Junior Quality Control Engineer Jobs in Raritan, NJ

Key Responsibilities

Advanced Dimensional Inspection (CMM/Metrology)

• Execute complex inspection plans usingCMM equipment(setup, part alignment, probing strategy verification) per site procedures.
• Perform advanced dimensional inspection using precision tools (height gage, micrometers, bore gages, indicators, pin/plug gages, surface finish gages as applicable).
• ApplyGD&Tto verify form, profile, position, runout, concentricity, datum schemes, and feature relationships.
• Validate inspection results against drawings, models, routers, and specifications; identify out-of-tolerance conditions and trends.
• Shift:1st shift 6am-2:30pm

Documentation, Traceability & Data Integrity

• Record results accurately in required systems/forms (FAI/in-process/final dimensional records as applicable).
• Maintain inspection status and part identification to prevent mix/escape (tagging, segregation, traceability).
• Ensure measurement data is complete, legible, and compliant with site quality processes.

Nonconformance Identification & Support

• Initiate and document non conformances; supportcontainmentandescape preventionactions.
• Provide objective evidence (CMM reports, manual gage data, photos as allowed) to support Engineering/Quality Engineering investigations.

Metrology Discipline & Capability

• Verifygage calibration statusbefore use; ensure proper care/handling and environmental requirements are met.
• Support measurement studies (e.g., gage R&R) and inspection method validations as assigned.
