Explanation:
Zunächst entschuldige ich mich für den langen Beitrag, aber hier musste nachgewiesen werden, dass es im Englischen keinen adäquaten Begriff für "Messschlosser" gibt. Deshalb die vielen Suchergebnisse. Da alle Referenzen mit dem Begriff "Messschlosser" von der Deutschen Bahn stammen, ist erst zu prüfen, wie relevant der Zusatz ist.

Zum nächstmöglichen Zeitpunkt suchen wir Dich als (Mess-)Schlosser (w/m/d) für die DB Fahrzeuginstandhaltung GmbH am Standort Nürnberg.

Es geht also um die Instandhaltung (Wartung) von rollendem Material, wo der Bauteilverschleiß überprüft und gemessen und die Bauteile ggfs. ausgetauscht wird. Dies macht der Instandhalter (Warungsarbeiter).

Welche Bezeichnungen sind im Englischen üblich? Wie zu sehen, wird in Ausschreibungen praktisch nie die Aufgabe des Messens erwähnt, geschweige denn in die Berufsbezeichnung aufgenommen. Ist auch verständlich, weil das Messen immer zur Tätigkeit eines Instandhalters (Wartungsarbeiters) gehört und als selbstverständlich vorausgesetzt wird.

  -> "Messschlosser" ist ein Kunstwort und erst seit kurzem bei der Bahn Mode geworden, um den Beruf attraktiver zu machen. Jeder Schlosser, Mechaniker und Instandhalter hatte immer schon zu messen und zu prüfen. Ich warte noch auf den "Prüfschlosser".
