Metrology Specialist at Radiant Industries · LumiJobs

Responsibilities

We are looking for a Metrology Specialist to help build and advance Radiant’s precision measurement and verification capabilities as we scale advanced reactor manufacturing. You will serve as a technical expert in dimensional metrology, precision inspection, and measurement technologies, ensuring that critical components and assemblies can be accurately and reliably verified against engineering requirements.
This is a hands-on technical role that goes beyond operating inspection equipment. You will perform complex dimensional inspections, develop measurement strategies, program and operate Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs), and partner closely with Engineering, Manufacturing, and Quality to solve challenging measurement problems. You will help translate complex designs, tolerances, and functional requirements into practical, repeatable verification methods.
Serve as Radiant’s metrology subject matter expert by providing technical guidance on precision measurement, dimensional inspection, measurement uncertainty, and verification methodologies.
Perform complex dimensional inspections using CMMs, precision measurement instruments, and other inspection technologies to verify components and assemblies against engineering specifications.
Develop and optimize CMM programs including measurement routines, inspection setups, fixturing strategies, and reporting methods to improve accuracy, repeatability, and inspection efficiency.
Build advanced measurement and verification capabilities by evaluating, selecting, qualifying, and implementing new metrology equipment, technologies, and inspection methods.
Develop inspection strategies in collaboration with Engineering and Quality to ensure critical dimensions, geometric tolerances, and product characteristics can be effectively verified.
Apply GD&T and dimensional metrology principles to interpret engineering drawings, identify measurement challenges, and establish appropriate verification approaches.
Support design for inspectability by partnering with Design and Manufacturing Engineering early in development to ensure dimensional requirements are measurable, practical, and achievable.
Establish and improve metrology processes including measurement procedures, inspection methodologies, equipment verification, measurement system analysis, and standardized reporting.
Advance inspection technology and automation by identifying opportunities to improve measurement throughput, integrate digital inspection tools, and reduce manual inspection effort.
Support measurement equipment management including calibration requirements, equipment qualification, maintenance, and traceability to recognized measurement standards.

Qualification

Understanding of measurement accuracyStrong attention to detailKnowledge of ISO/IEC 17025

Required

3–7 years of relevant experience in dimensional metrology, precision inspection, manufacturing quality, or a related technical environment.
Hands-on experience programming and operating CMMs, including developing measurement routines and evaluating inspection results.
Strong understanding of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), including ASME Y14.5 principles and applications.
Experience interpreting complex engineering drawings, CAD models, dimensional tolerances, and technical specifications.
Proficiency with precision measurement tools such as micrometers, calipers, height gauges, bore gauges, and other dimensional inspection instruments.
Understanding of measurement accuracy, repeatability, reproducibility, measurement uncertainty, and calibration principles.
Ability to develop effective measurement and inspection approaches for complex geometries, tight tolerances, and challenging part configurations.
Strong technical problem-solving skills with the ability to investigate dimensional discrepancies and recommend practical solutions.
Ability to work independently while collaborating effectively with Design Engineering, Manufacturing, and Quality teams.
Strong attention to detail, technical documentation skills, and commitment to producing accurate, defensible inspection results.

Preferred

Experience with CMM programming software such as PC-DMIS, ZEISS CALYPSO, PolyWorks, or equivalent platforms
Experience with advanced measurement technologies such as laser trackers, portable measurement arms, optical measurement systems, structured-light scanning, or 3D scanning technologies
Experience developing or implementing new metrology capabilities, including equipment selection, qualification, commissioning, and process development
Familiarity with model-based definition (MBD), digital inspection planning, CAD-based measurement, or automated inspection workflows
Experience with measurement system analysis (MSA), Gage R&R, uncertainty analysis, or correlation studies between measurement methods
Knowledge of ISO/IEC 17025, ANSI/NCSL Z540, or other calibration and measurement standards
Experience designing inspection fixtures, measurement setups, or specialized tooling for complex components and assemblies
Familiarity with metrology data analysis, statistical methods, inspection software, or integrating measurement results into manufacturing and Quality systems
