About the role

About Lucid At Lucid, we are creating exceptional mobility experiences through innovation to drive the world forward. Built on Lucid’s proprietary technology and software-defined vehicle architecture, our award-winning vehicles bring our “Compromise Nothing™” approach to the global automotive market. That means refusing to choose between performance and sustainability, design and engineering, ambition and integrity. In Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, we have designed and built vehicles that have redefined their segments, combining exceptional range, performance, design, and expansive space in a single experience. We achieve this through deep vertical integration, with design, engineering, and production happening in-house across our global offices and manufacturing facilities. Our teams come from industries around the world, united by a shared commitment to excellence. By refusing to settle, you can help redefine what’s possible and shape the future of mobility. The CMM Programmer develops, validates, optimizes, and maintains Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) programs and dimensional inspection methods for vehicle launch and series production at Lucid Motors. Reporting to the Metrology Manager, this role ensures efficient, accurate, repeatable, and traceable measurement of stamped parts, body structures, closures, assemblies, fixtures, tooling, Powertrain components, and investigation samples. The CMM Programmer works closely with Dimensional Engineering, Manufacturing, Product Engineering, Supplier Quality, Tooling, and Metrology Technicians to translate engineering requirements into reliable measurement strategies and actionable dimensional reports. Key Responsibilities - Develop, prove out, validate, optimize, document, and maintain CMM programs using approved CAD models, engineering drawings, GD&T, measurement plans, and acceptance criteria. - Define robust part alignments, datum structures, probing strategies, feature constructions, scanning paths, clearance moves, measurement sequences, and reporting outputs. - Create and maintain inspection programs for stamped panels, Body-in-White (BIW), closures, assemblies, fixtures, tooling, master parts, Powertrain components, and investigation samples. - Validate new and revised programs through feature verification, repeatability studies, correlation, peer review, and comparison with approved reference methods. - Interpret engineering drawings, CAD models, GD&T, special characteristics, tolerance requirements, and dimensional control plans to ensure complete measurement coverage. - Optimize program cycle time and equipment utilization without compromising measurement accuracy, repeatability, accessibility, or safety. - Perform or support Measurement System Analysis (MSA), Gage Repeatability and Reproducibility (Gage R&R), measurement uncertainty studies, capability analysis, and correlation between CMM, ScanBox, eCube, fixtures, and manual measurement methods. - Generate clear dimensional reports, deviation summaries, trend and SPC charts, color maps, and technical findings for launch, production, audits, containment, and root cause investigations. - Support fixture buyoff, tooling verification, engineering changes, new-part introduction, trial builds, safe launch, process validation, and dimensional sign-off. - Troubleshoot CMM programs, probe configurations, alignments, software errors, collisions, environmental effects, and inconsistent measurement results. - Maintain program revision control, backups, naming conventions, report templates, probe libraries, qualification records, calibration status, and measurement traceability. - Coordinate with Metrology Technicians to ensure correct program execution, part setup, fixture use, data storage, and escalation of abnormal results. - Provide training and technical coaching on CMM operation, program execution, GD&T interpretation, measurement methods, reporting, and equipment care. - Support continuous improvement of programming standards, measurement cycle time, automation, data visualization, correlation, and metrology workflows. Skills - Advanced CMM programming and measurement capabilities, including CAD-based programming, offline programming, alignments, datum setup, probe qualification, scanning, feature construction, reporting, and troubleshooting. - Strong knowledge of GD&T, datum reference frames, tolerance interpretation, coordinate metrology, measurement uncertainty, MSA, repeatability, and correlation methods. - Experience with common CMM software platforms and dimensional data analysis or reporting tools. - Ability to interpret complex engineering drawings, CAD models, specifications, measurement plans, and automotive dimensional control requirements. - Working knowledge of optical measurement, ScanBox, eCube or inline measurement systems, laser scanning, checking fixt
