RAM Aerospace has been powering flight and space exploration since 1975, delivering precision solenoids, valves, actuators, LVDTs, and RVDTs for commercial, defense, and space applications. Headquartered in St. George, Utah, with a facility in Valencia, California, we build mission-critical components that the world's leading aerospace programs depend on. Join a team that builds the future of aerospace, on time, with excellence. Your career takes off here!
As a Quality Control Final Inspector at RAM, you are the last line of defense between our precision aerospace components and the mission-critical systems they power. Your attention to detail ensures that every solenoid, valve, and actuator meets the highest standards of quality, safety, and performance—whether it’s headed to a commercial jet, a defense platform, or a spacecraft. This role is vital to upholding RAM’s reputation for excellence and reliability. With every inspection, you help protect lives, support national security, and advance aerospace innovation. If you take pride in precision and want to make a real impact, this is where your skills take flight.
Duties and Responsibilities
- First Article & Final Inspection: Inspect, test, and measure final-level assembled products for absolute conformance to all requirements and specifications. You will perform critical first article (first piece) buy-offs throughout the assembly process to catch errors early.
- AS9102 FAI Reporting: Prepare comprehensive, highly detailed AS9102 First Article Inspection reports when required by aerospace customers, documenting that every single design characteristic has been met.
- Blueprint & GD&T Analysis: Analyze and interpret complex aerospace blueprints, manuals, and data sets. You will apply your knowledge of GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing) to determine the exact testing procedures, adjustment methods, and measuring instruments required for each unique component.
- Precision Measurement & Equipment Verification: Use numerous types of precision handheld inspection tools and instruments (micrometers, calipers, gauges). You are responsible for ensuring all measuring equipment is verified, calibrated, and working properly prior to the acceptance of any product.
- Non-Conformance & Data Logging: Act as the ultimate gatekeeper by rejecting products, materials, or equipment that do not meet requirements. You will meticulously document rejected products per RAM’s internal specifications and record vital test data (weights, temperatures, grades, and quantities).
- Workflow & Logistics: Prepare accepted products for further processing, specialized packaging, or final shipping, and safely transport products to other workstations as necessary to keep the shipping dock flowing.
