Key Responsibilities

CMM Programming & Inspection:

• Develop, validate, and maintain CMM programs using PC-DMIS or equivalent software for complex aerospace components.
• Perform first article inspections (FAI), in-process, and final inspections using CMM and other precision measurement tools.
• Interpret engineering drawings and GD&T to create accurate and efficient inspection routines.
• Troubleshoot and optimize CMM programs for repeatability, accuracy, and cycle time reduction.

Equipment & Process Management:

• Ensure proper calibration, maintenance, and functionality of all dimensional inspection equipment including CMMs, height gauges, micrometers, calipers, and optical systems.
• Lead root cause analysis and corrective actions for equipment-related issues.
• Collaborate with maintenance and engineering teams to resolve equipment downtime and performance issues.

Quality & Compliance:

• Support AS9100 and NADCAP compliance through robust dimensional inspection processes.
• Maintain traceability and documentation of inspection results in accordance with aerospace quality standards.
• Participate in internal and external audits, providing technical expertise on dimensional inspection processes.

Continuous Improvement:

• Drive continuous improvement initiatives in metrology and inspection processes.
• Train and mentor junior engineers and technicians in CMM programming and dimensional inspection best practices.
• Evaluate and implement new technologies and methodologies to enhance inspection capabilities.

Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or related field.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in CMM programming and dimensional inspection in aerospace or precision manufacturing.
• Proficiency in PC-DMIS or equivalent CMM software.
• Strong understanding of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) and blueprint reading.
• Experience with heat exchanger components or similar complex geometries.

Preferred:

• Experience with Hexagon CMM systems.
• Familiarity with MSA, SPC, and statistical analysis tools.
• Knowledge of AS9102 FAI requirements and aerospace quality systems.
