Other duties as defined by your Supervisor
REQUIREMENTS:
CMM programming is required
Zeiss Calypso software – preferred
Quality Systems and Procedures
GD&T, SPC
Ability to read blueprints
M&M, Comparator and Contractor capabilities
Lab Measurement Equipment and Shop Floor gages
Leadership and Good Communication Skills
Machining Skills:
Production Parts Knowledge: Experience with automotive components and machined castings and forgings, such as engine blocks, cylinder heads, transmission castings, brackets, and shafts
Production Speed & Drift: Familiarity with how high-speed CNC cycles can cause tool wear, thermal expansion, and part drift over longer production runs
Gauges & Fixtures: Familiarity with custom automotive attribute gauges, go/no-go gauges, production fixtures, and surface plate layouts
First-Article & In-Process Inspection: Machining experience provides a strong foundation for quickly qualifying first-article parts and identifying issues during changeovers
Root Cause Analysis (8D / PPAP): When a CMM identifies a dimensional deviation, machining knowledge can help trace the issue back to a specific variable, such as a worn insert, loose fixture, tool wear, or thermal expansion
Relevant Machining Knowledge:
Blueprint Reading: Ability to read complex engineering drawings and understand tolerances, symbols, and datum structures
Material Behavior: Understanding how different metals respond to cutting tools, heat, and clamping pressure, and how these factors can affect part dimensions
Manufacturing Processes: Background with CNC mills, lathes, or manual machining helps identify common machining-related issues such as burrs, tool wear, chatter, and dimensional variation.
Zeiss Calypso Software: Ability to utilize, read, and write inspection programs
Root Cause Problem Solving: When the CMM identifies an out-of-tolerance condition, machining experience can help determine the likely source of dimensional variation
Shop Floor Communication: Ability to speak the same language as machinists and production personnel, making it easier to communicate measurement results, discuss adjustments, and resolve quality issues
