The Tool & Gauge Quality Technician plays a critical role in supporting the quality function within Momentive Technologies. The role is responsible for the calibration, maintenance, repair, and lifecycle management of approximately 1,400 precision measurement devices, including micrometers, calipers, CMMs, microscopes, pyrometers, analytical balances, and industrial scales. This role ensures that all measurement equipment used in production, quality control, and R&D meets required accuracy, reliability, and compliance standards.

Working closely with Quality Engineers, Manufacturing, and R&D teams, the technician manages the full lifecycle of measurement devices – including calibration, verification, troubleshooting, repair coordination, and documentation. They maintain the integrity of the metrology system by scheduling and performing routine calibrations, conducting capability studies (such as G&R), and ensuring proper storage, handling, and traceability of gauges.

• Calibration & Maintenance:
  Perform routine and advanced calibration of dimensional, mechanical, electrical, and analytical measurement tools. Maintain and troubleshoot equipment. Document calibration results, adjustments, and out-of-tolerance conditions in accordance with internal procedures and external standards.
• Equipment Management:
  Manage the full lifecycle of gauges and instruments, including inventory control, scheduling, labeling, and traceability. Maintain calibration records to support ISO 9001, AS9100, or other regulatory requirements. Coordinate with external calibration labs when outsourcing is required. Evaluate new measurement equipment.
• Quality & Compliance:
  Ensure all measurement devices meet required accuracy and traceability to NIST or equivalent standards. Support internal and external audits by providing documentation and technical explanations. Investigate measurement discrepancies and assist with root-cause analysis.
• Technical Support:
  Provide technical support for measurement issues on the production floor. Assist engineering and quality teams with measurement method development and capability studies.
