A well-established precision manufacturing company is seeking an experienced Quality Control Inspector Technician to support its inspection and quality operations. This full-time role is ideal for a detail-oriented professional with strong dimensional-inspection experience, blueprint-reading skills, and a background working with close-tolerance machined components.

The successful candidate will help ensure manufactured parts meet customer, engineering, and internal quality requirements through accurate inspection, documentation, and proper use of calibrated measurement equipment. Quality Control Inspectors typically evaluate machined or fabricated components for deviations from specifications using precision instruments and inspection methods.

• Perform detailed dimensional inspections of machined components against engineering drawings, specifications, and quality requirements.
• Complete first-article inspections and prepare associated inspection reports and documentation.
• Read, interpret, and apply blueprints, including geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T).
• Use and maintain a variety of precision measurement tools, including optical comparators, profilometers, thread gauges, height gauges, calipers, micrometers, and related inspection equipment.
• Verify that inspection tools and gauges are properly calibrated and suitable for use.
• Support gage repeatability and reproducibility studies, measurement-system analysis, and other quality activities as needed.
• Document inspection results accurately and communicate nonconforming conditions to appropriate production or quality personnel.
• Assist with in-process, final, and first-piece inspections to help ensure production conforms to requirements.
• Maintain organized inspection records and utilize Microsoft Word and Excel for reporting and documentation.
• Follow established safety, quality, attendance, and workplace procedures.
