What to Expect

A successful Metrology Technician will work with a cross-functional team of Engineers, Machinists, and other technicians to measure components and subassemblies. As part of an R&D team, no two days will be the same. The candidate must be highly motivated to learn and grow, as there is a wide array of metrology equipment onsite that require experts to extract their full potential. The candidate must also remain flexible to accommodate shifting priorities and schedules. By joining this team, you will have the opportunity to use high quality equipment, and work with a team that consistently pushes the boundaries of manufacturing and engineering.

What You'll Do

• Program and operate CMM equipment to measure highly complex components with tight tolerances
• Program and operate gear measure equipment
• Work with various other types of measurement technology (optical measurement, profile projectors, height gauges, and other types of manual inspections)
• Prepare inspection reports according to critical characteristics on drawings
• Coordinate calibrations and work to improve equipment maintenance issues
• Source metrology equipment as needed to fill capability gaps as they arise
• Practice 5S cyclical methodology (sort, set in order, shine, standardize, and sustain) to drive continuous improvement in the lab workspace

What You'll Bring

• 5 years minimum experience programming and operating a CMM

• Experience in both Calypso and MCOSMOS is an asset

• Ability to design inspection fixtures as needed to hold parts during measurement

• Ability to work under the pressure of tight deadlines
