- Hands‑on metrology expertise (mics, calipers, height gages, pin gages, etc.)
- CMM programming and operation experience (CALYPSO / ZEISS)
- Familiarity with AS9102 First Article processes
- Deep experience with CAPA, RCCA, and audit management
- Bonus points for ASQ certifications, FDA/ISO 13485 exposure, FAA PMA, Lean or Six Sigma
