Please note that there is a training period for at least 2 to 4 weeks on 1st shift.

What you'll do:

  • Perform high-accuracy laser scanning of the client's components to support production build-out and metrology engineering analysis, delivering results on tight timelines
  • Operate CMM equipment and run inspection programs for special requests and receiving inspections; document results clearly and consistently
  • Support daily calibration checks, routine maintenance, and basic troubleshooting for metrology equipment (laser scanners, portable CMM arms, and fixed CMMs) to ensure reliable measurement performance
  • Maintain a safe, organized, and audit-ready quality lab by supporting 5S standards across Quality Control

What we’re looking for:

  • High school diploma or equivalent
  • 6+ years of experience in a manufacturing or factory environment
  • Working knowledge of GD&T (ASME Y14.5) through training, coursework, or on-the-job experience
  • Exposure to advanced metrology methods (e.g., laser scanning, CMM inspection) through prior roles, training, or technical programs
  • Strong foundation in mechanical inspection fundamentals (reading drawings, using precision measurement tools, and documenting results)
  • Hands-on quality inspection experience (in-process, final, or receiving inspection)
  • Familiarity with advanced metrology tools and workflows (e.g., laser scanners, CMMs, portable arms) and an interest in deepening expertise
  • Proficient in interpreting engineering drawings and applying GD&T per ASME Y14.5
  • Able to set up, maintain, and use common precision inspection tools (calipers, micrometers, bore gages, ring/plug gages, profilometer, coating thickness gage, comparator, sine bar, etc.)
  • Experience operating CMMs and/or portable measurement arms (e.g., Romer/FARO) is a plus

Bonus points for:

  • Experience with fabrication processes (machining, molding, casting, composites, welding, or similar)
  • CAD experience (modeling, drafting, or interpreting models to support inspection)
  • Basic data analysis and statistics familiarity (e.g., gage R&R, SPC, DOE)

You should be proficient in:

  • GD&T
  • Quality Inspection Experience
  • Precision Measurement & Hand Metrology
  • Quality Control Data Analysis
  • Blueprint Reading

Machines & technologies you'll use:
