CMM Quality Inspectors
Overview
We're hiring CMM Quality Inspectors for our aerospace precision machining shop.
You'll run existing CMM programs and inspect by hand for first article, in-process, and final inspection on complex, tight-tolerance parts bound for aerospace, defense, semiconductor, and medical customers. Inspection runs on Brown & Sharpe (PC-DMIS) and Aberlink Axiom CMMs, backed by micrometers, calipers, and other hand tools.
We're an engineering-driven precision manufacturer in San Jose. You'll sit in the Quality department and work directly with machinists, programmers, and engineers when dimensions come back out of spec. We're hiring on both day and night shift.
