Knowledge of measurement uncertainty, MSA, and statistical analysis
Experience with Minitab or equivalent statistical software
Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and data analysis tools
Strong attention to detail and data accuracy
Ability to troubleshoot measurement and inspection issues
Logical and structured approach to problem solving
Ability to clearly communicate technical measurement results
Effective collaboration with Engineering, Quality, and Production teams
Coordinate with the production team to prioritize high priority final inspections while ensuring in-process inspections are completed in a timely manner
Minimum 2–5 years of experience in CMM programming and metrology

Nice To Haves

Experience with PC-DMIS (preferred for particular MPP locations)
Associate’s degree in a STEM field (preferred) (Engineering Technology, Manufacturing Technology, Metrology, or similar)
Experience supporting PPAP and APQP/NPI activities preferred
Equivalent combination of education and relevant experience will be considered.

Responsibilities

Develop, validate, and maintain CMM programs using Zeiss Calypso software.
PC-DMIS programming is also applicable in certain MPP locations

Perform first article, in-process, and final inspections
Training production personnel to operate the CMM
Interpret engineering drawings, CAD models, and specifications using GD&T principles
Ensure measurement methods align with design intent and functional requirements
Analyze inspection data and generate clear, accurate reports
Maintain measurement traceability and documentation per QMS requirements
Support PPAP activities including dimensional layouts and capability studies
Collaborate with Engineering and Quality to define measurement strategies for new parts
Assist in development of inspection plans and measurement methods
Perform Gauge R&R (MSA) and capability studies (Cp/Cpk, Pp/Ppk)
Support calibration activities and ensure compliance with internal and external standards
Troubleshoot measurement discrepancies and drive resolution
Identify opportunities to improve inspection efficiency and accuracy
Support root cause analysis related to dimensional issues
Participate in continuous improvement initiatives related to quality and metrology systems
Maintain CMM programs, inspection records, and measurement documentation
Ensure compliance with applicable standards (ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 13485 as applicable)
Support internal and external audits related to metrology and inspection systems
Perform other duties within the scope of the Quality/Metrology function as assigned, consistent with training, qualifications, and established job classifications.
