Precision Metrology Quality Inspector II

Step Into the Role

Each shift, you become the guardian of dimensional accuracy. You’ll translate mechanical drawings and GD&T into action, using metrology tools to confirm every feature is within specification. You’ll log results in both paper and electronic records, process transactions in the ERP system, and surface nonconformances with clear, concise reports—while continuously sharpening how inspection gets done.

A Day in the Life

When you arrive, your bench is orderly, gauges are calibrated, and visual management cues guide your flow. You pick up a new lot, read the drawing to identify nominal dimensions and tolerances, then verify features using micrometers (all types), an optical comparator, a Mueller gage, and other core inspection tools. You evaluate cosmetic conditions with a critical eye, determine conformance, capture your findings in both paper and digital systems, and, when needed, write nonconforming reports with minimal oversight. If a CMM stalls, you troubleshoot common outages to keep work moving. Throughout the day, you contribute improvement ideas—and even lead small projects—to make the inspection process better tomorrow than it was today.

What You’ll Be Accountable For

• Verifying parts against drawings and specifications using metrology equipment and GD&T knowledge

• Authoring clear nonconformance reports with minimal supervision
• Maintaining an organized, clean workspace and following visual management rules
• Applying an expert understanding of relevant QMS documents
• Reading mechanical drawings to determine nominal dimensions and tolerances
• Applying basic GD&T callouts (run-out, flatness, true position) during inspection
• Evaluating cosmetic flaws and determining part conformance
• Using all Mechanical Inspector I equipment plus micrometers (all types), optical comparator, and Mueller gage
• Troubleshooting some CMM outages as they occur
• Collaborating as a dependable team player—recognized positively by peers
• Performing other related duties as assigned
