DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES:
Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Develop and maintain dimensional inspection programs for purchased aerospace parts using CMMs and other metrology tools.
- Program and operate CMMs (PC-DMIS, Zeiss Calypso, or equivalent) and other digital measurement systems (laser trackers, optical scanners, comparators, etc.).
- Interpret and apply GD&T (ASME Y14.5) to inspection planning and measurement activities.
- Conduct and support AS9102 First Article Inspections (FAIs/FAIRs), ensuring dimensional compliance and accurate reporting.
- Lead and perform Measurement System Analysis (MSA), Gage R&R, and uncertainty studies to validate measurement systems.
- Manage and maintain the calibration system for inspection and measurement equipment, ensuring traceability to national/international standards (NIST, ISO 17025).
- Support MRB and root cause investigations through advanced dimensional analysis and inspection reporting.
- Act as technical authority for inspection methods, advising inspectors and engineers on metrology practices.
- Partner with suppliers, design engineering, and customer quality representatives (e.g., PWC, RR) to resolve dimensional compliance issues.
- Provide training and mentorship on metrology practices, CMM programming, and calibration requirements.
