What you'll do
- Review and validate first-article inspection (FAI) reports derived from 3D scan data.
- Conduct detailed scan-to-CAD comparisons, analyzing measurement deviations and their sources.
- Set up, interpret, and document datum structures, profiles, and position callouts as per industry standards.
- Utilize CMM measurement techniques and perform uncertainty analysis for dimensional integrity.
- Differentiate between actual part deviations and artefacts caused by fixturing or alignment issues.
- Deliver clear, comprehensive written and verbal feedback to support decision-making on FAI sign-off.
- Contribute nuanced, high-quality metrology input to inform and enhance AI system development.
What we're looking for
Nice to have
- Expertise in Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) and FAI processes within manufacturing or quality environments.
- Proficiency with 3D scanning devices and inspection software (e.g., PolyWorks, GOM Inspect, or similar).
- Strong background in CMM measurement techniques and uncertainty analysis.
- Proven ability to interpret engineering drawings, CAD models, and technical specifications.
- Experience producing or approving FAI reports backed by practical metrology knowledge.
- Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a keen attention to explanatory detail.
- Analytical mindset for discerning true quality issues versus artefacts introduced by measurement setup.
