What is GD&T?

A GD&T job typically involves applying Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) standards to engineering drawings and manufacturing processes. Professionals in this role ensure that product designs meet functional requirements and can be consistently manufactured within specified tolerances. They interpret technical drawings, inspect parts for compliance, and collaborate with engineering and quality teams to improve precision and efficiency. GD&T jobs are common in industries like aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing, where precise measurements are critical.

What are the typical daily responsibilities of someone specializing in GD&T within a manufacturing or engineering team?

Professionals specializing in GD&T are typically responsible for interpreting engineering drawings, defining appropriate tolerances, and reviewing designs to ensure manufacturability and compliance with standards. They often collaborate closely with design engineers, machinists, and quality inspectors to resolve dimensional issues and optimize production processes. Daily tasks may include creating and updating technical documentation, conducting tolerance stack-up analyses, and participating in design review meetings. This role plays a critical part in ensuring parts meet quality requirements and function as intended in the final product.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the GD&T position, and why are they important?

To excel in a GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) role, you need a solid background in mechanical engineering, manufacturing processes, and a thorough understanding of engineering drawings and standards. Familiarity with CAD software, metrology instruments, and certifications such as ASME Y14.5 are highly beneficial. Attention to detail, strong analytical thinking, and effective communication with cross-functional teams are key soft skills. These competencies ensure precise part fabrication, clear documentation, and efficient collaboration with design and manufacturing teams.

Job description

Job Description
Role Summary
The Manufacturing Engineer reports directly to the Engineering Manager and serves as the critical link between Engineering and Production teams. This role is responsible for translating customer requirements into manufacturable designs, developing the tooling and processes needed to produce high-complexity composite parts, and driving continuous improvement across the shop floor. This role also supports quality engineering functions such as doing dimensional inspection using CMM machines, creating inspection plans, interpreting GD&T, and doing root cause and corrective action activities.
Duties & Responsibilities
  • Work directly with customers and engineering teams to understand product requirements and translate them into practical manufacturing specifications
  • Design molds, trim fixtures, and assembly tooling for high-complexity composite part production
  • Create and maintain engineering drawings, work instructions, and process documentation to support shop floor execution
  • Evaluate production readiness for new products and support the introduction of new parts into the manufacturing workflow
  • Develop, document, and continuously improve lamination and machining processes in collaboration with production staff
  • Identify and resolve recurring manufacturing issues through structured root cause analysis and corrective action
  • Train and support production personnel on process requirements, drawing interpretation, and quality standards
  • Perform incoming customer drawing reviews and advise on appropriate tolerances and DFM best practices.
  • Develop and refine inspection methods, fixturing, and documentation to support part acceptance and quality verification
  • Evaluate new technologies, materials, and methods that could improve manufacturing capability or product quality
  • Support First Article Inspection processes and other quality engineering responsibilities
  • Perform other duties as assigned

Skills & Knowledge
  • Solid understanding of composite manufacturing processes, materials, and tooling
  • Proficiency in CAD/solid modeling for tooling and fixture design (SolidWorks preferred)
  • Ability to produce clear engineering drawings with proper GD&T callouts per ASME Y14.5 or equivalent
  • Strong working knowledge of GD&T and its practical application in a manufacturing environment
  • Experience writing work instructions, process documentation, and manufacturing procedures
  • Familiarity with root cause analysis and corrective action processes
  • Foundational knowledge of AS9100 and First Article Inspection; deeper expertise can be developed on the job
  • Hands-on, solutions-oriented mindset with strong attention to detail
  • Effective communicator with the ability to work across engineering, production, and customer-facing contexts
  • Proficient in Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint)

Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical field
  • 3+ years of experience in a manufacturing engineering role, preferably in composites or aerospace
  • 3+ years of CAD/solid modeling experience (SolidWorks preferred)
  • Strong understanding of GD&T; advanced on-the-job training available
  • Familiarity with composite materials, processes, and aerospace product requirements
  • Exposure to AS9100 environments preferred but not required
  • Self-starter with strong analytical and problem-solving skills who works well independently and within a team
  • Eligible candidates must be a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, lawfully admitted permanent resident, or otherwise eligible U.S. person
