We are seeking an experienced Metrology & Dimensional Inspection Specialist to perform detailed dimensional verification of complex precision-manufactured components and elastomeric molded products within an AS9100 quality management system.
This role is focused on the interpretation of engineering drawings, CAD models, GD&T requirements, and dimensional analysis of complex three-dimensional geometries. The successful candidate will perform First Article Inspections (FAI) and final inspections using a variety of precision measurement equipment and analytical techniques to determine product conformity.
This is not primarily a visual or cosmetic inspection position. Success in this role requires strong technical aptitude, advanced measurement skills, engineering drawing interpretation, and the ability to determine dimensional compliance through calculation, analysis, and investigative measurement techniques.
Essential Responsibilities
- Perform First Article Inspection (FAI) and final acceptance inspection of complex aerospace components and elastomeric molded products.
- Verify dimensional requirements using engineering drawings, CAD models, specifications, and customer requirements.
- Interpret and apply GD&T requirements in accordance with ASME Y14.5.
- Develop inspection methods for dimensions that cannot be directly measured.
- Calculate required dimensional values using measured data, geometric relationships, trigonometry, and engineering calculations.
- Perform sectioning or destructive analysis when required to verify internal features.
Measurement Equipment
- CMMs
- Vision systems
- Optical comparators
- Height gages
- Micrometers
- Calipers
- Bore gages
- Pin gages
- Surface plates
Required Qualifications
- 5+ years of dimensional inspection, metrology, manufacturing engineering, or quality engineering experience.
- Experience inspecting complex machined, molded, or aerospace products.
- Ability to read engineering drawings and CAD models.
- Strong GD&T knowledge.
- AS9102 First Article Inspection experience.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
What Makes Someone Successful
- Enjoys solving dimensional measurement challenges.
- Can determine compliance through calculations and engineering analysis.
- Thinks like an engineer and uses objective measurement data.
- Comfortable developing new measurement methods when features cannot be measured directly.
This Position Is NOT Primarily Focused On
- Cosmetic inspection
- Burr/FOD inspections
- Packaging inspections
- Production line visual inspection activities
