What You’ll Do

As a QC Inspector, you’ll perform dimensional and visual inspections of precision machined components using engineering drawings, specifications and applicable quality requirements. You’ll use a variety of precision measurement and inspection equipment to verify parts meet dimensional, geometric and workmanship requirements.

You’ll work closely with Machining, Quality and Engineering to identify and communicate issues, support root-cause investigation and keep quality parts moving through production.
