What is a remote CMM programmer?

A Remote CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) Programmer is responsible for creating, modifying, and troubleshooting CMM inspection programs to ensure precision measurements of manufactured parts. They typically work off-site, using software to develop and validate measurement routines based on engineering drawings and CAD models. Remote CMM Programmers collaborate with quality and engineering teams to optimize inspection processes and ensure compliance with industry standards. Strong knowledge of GD&T, metrology principles, and CMM software (such as PC-DMIS or Calypso) is essential for success in this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote CMM programmer?

To excel as a Remote CMM Programmer, you need a solid background in metrology, GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing), and 3D CAD interpretation, typically supported by experience in precision manufacturing or quality assurance. Proficiency with coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), software such as PC-DMIS or Calypso, and familiarity with ISO or AS9100 quality standards are essential. Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, remote communication skills, and self-motivation set standout candidates apart. These abilities are crucial for ensuring accurate measurements, effective troubleshooting, and seamless collaboration with engineering teams in a remote work environment.

What are some common challenges faced by remote CMM programmers, and how can they overcome them?

Remote CMM Programmers often encounter challenges related to communication and troubleshooting issues without onsite access to equipment or parts. To overcome these, successful professionals utilize detailed documentation, collaborate effectively with on-site technicians or engineers via video calls or shared CAD models, and proactively clarify measurement requirements. Staying organized and leveraging remote-access software tools help minimize errors and streamline workflows. With a strong commitment to communication and continuous learning, remote programmers can deliver reliable results and maintain high quality even from a distance.

Accenture Federal Services is seeking a Design Quality Engineer for an up-conversion team on a modernization program for a major aerospace & defense manufacturer. This role is the quality gate across both disciplines, reviewing each converted model, mechanical (Creo) and electrical or harness (Zuken E3), against its source drawing, confirming it is complete and semantically equivalent, and producing the validation and deviation report that supports release into the client's PLM system. 

The work: 

  • Run each model through the program's structured validation checks. On the mechanical side that covers areas such as model integrity and automated model-check results, tolerancing, notes and markings, annotations and their semantic references, section views, completeness, the 3D PDF, drawing linkage, and release readiness.
  • On the electrical side, check the wiring and harness definitions: connectors, connectivity and signals, splices and shields, device-tree structure and part-number attribution, and BOM match.
  • Compare each model against its source 2D drawing or equivalent, for example with overlays, and confirm the dimensions, tolerances, and content agree.
  • Confirm CAD BOM to PLM EBOM alignment, correct revisions and attributes, the governing part-to-CAD link, and that visualizations and derivative files are current for release.
  • Write up the validation and deviation report on the program's standard template, capturing what was used to build the model, the overlays, the analyses, and any deviations with their corrective actions.
  • Coordinate the report review with the client's design, manufacturing, and quality leads, and confirm that any form, fit, or function deviations are resolved. 

Here's what you need: 

  • 5+ years in CAD quality or model checking, MBD validation, or design-quality engineering.
  • Strong GD&T and model-based inspection skills (ASME Y14.5 and Y14.41).
  • Ability to read and validate Creo MBD models and/or Zuken E3.series wiring and harness definitions against source drawings. Depth in one discipline with working familiarity in the other is acceptable; cross-training is provided.
  • Familiarity with PLM BOM structure, revisions, and configuration control, such as Windchill.
  • Precise, checklist-driven documentation habits. 
  • U.S. Citizenship is required. 
  • Will consider remote candidates; Hybrid or local to San Antonio strongly desired.

Bonus points if you have: 

  • CMM or metrology experience, including QIF-to-CMM inspection data.
  • Tools such as Capvidia MBDConnect and semantic-reference checking.
  • Aerospace & defense quality, first-article inspection (FAI), or source-inspection background.
  • Drawing-to-model overlay validation and deviation-report authoring.
  • DoD Technical Data Package (TDP) familiarity.
