CMM Technician III
Core
Operate and program coordinate measuring machines (CMM) to verify micron-class accuracy of complex, high-precision hardware and tooling built in-house for spaceflight systems.
Role type
Senior IC CMM Technician (Metrology)
Builds
Inspection data and measurement routines that clear hardware for downstream production and flight.
Domain
Aerospace manufacturing / Precision Metrology
Deliverable
production ML models | product features | dashboards & analysis | research | client delivery | infrastructure | physical/clinical work
Required skills
