Quality Metrology Engineer

Flex•Austin, TX

About The Position

The Quality Metrology Engineer will be based in Austin Research Blvd, Texas, and report to Igor Besic. The role is responsible for developing test methods and procedures to determine product dimensional features, and for validation and production inspections of products made through manufacturing and assembly processes. The engineer works with engineering and manufacturing teams, applies metrology and dimensional-analysis methods, and may create data-processing and automation tools or support statistical and measurement-system analyses. The position emphasizes clear and simple programs, designs, documentation, and reports, technical problem-solving, continuous improvement, and using technology to automate repetitive work.

Requirements

Experience with metrology.
Ability to apply fundamental ASME Y14.5 and/or ISO GPS principles to interpret, evaluate, and communicate dimensional and geometric requirements accurately.
Ability to use 2D and 3D CAD systems.
Ability to perform accurate measurements using manual inspection tools and assess measurement results for validity and repeatability.
Understanding of manufacturing processes and common manufacturing defects to anticipate variability.
Ability to be effective with engineering and manufacturing teams.
Enjoys solving technical problems from trivial to complex.
Growth mindset that embraces failure as an opportunity for learning and improvement.

Nice To Haves

Experience with CAD systems such as SolidWorks, NX, Creo, or MBD.
Experience with CMM software platforms such as DMIS, PC-DMIS, Calypso, Metrologic, Modus, Micro-Vu, GOM, or Geomagic.
Experience with programming or data tools such as Python, JavaScript, Java, or SQL.
Familiarity with statistical methods for measurement data and Measurement System Analysis concepts.
Enthusiasm for using technology to automate repetitive tasks and improve efficiency.

Responsibilities

Develop test methods and procedures to determine dimensional features of products.
Perform validation and production inspections of products produced through manufacturing and assembly processes.
Interpret, evaluate, and communicate dimensional and geometric requirements using ASME Y14.5 and/or ISO GPS principles.
Use 2D and 3D CAD systems to design, interpret, and collaborate.
Perform manual measurements and assess results for validity and repeatability.
Develop, execute, and maintain inspection programs using CMM software platforms.
Work effectively with engineering and manufacturing teams.
May create and maintain custom data-processing and automation tools to improve data analysis, reporting, and workflow efficiency.
May apply basic statistical methods to measurement data to support evaluation of uncertainty, trends, and decision-making.
May support and apply Measurement System Analysis concepts to ensure reliable and capable measurement systems.
Identify opportunities to optimize processes, reduce waste, and improve productivity while balancing technical rigor with practical time constraints.
