CMM Programmer / Operator

Description

Requirements

• Develop and modify CMM programs from engineering drawings and authorized CAD models.
• Interpret complex blueprints and GD&T requirements, including datums, position, profile, runout, form, orientation, and material condition modifiers.
• Establish CMM alignments, datum reference frames, probing strategies, fixtures, measurement paths, and inspection methods.
• Set up and qualify probes, fixtures, and part configurations.
• Validate new and revised programs fro accuracy, repeatability, and reliable measurement results.
• Perform first-piece, in-process, final, and first-article inspections.
• Troubleshoot measurement differences involving alignment, fixturing, probing, temperature, surface conditions, software evaluation, and manufacturing variation.
• Use precision inspection equipment including micrometers, indicators, height gages, bore gages, and thread gages.
• Prepare accurate and traceable dimensional inspection reports.
• Support AS9102 First Article Inspection Reports (FAIRs), PPAP documentation, Net-Inspect, and other customer inspection requirements.
• Work closely with Manufacturing, Engineering, and Quality to provide clear dimensional feedback and resolve inspection issues.
• Maintain CMM program revision control, calibration requirements, Inspection documentation, and quality records.
• Support continuous improvement, measurement system analysis, Gage R&R, SPC, audits, and corrective actions.

Qualifications

• Approximately 5 years of precision inspection/CMM experience, including at least 3 years of independent CMM programming and troubleshooting, or equivalent demonstrated technical experiences.
• Strong blueprint reading and advanced GD&T knowledge.
• Ability to independently create and prove out CMM programs rather than only koperate existing programs.
• Strong understanding of CMM alignments, probing, fixturing, measurement error, repeatability, and inspection methodology.
• Experience using precision hand-measuring equipment.
• Ability to identify and properly document nonconforming product.
• Strong communication and documentation skills.
• High school diploma/GED or equivalent technical experience.
