Description
CMM QUALITY TECHNICIAN – 2nd SHIFT
Precision matters. So does your schedule.
Ushers Machine & Tool Co., Inc.
Aalberts Surface Technologies – Machining Solutions
If you speak GD&T fluently, trust data over guesses, and enjoy proving parts are right (or calling them out when they’re not), we should talk.
The Shift (a.k.a. the good one)
- Monday–Thursday: 12:00 PM – 8:30 PM
- Friday: 12:00 PM – 6:00 PM
- Full days, short Fridays. Your weekends start early — as they should.
But also.. 10% shift premium after training and paid lunch breaks!
What You’ll Actually Do
This isn’t babysitting gauges. You’ll be the CMM subject-matter expert on second shift.
- Program and operate CMMs to customer drawings, CAD models, and specs
- Interpret GD&T like it’s your native language
- Generate inspection reports and issue NCRs when parts miss the mark
- Perform incoming, in-process, and final inspections
- Maintain CMM calibration, programs, and accessories
- Use tools like borescopes, micrometers, calipers, optical comparators, gauge pins
- Recommend fixturing improvements to Engineering (your voice matters here)
- Train others on proper CMM operation and inspection practices
- Keep quality records tight, traceable, and audit-ready
In short: you protect the customer, the process, and the company’s reputation.
What We’re Looking For
- High School Diploma or equivalent (non-negotiable)
- 3–5 years CMM operation or programming in manufacturing
- 2+ years inspecting machined parts
