Role Title: Dimensional Metrology Quality Engineer

Role Type: Contractor

Location: Remote

micro1 is engaging Dimensional Metrology Quality Engineers to contribute to a customer's project focused on advanced inspection and measurement solutions. In this role, you'll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input. No prior experience in AI is required — your domain knowledge is what matters. This opportunity involves evaluating and producing first-article inspection deliverables using 3D scanning and advanced metrology software, ensuring accuracy in scan-to-CAD comparisons, datum setups, and profile and position callouts. Your insight will help determine whether deviations arise from true part discrepancies or fixturing and alignment artefacts, supporting critical sign-off decisions on FAI reports.

Scope of Work

  • Review and validate first-article inspection (FAI) reports derived from 3D scan data.
  • Conduct detailed scan-to-CAD comparisons, analyzing measurement deviations and their sources.
  • Set up, interpret, and document datum structures, profiles, and position callouts as per industry standards.
  • Utilize CMM measurement techniques and perform uncertainty analysis for dimensional integrity.
  • Differentiate between actual part deviations and artefacts caused by fixturing or alignment issues.
  • Deliver clear, comprehensive written and verbal feedback to support decision-making on FAI sign-off.
  • Contribute nuanced, high-quality metrology input to inform and enhance AI system development.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Expertise in Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing (GD&T) and FAI processes within manufacturing or quality environments.
  • Proficiency with 3D scanning devices and inspection software (e.g., PolyWorks, GOM Inspect, or similar).
  • Strong background in CMM measurement techniques and uncertainty analysis.
  • Proven ability to interpret engineering drawings, CAD models, and technical specifications.
  • Experience producing or approving FAI reports backed by practical metrology knowledge.
  • Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with a keen attention to explanatory detail.
  • Analytical mindset for discerning true quality issues versus artefacts introduced by measurement setup.
Applying via micro1: micro1 screens with an AI interview ("Zara") and pays weekly once placed. Free to apply; most roles are long-running contracts.
