About the Role
EIGHT TECHNIC MRO SERVICES seeks a 3D Scanning Specialist with hands-on experience in Creaform scanners and reverse engineering. The role involves planning and executing 3D scanning jobs, processing scan data, performing reverse engineering, and producing inspection reports.
Key Skills for This Role
Responsibilities
- Plan and execute 3D scanning jobs: part preparation, fixturing, targeting, lighting, and capture strategy.
- Operate Creaform handheld scanners to capture parts of varying size, finish, and complexity.
- Process raw scan data: alignment, mesh cleanup, hole filling, decimation, and export.
- Perform reverse engineering — convert meshes into parametric CAD models suitable for manufacturing or redesign.
- Perform first article and in process inspection: scan to CAD comparison, GD&T evaluation, and dimensional reporting.
- Produce clear, professional inspection reports for internal and customer use.
- Maintain and calibrate scanning equipment; manage targets, accessories, and software licenses.
- Collaborate with design and manufacturing teams to close the loop between as designed and as built parts.
Requirements
- 2+ years of hands on experience operating professional 3D scanners (handheld and/or arm mounted).
- Proven experience with the full scanning workflow: scan → mesh processing → CAD → inspection.
- Hands on proficiency with Creaform scanners and VXelements.
- Strong reverse engineering skills (Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Geomagic Design X, or equivalent).
- Experience producing dimensional inspection reports with GD&T.
- Ability to read engineering drawings and interpret tolerances.
- Proficiency with Polyworks Inspector and/or Modeler (strong plus).
- Experience with photogrammetry, structured light, or laser tracker workflows.
- Familiarity with aerospace or precision manufacturing inspection standards (AS9100, ISO 9001).
- CMM or portable arm (e.g., FARO) experience.
- Background in tooling, fixtures, or first article inspection.
Full Job Posting
About the Role
- We are looking for a 3D Scanning Specialist who owns the full scanning workflow — from setting up the part on the table to delivering a clean CAD model or a signed off inspection report.
- You should be comfortable with Creaform hardware and confident in turning scan data into engineering grade output.
