Translate engineering drawings and 3D models into robust, repeatable CMM measurement programs for part verification.
When datum structures are missing, devise practical measurement strategies that meet intent and ensure reliable results.
Confirm materials and finished product conform to print requirements and applicable specifications.
Author new, part‑specific CMM programs and remediate/optimize existing ones for quality and throughput.
Perform hands‑on measurements using the right tools for the job (Optical Comparator, Micrometers, Calipers, etc.).
Inspect to internal/external specifications and all relevant regulatory expectations.
Capture test data and produce formal technical reports using defined templates (FAI, Capability Studies, Gage R&R, etc.).
Identify and segregate nonconforming material; initiate NCMR documentation per internal procedures.
Lead continuous improvement in the metrology lab; draft and maintain controlled lab procedures where needed.
Serve as a measurement methods expert for production and quality teams, coaching on technique and best practices.
