CMM Programmer - TEMP

POSITION SUMMARY

The CMM Programmer/Operator is responsible for programming, operating, and maintaining Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) to verify that manufactured parts and assemblies conform to engineering drawings, specifications, and customer requirements. This role has a primary focus on CMM programming and dimensional inspection, including First Article Inspection (FAI) reports prepared for customer review and approval. The CMM Programmer/Operator reports directly to the Quality Manager and will support additional quality assurance duties as business needs require, including in-process and final inspection, calibration support, and quality documentation.

• Develop, write, and optimize CMM inspection programs (e.g., QxSoft CMM Manager, Poly Works or equivalent software) from engineering drawings, 3D models (CAD), and GD&T specifications.
• Set up and operate CMM equipment to perform dimensional inspection of incoming, in-process, and finished parts.
• Perform First Article Inspections (FAI) in accordance with AS9102 or customer-specified requirements, and compile complete, accurate FAI reports for submission to customers for approval.
• Interpret complex engineering drawings, blueprints, and Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) to determine appropriate inspection methods and datums.
• Select, calibrate, and use precision measuring instruments (micrometers, calipers, height gauges, optical comparators, surface plates, etc.) to support and verify CMM results.
• Analyze inspection data and generate clear, accurate inspection reports, non-conformance reports (NCRs), and supporting quality documentation.
• Identify and document non-conforming material and support root cause analysis and corrective action activities.
• Maintain, troubleshoot, and coordinate calibration and preventive maintenance of CMM equipment and related gauging.
• Archive and maintain CMM programs, inspection records, and FAI documentation in accordance with company and customer quality system requirements.
• Support internal and external quality audits (e.g., AS9100, ISO 9001, customer audits) by providing inspection data, programs, and records as requested.
• Collaborate with engineering, manufacturing, and quality personnel to resolve dimensional discrepancies and improve part conformance.
• Assist with additional quality department duties as assigned by the Quality Manager, which may include in-process inspection, receiving inspection, SPC data collection, gauge calibration, and quality system documentation.
• Maintain a clean, safe, and organized inspection work area and follow all safety and quality procedures.
• All other duties as assigned.
