FORT ERIE
* * Position Summary
* The Material Testing and Calibration Technician is responsible for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the equipment and instruments. This role involves the calibration of on-site major equipment, precise measurement instrument calibration management, and completing material testing of both in process and purchased materials to Airbus standards and specifications. The ideal candidate will be a
detail-oriented professional with a strong technical background and a commitment to maintaining the highest standards of quality and safety.

* Primary Position Responsibilities
* * 1. Site Equipment Calibration
* This involves controlling and executing the calibration of large, fixed equipment critical to the manufacturing process. The goal is to ensure these machines operate within specified tolerances for quality and safety. Perform scheduled and unscheduled calibrations on a variety of major on-site equipment, including but not limited to, autoclaves, ovens, presses, and climate chambers, ensuring compliance with internal standards and industry regulations.

• Annual Temperature Uniformity Testing;

• Annual Luminosity Testing;

• Annual Airflow Testing;

• Biweekly SAT testing;

• Biannual SAT testing;

• Bi Annual Calibration efforts;

• Equipment calibration.

• Identify, troubleshoot, and report equipment non-conformities or failures to ensure equipment availability.

• Document and maintain detailed calibration and inspection records in accordance with Quality Management System (QMS) procedures.

* 2. Instrument Calibration Management
* This focuses on the precise and traceable calibration of portable and benchtop measurement tools used
throughout the facility.
The following tasks are applicable:

* This involves performing specific tests to verify the properties of raw materials before they are used in
production which are special process activities.
The following tasks are applicable:

• Conducting DSC, Floating Peel, ILSS, Drum Peel, Lap Shear, Expansion Rate and Compression
tests on incoming Inspection material testing. Generating test reports and releasing material or
issuing NC’s for non conforming products.

• Preparing samples for testing which could include layup and trimming

• Conduct re-life tests on DSC, ILSS, Drum Peel and Compression to support Production needs.

• Conduct In Process Floating Peel Tests on In process coupons to support Manufacturing.

• Manage the Lab Press, Process changes to MET-095 requirements and calibration requirements
to develop coupons for Material testing.

• Maintain currency for testing by completing PTP cross tests with external labs.

* 4. Quality inspection
* This is a checkpoint to ensure that purchased parts meet the required specifications before they enter the
manufacturing flow.

• Conduct thorough incoming or In process inspections on raw materials and components, verifying
certifications of conformance and ensuring compliance with engineering specifications and purchase order
requirements.

• Perform dimensional and visual inspections on both composite and metallic parts using a variety of
metrology tools to ensure they meet design and quality specifications.

• Collaborate with engineering, production, and other quality teams to resolve quality issues…
