Quality Control Inspector, Final Operations Night Shift Aerospace

Inspectors are key personnel in the Accurus Quality Department and their duties are integral to our overall quality management system and customer satisfaction. These employees perform inspections on newly received goods and work-in-process and are responsible for final inspections of machined aerospace parts and assemblies to ensure compliance with engineering requirements and work instructions. Inspectors are required to document specific information regarding approvals and non-conforming parts and may be involved in problem-solving to identify rework requirements. Additionally inspectors may provide quality and/or manufacturing process training for manufacturing inspectors generally use a Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) to probe movement along multiple axes but may use traditional precision measurement tools (mics calipers gauges etc.) as FunctionsTo accomplish this job an individual must be able to perform each essential function satisfactorily. Reasonable accommodations may be made to help enable qualified individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.
