CMM Operator (Zeiss/LK)-2nd Shift$25-$29/hr + 10% Shift Differential | Day 1 Benefits | Weekly Pay | 75+ Years of Stability**Think BIG. Literally**If you've spent your career inspecting parts you can hold in one hand, this role is a different animal - and for the right person, a more interesting one. Acme Industries machines **large, complex castings and forgings** - finished components measured in feet, not inches, and weighing anywhere from 50 pounds to over a ton. We're looking for an experienced CMM Operator who knows what it takes to inspect **big, heavy, high-value parts** on large-envelope Zeiss and LK Coordinate Measuring Machines. **What Makes This Role Different**Inspecting large components is its own discipline. On any given shift you might be:- Staging and orienting **oversized machined castings and forgings** on the CMM using overhead cranes, hoists, and custom fixturing - not tweezers and vises- Running programs on **large-envelope Zeiss and LK CMMs** built to handle parts that dwarf a typical granite plate setup- Managing thermal stabilization, datum strategy, and probe planning for parts where a small setup error compounds across several feet of geometry- Verifying tight tolerances on **one-of-a-kind, high-dollar components** for demanding industries - where a scrapped part isn't a bin of rejects, it's a serious event If you take pride in the planning, rigging, and setup judgment that large-part inspection demands, you'll fit right in here. **What You'll Do**- Perform dimensional inspection of large precision-machined castings and forgings using Zeiss and LK CMMs- Safely handle, lift, and fixture heavy components using overhead cranes, hoists, and lifting equipment- Interpret complex blueprints and GD&T to verify part conformance- Execute existing CMM programs and assist with setup and alignment for new part configurations- Document inspection results and communicate findings to machinists, engineers, and quality leadership- Support first-article, in-process, and final inspections in an AS9100 environment **What We're Looking For**- Experience operating Zeiss and/or LK CMMs (Calypso and/or CAMIO experience a plus)- **Hands-on experience inspecting large or heavy components** - castings, forgings, weldments, or similar (candidates whose background is exclusively small parts will find this a significant transition)- Comfort and experience with overhead cranes, hoists, and rigging for part handling (or willingness to be trained and certified)- Strong blueprint reading and GD&T interpretation skills- Attention to detail and sound judgment - our parts are too valuable for guesswork- Ability to work 2nd shift **Why Acme Industries**- **$25–$29/hr plus a 10% shift differential**- **Benefits starting Day 1** and **weekly pay**- 75+ years of stability serving aerospace, defense, and other demanding industries- Modern, climate-controlled inspection environment with serious metrology equipment- A shop where quality people are respected - your findings drive real decisions **Ready to work at a bigger scale?
