  • Operate precision inspection equipment, including coordinate measuring machines (CMM), optical comparators, height gauges, and surface-finish instruments.
  • Plan and complete first article inspections (FAI) and prepare FAI reports in accordance with AS9102.
  • Initiate and document nonconformance reports (NCR), accurately characterize defects, and support material review board (MRB) activities.
  • Verify special-process and outside-processing certifications (for example, heat treat, plating, welding, and conformal coat) against applicable specifications.
  • Review inspection and measurement data for completeness and accuracy and ensure proper retention of quality records.
  • Provide work direction, training, and technical guidance to Quality Inspector I personnel.
  • Support internal audits, calibration control, FOD, and ESD (ANSI/ESD S20.20) program requirements.
