We are currently looking for a Dimensional Metrology & Analysis Engineer to join our dynamic, fast-paced, and growing team. The Dimensional Metrology & Analysis Engineer is responsible for supporting the construction of large-scale welded metal structures. This role joins the existing Accuracy Control team and is focused on leveraging advanced metrology tools, such as Spatial Analyzer (SA) and laser
tracker systems, to validate measurement accuracy, interpret Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) datasets, and mitigate fabrication risks through documentation and statistical analysis. The position requires a strong understanding of fabrication processes, procedural sequences, and measurement methodologies. The Engineer is responsible for ensuring adherence to established processes and standards to maintain consistency, repeatability, and compliance throughout all build stages.
The ideal candidate will validate SA model fit, interpret deviations, and use structured data to identify root causes and recommend corrective actions. This position bridges the gap between raw measurement data and strategic engineering decisions-supporting both in-process production and continuous improvement initiatives.
What You Will Be Doing
Review and validate 3D measurement models created in Spatial Analyzer for fit accuracy, coordinate system logic, and reference relationships
Analyze GD&T-driven datasets comparing actual measurements to drawing specifications, identifying meaningful deviations across evolving build stages
Apply and interpret statistical analysis models to detect trends in measurement data, including frequency, severity, and progression patterns across subassemblies
Translate data trends into practical recommendations for corrective action, including rework guidance, remeasurement, or procedural adjustments
Monitor the applicability and consistency of fabrication sequence procedures, confirming alignment with measurement intent and recommending updates where necessary
Document findings and notes regarding measurement data, and track trade disposition process
Construct automated Excel/VBA tools to manage progression tracking, deviation scoring, and key performance indicators
Prepare and distribute weekly reports summarizing dimensional risk areas, root cause investigations, and recommendations
Serve as the liaison between measurement technicians, planning engineers, shop floor teams, and senior leadership
Additional duties as assigned
Your Background
High School Diploma or Similar + 2-years' experience required
B.S. in Mechanical or Industrial Engineering and/or previous metrology experience; background in mathematics, data analytics, or fabrication engineering preferred
