We are looking for a Mechanical Inspector to join our team and ensure that all mechanical systems, components, and assemblies meet the required standards and specifications. As a Mechanical Inspector, you will be responsible for conducting thorough inspections, tests, and measurements on a variety of mechanical equipment and parts, both during and after production. Your keen attention to detail and strong understanding of mechanical engineering principles will be essential in identifying defects, non-conformities, and potential safety hazards.
In this role, you will collaborate closely with engineers, production teams, and quality assurance personnel to maintain high-quality standards throughout the manufacturing process. You will review technical drawings, blueprints, and specifications to understand the requirements for each project. Using a range of inspection tools and equipment, such as calipers, micrometers, gauges, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM), you will verify dimensions, tolerances, and material properties.
The Mechanical Inspector will document inspection results, prepare detailed reports, and communicate findings to relevant stakeholders. You will also recommend corrective actions and participate in root cause analysis to prevent recurring issues. Adherence to safety regulations and company policies is paramount, as is maintaining accurate records for compliance and traceability.
To succeed in this position, you should have a strong background in mechanical inspection, quality control, or a related field. Familiarity with industry standards such as ISO 9001, ASME, or API is highly desirable. Excellent problem-solving skills, effective communication, and the ability to work independently or as part of a team are crucial. If you are passionate about quality and have a meticulous approach to your work, we encourage you to apply for this rewarding opportunity.
