Overview
We’re hiring CMM Quality Inspectors for our aerospace precision machining facility in Tempe.
You’ll inspect complex, tight-tolerance components for aerospace, defense, semiconductor, and medical customers using a Zeiss CMM running Calypso software, along with manual inspection tools including micrometers, calipers, and other precision measuring equipment. The role includes first article, in-process, and final inspection, working closely with machinists, programmers, and engineers to ensure parts meet customer specifications.
Experience with other CMM platforms such as PC-DMIS is welcomed—we can train the Zeiss/Calypso specifics for candidates with a strong metrology background.
