We’re hiring a CMM Operator to join our quality team and verify that what leaves our floor meets print, every time. You’ll work in a climate-controlled inspection lab alongside machinists, quality engineers, and program managers, inspecting first articles, in-process parts, and final shipments on tight-tolerance aerospace work. What You'll Do Set up and run coordinate measuring machines to inspect machined components against engineering drawings and 3D modelsExecute existing CMM programs; edit and fine-tune routines as parts and fixturing changeBuild and validate part fixturing and alignment strategies for repeatable measurementInterpret blueprints, GD&T callouts per ASME Y14.5, and model-based definition dataProduce First Article Inspection reports to AS9102 and complete ballooned drawingsDocument and communicate nonconformances; support root cause investigations with dimensional dataUse hand gauging: micrometers, calipers, height gauges, bore gauges, optical comparator, where CMM isn’t the right toolMaintain machine calibration schedules, artifact verification, and inspection records to AS9100 / NADCAP requirementsProvide dimensional feedback to machinists and programmers to correct process drift before it becomes scrap What You Need 2+ years operating CMMs in a machining or precision manufacturing environmentWorking knowledge of PC-DMIS / Calypso / CAMIO / MODUS / MCOSMOSStrong GD&T interpretation: datum structures, position, profile, runoutComfort reading complex machined-part prints and revision-controlled documentationAttention to detail and the discipline to hold a documented processHigh school diploma or GED Nice To Have CMM programming experience (offline programming from CAD a plus)Aerospace or defense manufacturing background; familiarity with AS9100 and AS9102Experience with SPC, capability studies, and gage R&RCMM vision systems, scanning probes, or CT/laser scanning exposureASQ CQI or similar certification What We Have To Offer We are not just building components.
