Mechanical Inspector

Job Summary:

We specialize in machining complex geometries and difficult-to-cut alloys; your expertise in mechanical dimensional inspection is vital to ensuring these intricate designs meet the uncompromising standards of flight safety.

Duties and Responsibilities:

Mechanical Dimensional Inspection:

Utilize precision hand tools—including calipers, micrometers, height gauges, bore gauges, and indicators—Run CMM programs — to verify tight-tolerance features and internal diameters against engineering blueprints.

Blueprint & GD&T Interpretation:

Read and interpret complex engineering drawings and Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) standards for contoured structural components.

Technical Documentation:

Record, organize, and report inspection results. Generate non-conformance reports (NCRs) and collaborate with engineering and manufacturing leads to resolve root causes of defects.

Equipment Calibration:

Set up, calibrate, and perform daily/weekly process control checks on NDT equipment and mechanical measuring tools. Fluorescent Penetrant Inspection (FPI): Training provided to perform high-sensitivity Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) on complex, multi-axis machined parts to detect discontinuities in aluminum, titanium, and advanced aerospace alloys. Qualifications /

Requirements:

Geometric Expertise:

Proven track record of inspecting high-precision components with complex geometries (e.g., 5-axis milled parts).

Mechanical Skills:

Proficiency in manual dimensional inspection and the use of standard metrology equipment.

Vision:

Must pass and maintain current eye examinations (Jaeger requirements) as required by NAS-410. Preferred Skills Experience with Model-Based Definition (MBD) and digital inspection techniques. Familiarity with AS9100 quality management systems. Knowledge of additional NDT methods (e.g., Magnetic Particle, Eddy Current, or Ultrasonic Testing).

Pay:

$26.00 - $31.00 per hour

Education:

High school diploma or GED Min experience: Minimum of 2-4 years of quality inspection experience in an aerospace manufacturing environment. slVN7SV8ks
