• Technical Inspection: Conduct comprehensive quality inspections and audits of incoming materials and finished parts.
• Blueprint & Tolerance Analysis: Read and interpret complex engineering drawings and blueprints to verify dimensional accuracy and part integrity.
• Metrology Mastery: Utilize advanced measuring instruments, including calipers, micrometers, and gages, to determine critical dimensional data.
• Data Integrity: Maintain accurate parts and supply inventories within our MRP system, reporting and documenting all non-conforming materials.
• Leadership & Safety: Serve as a technical lead, ensuring safety protocols (including lock-out tag-out) are strictly followed while prioritizing tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Requirements

Who You Are (Requirements)

• Experienced Inspector: Minimum of one (1) year of professional experience dedicated to Quality Inspection in a manufacturing setting.
• Skilled Machinist: Minimum of one (1) year of hands-on experience working in a Machine Shop environment.
• Technically Proficient: Advanced math skills and the ability to perform complex tolerance analysis.
• Detail-Obsessed: Exceptional attention to detail and a commitment to consistency in following established processes.
• Adaptable Leader: A "can-do" attitude with the ability to shift priorities quickly and keep up with a high-velocity production schedule.
• Safety-First Mindset: Solid knowledge of proper lock-out tag-out procedures.
• Certified: Forklift certification is a strong plus.
