$35.00–$43.00 per hour, depending on experience

Position Summary

ABC Sheet Metal / Steeldyne Industries is seeking an experienced, hands-on Aerospace Quality Inspector to inspect precision sheet metal, machined, welded, and fabricated aerospace components.

This is a working, shop-floor inspection position. You will personally perform dimensional inspections, portable CMM arm inspections, first article inspections, and final inspections while maintaining accurate AS9100 and AS9102 documentation.

Our first preference is candidates who are already trained and experienced with FARO, Hexagon, or ROMER articulated-arm CMM systems.

We will also consider candidates with strong CMM setup and programming experience on bridge, gantry, horizontal-arm, shop-floor/fixed, or comparable CMM systems if they have a strong dimensional inspection and GD&T background and can be trained on our FARO/Hexagon portable CMM arms. CMM operator-only experience without setup or programming experience is not considered equivalent.

What You Will Do

• Perform receiving, in-process, first article, layout, and final inspections of precision sheet metal, machined, formed, welded, fabricated, and assembled aerospace components.
• Operate FARO, Hexagon, and ROMER articulated-arm portable CMM equipment.
• Perform dimensional layouts, CAD-to-part comparisons, tooling checks, fixture checks, and inspection reporting.
• Complete and review AS9102 First Article Inspection Reports, including Forms 1, 2, and 3, along with ballooned drawings and characteristic accountability reports.
• Read and interpret engineering drawings, GD&T, customer specifications, purchase orders, and quality requirements.
• Use calipers, micrometers, height gages, bore gages, thread gages, indicators, pin gages, and surface plate equipment.
• Document inspection results and maintain accurate inspection, traceability, and FAIR records.
• Prioritize inspection work and work directly with machining, sheet metal, welding, engineering, production, and quality personnel to resolve inspection issues.
• Identify and document nonconforming material and assist with NCRs, MRB activity, root-cause investigations, and corrective actions as needed.
• Support supplier source inspections and internal or customer audits while following AS9100D procedures and applicable customer quality requirements.

Required Qualifications

• At least five years of hands-on quality inspection experience in an AS9100 or AS9100D aerospace manufacturing environment.
• Experience inspecting both precision sheet metal and machined components.
• Strong blueprint reading and GD&T knowledge.
• Experience with tight-tolerance aerospace components and standard dimensional inspection tools.
• Hands-on experience with AS9102 First Article Inspection Reports.
• Ability to work independently on the production floor and accurately document inspection results and product traceability.
• Strong hands-on CMM inspection experience meeting one of the following:
• • Preferred: Experience operating FARO, Hexagon, or ROMER articulated-arm CMM systems.
  • Also considered: Setup and programming experience with bridge, gantry, horizontal-arm, shop-floor/fixed, or comparable CMM systems, combined with strong dimensional inspection and GD&T experience.

Preferred Qualifications

• FARO, Hexagon, or ROMER articulated-arm experience.
• Verisurf software experience.
• Portable CMM programming or inspection-routine development experience.
• Experience inspecting aerospace weldments, fabricated assemblies, tooling, and fixtures.
• Supplier source inspection experience.
• Experience with NCRs, MRB, CAPA, root cause, and corrective actions.
• AS9100 internal audit experience.

Apply

Please submit a current resume clearly showing relevant aerospace inspection experience and any FARO, Hexagon, ROMER, or CMM setup/programming experience, along with GD&T and AS9102 experience.
