Description

Balanced Body is seeking a highly skilled Quality Control Machinist to join our team in a pivotal lead role. This isn't just a "check-the-box" inspection job—we need a process-oriented technical expert who can bridge the gap between engineering and production.

You will be the final line of defense for quality, utilizing your expertise in manual machining and advanced metrology to ensure every part meets our rigorous standards. This is a dynamic role for a self-directed professional who thrives in a fluid environment and is eager to grow within our QA/QC and Machining departments.

  • Technical Inspection: Conduct comprehensive quality inspections and audits of incoming materials and finished parts.
  • Blueprint & Tolerance Analysis: Read and interpret complex engineering drawings and blueprints to verify dimensional accuracy and part integrity.
  • Metrology Mastery: Utilize advanced measuring instruments, including calipers, micrometers, and gages, to determine critical dimensional data.
  • Data Integrity: Maintain accurate parts and supply inventories within our MRP system, reporting and documenting all non-conforming materials.
  • Leadership & Safety: Serve as a technical lead, ensuring safety protocols (including lock-out tag-out) are strictly followed while prioritizing tasks in a fast-paced environment.

Requirements

Who You Are (Requirements)

  • Experienced Inspector: Minimum of three (3) year of professional experience dedicated to Quality Inspection in a manufacturing setting.
  • Skilled Machinist: Minimum of three (3) year of hands-on experience working in a Machine Shop environment.
  • Technically Proficient: Advanced math skills and the ability to perform complex tolerance analysis.
  • Detail-Obsessed: Exceptional attention to detail and a commitment to consistency in following established processes.
  • Adaptable Leader: A "can-do" attitude with the ability to shift priorities quickly and keep up with a high-velocity production schedule.
  • Safety-First Mindset: Solid knowledge of proper lock-out tag-out procedures.
  • Certified: Forklift certification is a strong plus.

Work Schedule

This position is onsite and full-time, Monday to Friday.
