  • Support part cleaning, preparation, and organization for build and inspection
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and inspection-ready workspace
Cross-Functional & General Support:
  • Work side-by-side with Engine Build Technicians during engine assembly and teardown
  • Communicate effectively with teammates and engineers to resolve technical challenges
  • Participate in continuous improvement of inspection processes and test readiness
  • Assist with IT, procurement, and shop maintenance tasks as needed in a dynamic R&D environment
Qualifications:
  • Experience in a metrology, quality control, or precision inspection role
  • Proficiency with a wide range of measurement tools and inspection techniques
  • Strong understanding of GD&T and the ability to interpret engineering drawings
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and solve problems
  • Exceptional attention to detail and documentation accuracy
Preferred:
  • Background in engine assembly, precision machining, or hands-on mechanical systems
  • Experience with 3D scanning technologies and digital inspection tools
  • Familiarity with CAD software and metrology reporting systems
Benefits:
  • Flexible PTO to encourage work-life balance and personal well-being
  • Comprehensive healthcare coverage: medical, dental, and vision plans
  • Equity participation: RSUs for all permanent employees
  • 401(k) with match: 100% up to 3%, plus 50% match for 3–5% range
  • Growth opportunities: Mentorship, training, and leadership development
