Requirements:
About You
You understand that good inspection requires more than knowing how to use a measuring tool. You need to understand what the measurement means, how it relates to the manufactured part, and why it matters.
You may be a strong fit if you bring:
A high school diploma, vocational school diploma, GED, or equivalent
Manufacturing, machining, or quality inspection experience
The ability to understand inspection data and explain how it relates to the manufactured part
Strong math skills used in dimensional inspection and manufacturing
Experience using micrometers, calipers, gauges, or similar precision measuring equipment
Strong attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy
The ability to read and work from technical documentation and inspection requirements
Strong computer skills, including Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint
Clear communication and the ability to work effectively with production and quality teams
A commitment to safety, product quality, and consistent execution
Because of business needs and trade compliance requirements, this position must be held by a U.S. Citizen or U.S. Permanent Resident.
Defining Success
Success in this role means providing accurate, timely inspection results that help production move forward without compromising quality.
You will be successful when:
Products are inspected accurately against applicable requirements
First article inspections identify conformance before full-scale production begins
Inspection results are documented completely and consistently
Measuring equipment is used correctly and inspection data is interpreted accurately
Quality concerns are identified and communicated before products move further through production
Inspections are completed on time to support production schedules
Products move efficiently to the next work center after inspection
Quality data provides useful information to Manufacturing and Quality teams
Customer, quality, and safety requirements remain central to every inspection
Additional Tools in Your Toolbox May Include
An Associate's Degree in Quality Engineering or a related discipline is preferred but not required.
Additional experience that can help you succeed includes:
Working knowledge of Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs)
Working knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)
Previous experience in a machining or manufacturing environment
Experience supporting aerospace manufacturing or aerospace supply
Experience interpreting drawings, dimensional requirements, and inspection data
Familiarity with quality systems and manufacturing documentation
This Is Hands-On Manufacturing Work
This position works directly with manufactured components and inspection equipment in an active manufacturing environment.
You should be comfortable spending your day inspecting physical products, using precision measuring equipment, working with production teams, documenting results, and balancing careful inspection with the need to keep production moving.
Accuracy matters, but so does timing. The goal is not simply to find problems—it is to provide reliable quality information that helps Elmet manufacture the right product correctly and efficiently.
