ISO 17025 testing laboratory for water, food, cosmetics, and environmental compliance
CQA is a 37-year-old accredited testing laboratory conducting over 12,000 assay types across water quality, food safety, cosmetics, soils, and waste materials. The hiring velocity is accelerating with a broad cross-functional mix—HR, ops, quality, research, and sales all active—while project focus reveals internal-facing work: sample collection workflows, climate surveys, performance management restructuring, and people analytics. This suggests a lab simultaneously scaling external testing capacity and addressing organizational friction points around culture and process.
CQA operates an ISO 17025–accredited laboratory based in Campinas, Brazil, founded in 1987. The lab performs physicochemical and microbiological testing across regulated industries: drinking water and dialysis water, food production, cosmetics, raw materials, soil remediation, and waste disposal. It holds INMETRO accreditation (CRL-0337), ANVISA registration (ANALI-050), and MAPA certification for fertilizers and inoculants. The tech footprint is on-premise and cloud-hybrid (Windows Server, Linux, GCP, HPLC, FT-IR instrumentation), reflecting the equipment-heavy nature of analytical chemistry. At 51–200 employees, the organization is mid-market and privately held.
