We specialize in machining complex geometries and difficult-to-cut alloys; your expertise in mechanical dimensional inspection is vital to ensuring these intricate designs meet the uncompromising standards of flight safety.
Duties and Responsibilities:
- Mechanical Dimensional Inspection: Utilize precision hand tools—including calipers, micrometers, height gauges, bore gauges, and indicators—Run CMM programs — to verify tight-tolerance features and internal diameters against engineering blueprints.
- Blueprint & GD&T Interpretation: Read and interpret complex engineering drawings and Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) standards for contoured structural components.
- Technical Documentation: Record, organize, and report inspection results. Generate non-conformance reports (NCRs) and collaborate with engineering and manufacturing leads to resolve root causes of defects.
- Equipment Calibration: Set up, calibrate, and perform daily/weekly process control checks on NDT equipment and mechanical measuring tools.
- Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection (FPI): Training provided to perform high-sensitivity Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) on complex, multi-axis machined parts to detect discontinuities in aluminum, titanium, and advanced aerospace alloys.
Qualifications / Requirements:
- Geometric Expertise: Proven track record of inspecting high-precision components with complex geometries (e.g., 5-axis milled parts).
- Mechanical Skills: Proficiency in manual dimensional inspection and the use of standard metrology equipment.
- Vision: Must pass and maintain current eye examinations (Jaeger requirements) as required by NAS-410.
- Experience with Model-Based Definition (MBD) and digital inspection techniques.
- Familiarity with AS9100 quality management systems.
- Knowledge of additional NDT methods (e.g., Magnetic Particle, Eddy Current, or Ultrasonic Testing).
Pay: $26.00 - $31.00 per hour
| Education: | High school diploma or GED |
