Precision Dimensional Inspector -- Aerospace, Defense & Medical Devices

Imagine your day as our Precision Dimensional Inspector

You come in, grab your gauge cart, and step onto a floor where aerospace, defense, and med‑tech components are machined to exacting standards. Early in the shift, you verify set-ups and run in‑process checks at critical operations. Later, you might switch to a complex final inspection—confirming features to drawing callouts, applying GD&T, and recording results in our electronic quality system. When a geometry gets tricky, you move to the CMM to validate true position or profile. If the program calls for it, you’ll conduct a load test on a structural assembly, following step-by-step procedures before making an objective accept/reject decision.

Schedules

• 6:00 am – 2:30 pm, Monday–Friday
• 12:00 pm – 8:30 pm, Monday–Friday
• Training on 1st shift

What you’ll do

• Perform in‑process dimensional checks at defined manufacturing stages per the inspection plan.
• Execute final dimensional, visual, cosmetic, and functional inspections on completed parts.
• Verify parts against engineering drawings and customer specifications using GD&T.
• Use precision tools: calipers, micrometers, height gauges, pin gauges, go/no‑go gauges, depth gauges, and surface plates.
• Operate a CMM when required to confirm complex geometries and GD&T callouts.
• Conduct load testing on structural assemblies per program‑specific procedures when assigned.
• Accurately capture and store measurements in electronic quality/inspection systems.
• Complete First Article Inspections to AS9102 requirements when needed.
• Identify and document nonconformances through the NCR process; make clear accept/reject calls.
• Confirm manufacturing travelers are complete and all required operations/inspections are recorded.
• Verify calibration status of inspection equipment prior to use and report due/overdue items.

What you bring

• 1+ year of dimensional inspection experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Hands‑on proficiency with precision measurement tools (calipers, micrometers, etc.).
• Ability to interpret engineering drawings.
• Working knowledge of GD&T symbols and tolerances.
• Strong attention to detail with objective accept/reject decision‑making.
• Comfort using digital systems for data entry and record keeping.

Bonus points

• CMM operation or programming experience.
• AS9102 First Article Inspection experience.
• Background in aerospace, defense, or medical‑device inspection.
• Experience in AS9100 or ISO 9001 certified environments.
• Bilingual English/Spanish.
