Job Description
As a CMM Inspector on the Manufacturing team, you will own the dimensional inspection and qualification of tubes, weldments, and machined parts — running portable-arm and fixed CMM measurement, tactile probing and laser scanning, fixturing, and the first article inspection that qualifies every part against drawing.
Key Responsibilities
- Perform dimensional inspection of tubes, weldments, and machined parts, selecting the appropriate measurement approach — portable-arm or fixed CMM, tactile probing or scanning — for each feature.
- Read and interpret GD&T — datums, profile, position, cylindricity, and flatness — directly from engineering drawings.
- Build and maintain reusable inspection programs and methods to scale throughput and drive repeatable results.
- Design and set up repeatable fixtures for tubes and weldments, and manage part temperature (e.g., letting aluminum reach thermal equilibrium) before measuring.
- Perform First Article Inspection and produce clear, audit-ready inspection records and documentation.
- Write clear nonconformance reports (NCRs), support root-cause analysis, and feed issues back to production rather than simply rejecting parts.
- Maintain equipment calibration and measurement integrity through routine verification and artifact checks.
- Help stand up and shape the inspection function as the department grows — recommending equipment, methods, and standards, and building the processes that let inspection scale with production.
Requirements
- 7+ years of experience in dimensional inspection, metrology, or a related quality engineering role.
- Hands-on portable-arm experience (Hexagon Absolute Arm), not just fixed CMM, with sound operator technique for holding accuracy.
- GD&T fluency— able to read datums, profile, position, and cylindricity from a real drawing.
- Proficiency with CMM inspection software (PC-DMIS and/or PolyWorks), including both tactile probing and laser scanning.
- Experience inspecting tubes, weldments, and machined parts — straightness, roundness, weld distortion, and flatness on sealing surfaces — and the fixture to measure them repeatably.
- Associate degree, technical certificate, or equivalent experience in metrology, quality, or a related manufacturing discipline.
- U.S. citizenship (required for export-controlled and national-security-systems work).
- Understanding of measurement uncertainty and Gage R&R — able to judge whether the arm can actually hold the required tolerance.
- Experience measuring aluminum and other parts sensitive to thermal expansion, including letting parts reach temperature before measuring.
- Experience in energy, infrastructure, manufacturing, aerospace, defense, nuclear, or other highly regulated industries.
- Background in AS9100 and/or NQA-1 quality systems and First Article Inspection (AS9102).
- Eligibility to handle export-controlled data.
- Proficiency with inspection software including PC-DMIS and Verisurf.
- Able to drive inspection equipment selection, and own the maintenance and calibration of that equipment.
- Ability to work extended hours and weekends as necessary.
