About this role
Your mission
Your mission: You'll be the last set of eyes before a pair of Zellerfeld shoes reaches a customer. Your job is to make sure every shoe meets our standards, document what you find, and share insights with the team so we keep getting better. No engineering background needed — just sharp eyes, good focus, and clear communication.
What you'll do
Inspect shoes at different production stages for visual and structural quality — patterns, finish, consistency
Follow existing Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) while helping contribute to making improvements for training and high-quality products
Document findings, track recurring issues, and maintain clear QC logs
Handle rejected pairs — document, report, and help resolve them
Report insights and suggestions back to the product team.
Collaborate with the production team to catch and prevent defects early
Your profile
Safety First - Always have your and our team’s safety as a top priority
A sharp eye — you notice when something's off, even small details others might miss
Comfortable keeping simple, organized logs and communicating findings clearly
Reliable, proactive, and a team player
We'd love someone who has already done some form of checking or inspection work, even informally — think garment checking, food inspection, product sorting, or similar
A background in footwear, fashion, garments, crafts, or any hands-on role is a plus — no technical degree required
Based in Austin or nearby
Why us?
Full training from day one — no prior knowledge needed, but a plus
A stable, full-time permanent role
A front-row seat inside one of the most innovative footwear companies in the world
A flat-hierarchy team where your input is genuinely valued
Real growth opportunities as we scale
