect work against approved fabrication documents and inspection/test plans.

• Witness first articles, concealed-work inspections, dimensional checks, and discipline-specific tests within qualifications.

• Check structural connections, enclosure details, fire/smoke continuity, and MEP interfaces relevant to the assigned scope.

• Maintain module serial-number, material-lot, drawing-revision, inspection, and nonconformance traceability.

• Identify repetitive defects and support containment, root-cause review, corrective-action verification, and trend reporting.

• Verify shipment-readiness evidence, preservation and packaging; report release recommendations through agreed authority.

What Required Skills You'll Bring:

• High school diploma or equivalent and 5+ years of fabrication, modular construction, building inspection, or manufacturing QA/QC experience.

• Ability to interpret shop drawings, tolerances, material certificates, test records, and controlled manufacturing documentation.

• Ability to work at assigned plants, coordinate required inspection windows, travel as scheduled, and document findings objectively.

• Ability to obtain and maintain unescorted access to JBSA Fort Sam Houston.

• Ability to communicate effectively, maintain accurate records, collaborate across disciplines, and handle project information in approved systems.

• Ability to maintain a one team mentality amongst all stakeholders.

What Desired Skills You'll Bring:

• Permanent volumetric modular or prefabricated MEP experience and familiarity with factory/site scope interfaces.

• Applicable ICC, AWS, NICET, or other discipline-specific inspection credentials; supplier audit and corrective-action experience.
