Precision Mechanical Quality Inspector (Dimensional Metrology)

Location

Phoenix, CA

A Day in the Life

You arrive ready to protect quality from the very first part. You review mechanical drawings and specifications, map out the inspection plan, and set up your gauges. With calipers, micrometers, and other precision tools in hand, you verify critical dimensions and tolerances on mechanical components and assemblies. Every measurement is documented, every nonconformance clearly recorded. When something looks off, you partner with engineering and production to resolve issues and implement corrective actions. Throughout the day, you contribute ideas to improve inspection processes, share tips with junior inspectors, and stay current on the latest standards and best practices in mechanical inspection.

What You’ll Do

• Inspect mechanical components and assemblies for compliance with drawings, specifications, and standards.
• Use calipers, micrometers, gauges, and other tools to inspect precision parts and verify dimensions/tolerances.
• Accurately document inspection results and maintain thorough records.
• Collaborate with engineering and production to address quality issues and drive corrective actions.
• Participate in continuous improvement to enhance inspection methods and throughput.
• Assist with training and mentoring junior inspectors as needed.
• Stay current with industry standards and best practices related to mechanical inspection.

What You Bring

• High school diploma or equivalent; a technical degree or certification in mechanical inspection is a plus.
• Good understanding of GD&T.
• Proven experience in mechanical inspection or a closely related field.
• Strong ability to read mechanical drawings and apply quality standards.
• Proficient with inspection tools (calipers, micrometers, gauges, and related equipment).
• Exceptional attention to detail and solid problem-solving skills.
• Comfort working independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced environment.
• Clear written and verbal communication.
