Experienced Aerospace Final Inspector (Chatsworth)
Salary not disclosed
Description:
Join Align Aerospace as an Experienced Aerospace Final Inspector Not Entry-Level. Not Boring. Not Stuck. Precision. Authority. Career Trajectory.

At Align Aerospace, we don’t just distribute aerospace fasteners — we protect aircraft, crews, and passengers around the world. We are hiring an experienced Final Quality Inspector who is ready to own the final release decision on mission-critical aerospace components.

This is not entry-level inspection. This is high-accountability, high-skill, high-impact work.

Your Role: The Final Authority

As our Experienced Final Inspector, you are the last technical checkpoint before parts ship to global aerospace customers.

You will independently:

- Inspect First Articles (FAIs) to AS9100 standards
- Interpret detailed engineering drawings and apply advanced GD&T
- Inspect high-precision aerospace fasteners and components
- Review Certificates of Conformance, test reports, and material certs
- Determine final acceptance or rejection based on contractual compliance
- Document findings in SAP and maintain audit-ready quality records
- Support delegated inspection activities when applicable
- Mentor junior inspectors and elevate team capability

You will regularly complete 20–24 inspection jobs per day while maintaining absolute accuracy.

This is a role for someone confident in their judgment and comfortable making technical calls without supervision.

You’ll inspect and validate components to the industry's highest standards — AS9102, ISO 9001, and customer-specific specs. Every part you approve supports pilots, protects passengers, and powers global flight. This isn’t just a job — it’s a responsibility with altitude.

5 Reasons Why Top Performers Choose Align Aerospace

- Predictable inspection volume and structure
- Stable aerospace industry environment

Not every aerospace company offers schedule flexibility — we do.

4. A Workplace That Respects You

- Casual work environment
- Shoe credit program
- Ongoing professional development
- Clear path to Lead and Delegated Inspector roles

We invest in inspectors who want to build careers — not just collect paychecks.

5. You’ll Be Challenged (In a Good Way)

- Fast-paced environment
- Complex drawing review
- Customer quality clauses
- Audit-ready documentation
- Real responsibility

If you want to grow your technical skill set — this is where it happens.

The Difference is Clear
Unlike competitors who limit advancement and freeze pay bands, Align promotes internally and develops technical leaders.

Requirements:

What You Bring to the Table

This role is built for experienced inspectors who know their craft and want to use it.

You likely have:

? 3–5+ years of hands-on inspection experience in aerospace, medical device, or high-precision manufacturing
? Strong working knowledge of AS9100 / ISO 9001 quality systems
? Advanced understanding of GD&T — not just basic print reading
? Confidence interpreting complex engineering drawings and specifications
? Experience working within an ERP system (SAP strongly preferred)

You’re comfortable making final acceptance decisions — and standing behind them..

Your Technical Toolkit

You don’t guess. You measure. You’re proficient with:

- Micrometers
- Calipers
- Height Gauges
- Optical Comparators
- Thread & Ring Gauges
- Bore Gauges
- Surface Plates
- Instant Measurement Systems

If you’ve trained others on proper measurement setup — even better.

Bonus Points (Not Required, But Impressive)

These aren’t required — but they show you’re serious about your craft.
