Quality Specialist, Machining
As our first Quality Specialist, you will be tasked with the unique challenge of both inspecting machined parts and creating new quality processes to support production and engineering teams. Astranis is producing some of the most capable and compact geostationary satellites ever flown, which demand complex geometry and tight tolerances to achieve the mission performance and life targets. If you are ready to take precision to the next level, this job is for you!
This role will be the first dedicated quality person in the machining and development operations group, and will work closely with the head of machining to ensure the highest quality controls for parts made both internally and externally, as well as performing key measurements on the satellite and owning quality processes across the business. The ideal candidate has extensive precision/dimensional inspection experience using an array of tools both manual and automated, can set up new processes from scratch with minimal direction, and can fluently communicate with engineers to improve our part designs and documentation.
