Job Summary:

As a Metrology Engineer (Dimensional Engineer), you will be responsible for overseeing the precision, accuracy, and quality control of dimensional specifications for automotive parts. You will apply engineering principles to ensure that parts meet the required design tolerances and fitment standards throughout the manufacturing process. Strong problem-solving abilities, proficiency in 3D CAD software, and a deep understanding on geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is essential.

Job Responsibilities:

• Perform dimensional analysis of automotive parts and assemblies using CMMs, laser scanners, optical systems, and other metrology equipment.
• Perform statistical tolerance analyses, using RSS, Monte Carlo & 3D variation software like Cetol 6 sigma.
• Program and operate CMMs (PC-DMIS) to inspect injection-molded components and assemblies.
• Develop and apply GD&T strategies, datum schemes, and tolerance analyses to support product functionality and manufacturability.
• Conduct capability studies, statistical analyses, and data validation to evaluate dimensional performance and process stability.
• Support design reviews by assessing part interfaces, mating conditions, and dimensional risks.
• Lead check fixture development, including RFQs, design reviews, and build approvals.
• Investigate and resolve dimensional and functional concerns such as fit, flush and gap, alignment, and noise issues.
• Collaborate with design, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, and customers to drive data-based problem solving and continuous improvement.
• Perform root cause analysis and implement corrective actions to reduce variation and improve product quality.
• Review supplier dimensional data and ensure compliance with quality, inspection, and calibration requirements.
• Maintain dimensional documentation, prepare technical reports, and support audits and regulatory compliance activities.
• Support global dimensional engineering initiatives, standards development, and knowledge sharing across teams.

Job Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years of experience in metrology, dimensional engineering, and gage/fixture engineering within a manufacturing environment.
• Expert knowledge of GD&T (ASME Y14.5), datum strategy development, and engineering drawing/3D model interpretation.
• Proficiency in CMM programming and operation (PC-DMIS) and dimensional measurement planning.
• Strong understanding of metrology principles, measurement system analysis (MSA), SPC, capability studies, and statistical data analysis using tools such as Minitab, Excel, and DCS/QDM.
• Experience with advanced measurement technologies including CMMs, laser scanners, optical measurement systems, and related metrology equipment.
• Working knowledge of injection molding processes, dimensional variation, and tolerance management.
• Experience supporting product launches, PPAP activities, supplier quality, and dimensional validation from development through production.
• Familiarity with automotive quality standards and methodologies, including IATF 16949, ISO 9001, FMEA, and root cause analysis.
• Proficiency with CAD software (e.g., CATIA, SolidWorks, AutoCAD) for design review and dimensional evaluation.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
• Experience with data automation tools (Python, VBA, SQL), Six Sigma, Lean Manufacturing, or metrology certifications is considered an asset.
