About the Job

Requirements

A minimum of 2 years of experience in a technical metrology role, or equivalent experience.
Experience creating or modifying CM4D translators and building reports and routines in CM4D.
Hands-on experience with PolyWorks.
Experience interpreting GD&T drawings to ASME Y14.5 or ISO 1101, including datum reference frames, profile, position, and material condition modifiers.
Understanding of alignment strategies, including 3-2-1, RPS and net, best-fit, and local alignments, and how alignment choice affects data meaning.
Working knowledge of Statistical Process Control (SPC), including Cp, Cpk, and percent in-tolerance, and Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility (GR&R) studies.
Ability to perform physically demanding work for extended periods, up to 12 hours a day.
Ability to stand and walk for extended periods, including over varied and uneven terrain.
Ability to frequently and repetitively lift, push, and carry up to 35 pounds, including carrying 20 pounds up and down stairs.
Ability to stoop, bend, reach, squat, kneel, crouch, and twist for extended periods.
Ability to climb and maintain balance on ladders, scaffolding, or other high structures.
Ability to identify issues in a work process and receive safety signals using sight, touch, and hearing.
Ability to wear required personal protective equipment, including a hard hat, safety glasses, safety shoes, and reflective vest, and adhere to prescribed safety rules and guidelines.

Responsibilities

Create, modify, and test CM4D translators for every on-site measurement source, including coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), laser radar, structured light scanners, inline robot-mounted sensors, and vision gap and flush systems.
Configure output from PolyWorks, PC-DMIS, Zeiss Inspect, and similar packages so feature naming, alignment, nominals, and tolerances import into CM4D correctly without manual rework.
Create, revise, and retire CM4D routines, and maintain the filters, nominals, and tolerances used by downstream reports, dashboards, and API queries.
Reconcile CM4D tolerances against released engineering drawings, and audit incoming data for sensor drift, alignment shifts, and mixed populations before reporting it as process change.
Build and maintain CM4D report templates, scheduled jobs, and automated reporting through the CM4D API.
Collaborate with Engineering groups on measurement strategy and fixture design, and act as the site technical contact for CM4D.

Desired Qualifications

Additional experience with Zeiss Inspect, PC-DMIS, or Metrolog X4 is highly preferred.
Experience with SQL, Python, or equivalent scripting for data validation is an asset.
Experience with Nikon laser radar, Perceptron, Hexagon, or Eines systems is an asset.
Experience in BIW and closures is an asset.

Job Description

<div class="MSWordContent"><p>The Metrology Specialist, CM4D Systems will work as the technical owner of dimensional data within the dimensional engineering group. The successful candidate will build and maintain the CM4D translators that bring measurement data in from every device on site, create and manage the routines that data lands in, and configure output from PolyWorks and other metrology software so that it imports cleanly and completely. There may be occasional work on the production floor supporting measurement systems and verifying data against the parts it came from. It is fundamental that the candidate has prior experience interpreting GD&T part drawings, hands-on experience with PolyWorks, and the ability to create and modify CM4D translators rather than only consume the reports they produce. </div>

About the Company

Tesla

Makes electric cars, robotaxis and grid batteries

Tesla makes electric cars and batteries that store power for homes and utilities, and it develops self-driving software and humanoid robots. In 2023, its Model Y became the first electric vehicle to rank as the world's best-selling car. Buyers order the Model 3 sedan, Model Y SUV, or Cybertruck pickup directly from Tesla instead of through dealers, and they charge on its Supercharger fast-charging network. It also sells Megapack and Powerwall batteries, runs a robotaxi service, and charges drivers a monthly fee for self-driving software that still needs their supervision. Tesla was founded in 2003, with Elon Musk as its lead early investor and a recognized co-founder, and it is based in Austin, Texas.
