Senior Metrology Engineer (m/f/d)

PolyTALENT supports a strongly growing partner in Hamburg in filling this responsible position as Quality & Metrology Lead / Quality Engineer Metrology (m/f/d).

You will be responsible for complete metrology and quality assurance at the Hamburg site – from CMM programming and initial sample inspection to the analysis of deviations and audit preparation.

You will build the QA structures from scratch, define inspection and measurement strategies, and ensure that quality data flows directly back into production. A hands-on role with a high degree of personal responsibility: you will program, measure, evaluate, and release components yourself.

Benefits

• Key role in establishing quality assurance at a new production site

• High degree of creative freedom in metrology, inspection planning, and QA structures

• Work with modern CMM metrology and sophisticated precision components

• Direct influence on production quality, process stability, and release processes

• Close collaboration with machining, CAM programming, and engineering

• International corporate environment with locations in Germany, Great Britain, and the USA

• Option for equity participation in a growing corporate group

Tasks

• Programming, optimization, and maintenance of CMM inspection programs, e.g., in PC-DMIS or Zeiss Calypso

• Execution of initial sample inspections, incoming goods inspections, intermediate inspections, and final inspections

• Evaluation of complex components according to technical drawings, GD&T, and ISO-GPS

• Definition of measurement strategies, datum systems, clamping concepts, and inspection procedures

• Analysis of measurement data and derivation of measures for dimensional, form, and positional deviations

• Release of components and direct feedback to production, machining, and CAM

• Monitoring, calibration, and management of measuring instruments and testing equipment

• Development and maintenance of inspection plans, FAI documentation, and quality records

• Participation in EN 9100 / ISO 9001-compliant processes and audit preparations

• Further development of internal quality assurance, including the digital use of measurement and quality data

Profile

• Several years of practical experience in CMM programming, 3D metrology, or industrial quality assurance

• Suitable background as a Metrology Technician (m/f/d), Quality Engineer (m/f/d), Quality Inspector (m/f/d), or in a comparable role

• Proficient in using PC-DMIS, Zeiss Calypso, or comparable CMM software

• Experience in precision manufacturing, CNC machining, fine mechanics, or similar production environments

• Very good knowledge of reading drawings, GD&T, form and positional tolerances, and ISO GPS

• Routine in measuring tight tolerances, including in the range of ±0.01 mm and below

• Practical experience with gantry CMMs, hand measuring tools, gauges, and other inspection methods

• Knowledge of FAI, EN 9102, AS9102, SPC, or process capability analyses is a plus

• Structured, analytical working style with a focus on root cause analysis and process improvement

• Good English skills for collaboration in an international environment
