3D Scanning & Metrology Technician
Description

  

What You’ll Actually Do

This isn’t a clipboard role. This is where digital meets physical and the numbers decide who’s right.

  • Operate and maintain 3D scanning equipment to capture high-accuracy dimensional data 
  • Turn raw scans into clean, usable dimensional reports (the kind customers and auditors don’t argue with) 
  • Own the Gage Calibration & Control Program — tracking, scheduling, and making sure nothing drifts into “questionable” territory 
  • Support the Quality Lab when things get busy or weird (it happens) 
  • Assist with 3rd-party calibration services and help outside auditors find exactly what they’re looking for… fast 
  • Keep records tight, organized, and audit-ready at all times 


Requirements

  

What You Need to Bring

  • Experience with 3D scanning or metrology equipment (structured light, laser scanning, CMM, etc.) 
  • Solid understanding of dimensional inspection & reporting 
  • Familiarity with gage control / calibration systems 
  • Ability to read blueprints & GD&T without guessing 
  • Strong attention to detail — you notice the .002" that others miss 
  • Basic math, writing, and computer skills (nothing fancy, just accurate and consistent)      

Bonus Points

  • Experience in a foundry or machining environment 
  • Exposure to customer audits or certification processes 
  • Understanding of how tooling wear shows up in dimensional data 

  

Why This Role Matters

You’re the bridge between what we think we made and what we actually made.
Production moves fast. You make sure it moves right.

When something drifts, you catch it early.
When something’s off, you prove it with data.
When an auditor shows up, you’re the calm in the storm.

The Environment

  • Real manufacturing. Iron, machining, heat, grit. 
  • A Quality team that actually influences decisions 
  • People who respect data more than opinions 

Bottom Line

If you like turning complex geometry into clear answers…
If you trust numbers more than gut feel…
If you’d rather prove it than debate it…

This role will fit.
