The Scanbox Press Shop Technician performs dimensional inspection, CMM programming and measurement, fixture verification, data collection, and reporting for vehicle launch and series production at Lucid AMP-2. Reporting to the Dimensional Engineer, this role produces accurate, repeatable, and traceable measurement results and provides timely data to support dimensional investigations, corrective actions, and continuous improvement across vehicle manufacturing processes.

Key Responsibilities

• Conduct dimensional inspections of Body-in-White (BIW) components, including stamped parts, sub-assemblies, and assemblies, using measurement tools and equipment such as CMMs, laser trackers, inline measurement systems, calipers, micrometers, and other precision measurement equipment.
• Support the definition and implementation of corrective actions to reduce dimensional defects and improve process capability.
• Document inspection results and generate detailed measurement and dimensional Quality summaries.
• Collaborate with Engineering, Production, Quality, and other cross-functional teams to investigate and resolve dimensional issues.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives to enhance product Quality, measurement efficiency, and manufacturing processes.
• Create, modify, prove out, optimize, document, and maintain CMM programs using approved CAD models, engineering drawings, GD&T, and measurement plans, including software platforms such as PC-DMIS, Calypso, or PolyWorks.
• Operate CMM equipment using appropriate alignments, datum structures, probing strategies, feature definitions, and inspection methods.
• Validate new and revised CMM programs through feature checks, repeatability studies, correlation, and peer review.
• Interpret engineering drawings, GD&T, CAD models, special characteristics, measurement plans, and acceptance criteria.
• Prepare parts and fixtures for measurement, verify identification and traceability, and confirm environmental and equipment readiness.
• Measure stamped panels, body assemblies, closures, checking fixtures, tooling, master parts, and investigation samples.
• Compare measurement data against CAD models, engineering drawings, and specifications to identify and communicate dimensional deviations.
• Generate inspection reports, color maps, deviation summaries, trend charts, and measurement records and escalate abnormal results as required.
• Support Measurement System Analysis (MSA), Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility (Gage R&R), capability studies, correlation studies, fixture buyoff, tooling verification, and dimensional audits.
• Assist root cause investigations related to fit, gap, flush, alignment, geometry, sealing, and assembly variation.
• Maintain CMM program revision control, backups, report templates, probe qualifications, calibration status, and measurement traceability.
• Perform routine equipment checks and coordinate support for CMM, probe, software, or environmental abnormalities.
• Support trial builds, safe launch activities, engineering changes, containment inspections, remeasurement, and corrective-action verification.
• Ensure adherence to applicable safety and Quality standards during all inspection and measurement activities.
• Maintain traceability of measurement and inspection results for audits, technical reviews, and Quality investigations.

Skills

• Working knowledge of BIW manufacturing processes, tooling, fixtures, automation, joining processes, and Statistical Process Control (SPC).
• Experience with dimensional measurement equipment, including CMMs, laser trackers, inline measurement systems, calipers, micrometers, and other precision measurement tools.
• Knowledge of CMM programming and dimensional inspection software such as PC-DMIS, Calypso, or PolyWorks.
• Understanding of GD&T, datum structures, engineering drawings, CAD models, and dimensional measurement requirements.
• Familiarity with CAD tools, MES systems, and plant-floor digital manufacturing platforms.
• Understanding of Design for Manufacturing (DFM), Design for Assembly (DFA), and structured Quality tools such as Global 8D and 5 Why analysis.
• Ability to interpret dimensional data, identify deviations, and support structured problem-solving and corrective-action activities.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to maintain accuracy and craftsmanship in a fast-paced manufacturing environment.
• Ability to work independently and effectively within cross-functional teams.
• Ability to follow written and verbal instructions in English.
• Ability to stand for extended periods and frequently walk, sit, bend, push/pull, stoop, kneel, crouch, reach, or crawl.
• Ability to lift objects weighing up to 50 pounds.
• Availability to work overtime, off-shifts, or weekends as needed.

Minimum Qualifications

• Technical diploma or associate degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, Automotive, Metrology, Tooling, or a related discipline.
• 3+ years of experience in CMM programming, CMM measurement, dimensional inspection, metrology, or a related field.
• Demonstrated ability to create, validate, and execute CMM programs and interpret measurement results against GD&T requirements.
• Experience with common CMM programming and dimensional analysis platforms.
• Ability to work in a metrology and manufacturing-floor environment and support production and launch priorities.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience measuring stamped panels, body assemblies, closures, fixtures, tooling, or automotive components.
• Experience with CMM programming platforms such as PC-DMIS, Calypso, or PolyWorks.
• Experience with BIW manufacturing processes, dimensional inspection, tooling, fixtures, and automotive assembly.
• Experience supporting vehicle launches, safe launch activities, containment, or high-volume automotive production.
