We are looking for a Metrology Specialist to join our rapidly growing team in Santa Ana, CA working in a cutting-edge production environment to advance the state-of-the-possible in maritime manufacturing.

In this role, you will blend hands-on inspection with data-driven engineering analysis.

Responsibilities:

- Develop, program, and execute inspection routines for CMMs using software like PC-DMIS or Polyworks.

- Analyze inspection data to perform root cause analysis, support statistical process control (SPC) initiatives, and conduct capability studies.

- Collaborate with Design and Manufacturing Engineers to provide Design for Manufacturability/Inspectability (DFM/DFI) feedback on new products.

- Interpret complex engineering drawings and 3D CAD models to create comprehensive inspection plans that effectively validate GD&T requirements.

- Generate clear and concise inspection reports and present findings to cross-functional teams to drive corrective actions.

- Support the development and documentation of standard operating procedures for metrology processes within our AS9100 Quality Management System.

- Assist in maintaining metrology equipment calibration and contribute to the selection of new measurement technology.

Requirements:

- 4+ years of experience in a manufacturing, quality, or metrology engineering role.

- Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, a related engineering field, or equivalent experience.

- Strong proficiency in interpreting and applying Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) per the ASME Y14.5 standard.

- Hands-on experience with at least one major metrology software platform (PC-DMIS or Polyworks), with a strong aptitude to become proficient in others.

- Experience working in a manufacturing environment governed by a formal Quality Management System (e.g., AS9100, ISO 9001).

- Ability to read and interpret complex mechanical drawings and 3D CAD models.

- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications:

- Active Secret or Top Secret security clearance.

- Direct programming experience with multiple metrology platforms (e.g., proficiency in both PC-DMIS and Spatial Analyzer).

- Hands-on experience with both fixed CMMs and portable metrology equipment (laser trackers, portable arms).

- Experience creating First Article Inspection Reports (FAIRs) to the AS9102 standard.

- Familiarity with CAD software (such as NX or SolidWorks) for interrogating models.

Benefits:

- Highly competitive equity grants
