About Our Client
Our client is a leading defense and aerospace engineering company providing innovative solutions for complex challenges in defense, space, cyber, and commercial fields. With state-of-the-art facilities across the United States, they specialize in responsive, cost-effective engineering, prototyping, scientific solutions, and advanced manufacturing for mission-critical applications.
Job Description
We're seeking skilled PCMM Technicians to join our quality control team inspecting large-scale aerospace parts and assemblies at various stages of manufacturing. This hands-on role focuses on precision measurement and inspection using advanced equipment including Romer arms, Leica laser trackers, CMMs, and 3D scanners. You'll be responsible for first piece through final inspection of complex components including weldments, integrated assemblies, and tooling, ensuring compliance with exacting aerospace quality standards.
Duties and Responsibilities
• Inspect large-scale aerospace parts at various manufacturing stages from first piece through final inspection using advanced metrology equipment
• Operate Romer arms, Leica AT960 and AT402 laser trackers, CMMs, and 3D scanners (handheld and blue light) for precision measurements
• Perform manual layout inspections using traditional measurement tools and techniques
• Inspect complex components including weldments, integrated assemblies, tooling, and aerospace hardware
• Read and interpret detailed engineering drawings, assembly schematics, and technical specifications accurately
• Apply GD&T principles per ASME Y14.5-2009 standards to inspection activities
• Execute and witness test procedures according to established protocols and generate comprehensive test reports
• Document non-conforming material and initiate Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs) as required
• Provide clear, concise feedback to machinists and engineers based on measurement data and analysis
• Generate quality documentation including inspection reports, bubble prints, Certificates of Conformance (C of C's), and NCRs
• Maintain and verify calibration status of all measurement equipment
• Operate and maintain Spatial Analyzer or similar PCMM software for data collection and analysis
• Use standard measurement equipment including micrometers, calipers, bore micrometers, and optical comparators
• Work independently with minimal supervision in fast-paced manufacturing environment
• Collaborate with engineering and production teams to resolve quality issues and support continuous improvement
• Support Material Review Board (MRB) activities for disposition of non-conforming material
• Prepare handwritten and computer-generated inspection reports with accuracy and attention to detail
Required Experience/Skills
• High school diploma or GED with 3-5 years or more of relevant precision measurement and inspection experience
• 4+ years of hands-on experience using Romer Arm, Leica AT960 Laser Tracker, Leica AT402 Laser Tracker, or CMM equipment
• Proficiency in Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) per ASME Y14.5-2009 standard
• Fluency with standard measurement equipment including micrometers, calipers, intra micrometers, and optical comparators
• Demonstrated experience reading and interpreting complex engineering drawings, assembly schematics, and technical specifications
• Ability to execute and witness test procedures and generate accurate, detailed test reports
• Experience generating quality documentation including inspection reports and non-conformance documentation
• Strong attention to detail with commitment to precision and accuracy
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills for providing feedback to technical teams
• Ability to work independently with minimal supervision in fast-paced environment
• Physical ability to lift and carry up to 35 pounds
• U.S. citizenship required
• Must possess Secret Clearance
Nice-to-Haves
• Experience with Spatial Analyzer or similar PCMM software platforms
• Background in inspection of complex aerospace hardware and assemblies
• Experience with non-conforming material disposition and Material Review Board (MRB) processes
• Familiarity with review and creation of Acceptance Data Packs and First Article Inspection documentation
• Knowledge of ISO 9001/AS9100 quality management systems
• Understanding of AS5553 counterfeit prevention requirements
• Experience with AS9102 First Article Inspection requirements and documentation
• Background in aerospace manufacturing or defense contractor environment
• Experience with blue light scanning technology and advanced 3D metrology
• Familiarity with statistical process control (SPC) and quality metrics
• Previous work with large-scale weldments and integrated assemblies
Education
High school diploma or GED required. Technical training or coursework in metrology, quality control, manufacturing technology, or mechanical inspection preferred.
Pay & Benefits Summary
• Competitive hourly rate commensurate with experience and qualifications
• 6-month contract assignment with strong possibility of extension
• Excellent opportunity for conversion to permanent full-time employment
• Comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, and vision insurance
