Please note, this role is known internally as Higher Engineer
We are looking for a Dimensional Metrologist to join our Manufacturing Metrology Group. This group is based in Huddersfield and has a mission to provide confidence in measurement to manufacturing companies across the UK.
Due to an increasing focus on non-contact metrology techniques, we are looking for a metrologist to undertake a hands-on role and that can supplement our skills in this area, while still having an interest and experience in traditional CMM measurement.
What you’ll be doing:
* Assisting in delivering dimensional measurement to manufacturing companies and being part of research projects into developing methods of measurement.
* Developing measurement strategies and carrying out highly complex measurements using a range of metrology tools.
* Processing, interpreting and reporting on data.
Skills and experience that you can bring to the role:
* Experience in MCosmos, PCDMIS or Calypso, with an understanding of CMM measurement.
* Some experience in using at least one and preferably more non-contact metrology systems.
* Interpretation and formulation of uncertainty budgets.
* Strong communication and teamwork skills, the ability to communicate with colleagues and customers with a range of technical backgrounds.
* An organised and systematic approach, with an emphasis on quality of delivery.
We would also welcome the following:
* Strong understanding of common manufacturing processes.
* Experience in manufacturing quality, process engineering or continuous improvement projects.
* Proven experience in extracting features from point cloud data.
We actively recruit citizens of all backgrounds, but the nature of our work in specific departments means that nationality, residency and security requirements can be more tightly defined than others. You will be asked about this throughout the recruitment process. To work at NPL, you will need to obtain BPSS security clearance.
Please note: Applications will be reviewed, and interviews conducted throughout the duration of this advert therefore we may at any time bring the closing date forward. We encourage all interested applicants to apply as soon as practical.
