Quality Control Inspector - CMM

WET Design • Los Angeles, CA

12d • Onsite

About The Position

As a Quality Control Inspector, you’ll be the technical bridge between design intent and manufacturing reality. You’ll verify complex, high-precision components used in our water delivery systems, lighting assemblies, and motion platforms — ensuring everything performs exactly as engineered. This role combines precision metrology with practical shop-floor collaboration and offers autonomy to shape quality processes that actually work.

Requirements

• Technical degree, trade school certificate, or equivalent hands-on experience in precision manufacturing or mechanical inspection
• 5+ years of experience in mechanical, electro-mechanical, or fabrication quality control
• Proficiency with CMM or FARO Arm systems; ability to write or modify PC-DMIS routines a big plus
• Confident with GD&T, blueprint reading, and precision measurement at tight tolerances
• Comfortable operating in a collaborative, high-mix, low-volume environment where no two projects are identical
• Skilled at troubleshooting — you apply good judgment and technical curiosity instead of rigid process-driven thinking
• Comfortable using Microsoft Office, and ideally some exposure to ERP/MRP or quality data systems
• Strong mechanical intuition, problem-solving mindset, and pride in precision craftsmanship

Responsibilities

• Perform dimensional and visual inspections on precision parts, weldments, and assemblies across fabrication, machining, and integration stages
• Use advanced measurement tools — from micrometers and height gauges to CMMs and FARO Arms — to verify tolerances down to the micron
• Create and run inspection programs in PC-DMIS or compatible platforms to streamline repeat inspections
• Translate drawings and GD&T requirements into effective inspection strategies without drowning in bureaucracy
• Partner with engineers to review non-conformances, lead root cause investigations, and develop pragmatic solutions
• Manage calibration and verification of all measurement tools and equipment
• Support continuous improvement with real data — not just paperwork
• Maintain a clean, efficient, and organized workspace using Lean/5S principles
