Job Description Summary
Are you passionate about innovation? Are you excited at the opportunity to electrify and decarbonize the world?
We operate with a founder’s mindset. We deliver innovation with passion, speed, and courage. We continuously challenge our thinking and are empowered to dream big and take smart risks.
What impact you’ll make
As a member of the Process Industrialization team, you will help define, develop, and industrialize advanced CNC probing and on-machine metrology solutions that improve manufacturing capability, process consistency, and product quality.
You will be responsible for implementing robust probing strategies across CNC platforms to reduce setup variation, improve in-process verification, and support more capable and repeatable manufacturing processes for critical components.
If you know how to turn CNC probing and measurement technology into practical, production-ready solutions, we want you.
We are seeking a hands-on, experienced CNC Metrology & Probing Integration Specialist to lead the development, implementation, validation, and standardization of on-machine probing applications in a production environment.
This role combines CNC programming, control logic, in-process measurement strategy, hardware integration, process validation, and cross-functional problem solving, all while operating within our SQDC (Safety, Quality, Delivery, Cost) values. You will work in a multidisciplinary environment, partnering across manufacturing, quality, operations, and engineering teams to deliver sustainable process improvements.
Job Description
What you’ll do
- Your main mission will be to develop, industrialize, and standardize CNC probing and on-machine metrology solutions that support quality, productivity, and manufacturing capability improvements.
- Develop, implement, and optimize probing routines for part setup, work offset setting, part alignment, in-process feature verification, and tool checking across CNC platforms used in production.
- Create and maintain machine-level probing logic, macros, and standardized routines that improve consistency, reduce setup dependency, and strengthen process control.
- Support closed-loop machining applications using probing data to update work offsets, coordinate alignment, and tool wear offsets where appropriate.
- Develop probing approaches for complex features, including multi-axis and non-orthogonal geometries, based on product requirements and machine capability.
- Support installation, calibration, troubleshooting, and sustainment of spindle probes, tool setters, and related machine-integrated metrology hardware.
- Establish standard methods, programming practices, recovery procedures, and best practices for probing applications across the shop.
- Translate drawing requirements, GD&T, and critical product characteristics into practical on-machine measurement routines.
- Partner with quality and manufacturing teams to validate on-machine measurement performance through repeatability studies, data correlation, and process verification activities.
- Investigate probing-related failures, instability, and process variation, and lead or support structured root-cause analysis and corrective actions.
- Support development of work instructions, setup documentation, validation records, control plans, and training materials.
- Train and support programmers, engineers, and operators on standardized probing methods, troubleshooting practices, and effective use of machine-integrated metrology systems.
- Collaborate across engineering, operations, and quality teams to deliver scalable, sustainable solutions in a production environment.
- This role is 100% time on GE Vernova located in Greenville, SC site.
