Nowra, New South Wales, Australia Qinetiq Full time

QinetiQ is a leading defence and security company with over 8500 employees in more than 50 locations worldwide. As a global business, we offer premier expertise in advice, services, and technology-based products to help our customers overcome their most challenging problems.

We strive to deliver exceptional results today while anticipating and shaping the future. This makes QinetiQ an exciting, rewarding, and respected place to work and learn. Our Australia Sector has over 1,200 employees operating across four countries, namely Australia, Canada, Germany, and the United Kingdom.

Headquartered in Nowra, New South Wales, QinetiQ Air Affairs provides targets and training services, as well as electronic warfare capabilities to the Australian Defence Force. We also support government firefighting efforts with aerial surveillance and reconnaissance. Air Affairs owns and operates a fleet of special mission aircraft and maintains an advanced manufacturing facility providing design, manufacture, and certification operations.

We are seeking an experienced CNC Programmer with skills in Co-ordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) to support our quality control function. The ideal candidate will ensure that our products consistently meet or exceed customer expectations. In addition to programming, updating, and maintaining CMM machines, this role will also provide vital support as a Computer Numerical Control (CNC) operator during high-demand periods.

Your day-to-day role will involve working with a supportive team to:

  • Drive continuous quality improvement initiatives
  • Conduct product quality inspections to uphold our high standards
  • Measure and analyse sample and production parts for compliance with engineering specifications
  • Oversee daily production records and ensure adherence to established processes and standards
  • Provide constructive feedback to the production team for process enhancement
  • Collaborate with management and supervisors to maintain efficient production practices

To be successful in this role, you will need:

  • Experience in CNC and ideally CMM but a willingness to learn or move into a quality role would also be considered
  • An understanding of design tolerances and the manufacturing process of high-quality complex parts
  • Attention to detail and organisation skills
  • Certificate III in Mechanical Engineering

This opportunity will allow you to develop your skills in an advanced manufacturing environment and support critical infrastructure to the ADF. You will be provided with the chance to learn and grow with our company.

Candidates will need to be eligible to obtain an Australian Government Security Clearance.

We value diversity of thought and seek applications from people who come from diverse backgrounds and experiences. Aligned with our Diversity and Inclusion Strategy and Reconciliation Action Plan, we encourage applications from women, veterans, and First Nations people.

QinetiQ conducts pre-employment screening, including identity verification and police checks, for all preferred candidates.

We estimate the salary for this position to be around $90,000-$110,000 per year, depending on experience and qualifications. This amount is based on industry standards and location factors.
