Responsibilities

Work as an NDT certified Level II with supporting departments to plan and coordinate work that is necessary to accomplish complex setups, inspections and modifications of quality requirements to accommodate various aerospace propulsion systems.
Review and check complex procedures, drawings, work instructions (WI), and specifications to detect errors and interface with planning and/or engineering to recommend changes or revisions to improve efficiencies and methods in nondestructive testing operations
Perform complex NDT inspections and determine acceptance/rejection to requirements.
Plan, set up, calibrate, and perform system capability checks for all pertinent inspection systems.
Generate and develop procedures and technique sheets for approval by a NDT Level III. Interpret NDT methods specifications and evaluate discontinuities to existing quality documents.
Visually inspect parts for material defects and irregularities. Witness selection and application of accessories required for pressure tests and visually check tests for any leakage.
Clean and otherwise process parts for NDT inspection processes. Select or devise appropriate holding devices and make recommendations for the modification of fixtures and tools to accommodate new, unusual, or irregularly shaped parts.
Prepare detailed reports for inspections performed showing defect(s) revealed by the test as applicable. For all tests, accept or reject material based on interpretation of applicable standards. Fill out quality review orders or inspection discrepancy and correction records and mark parts, scope, or chart to show indications of defects revealed and to process unacceptable parts per procedures. Determine root cause(s) and work with others to establish effective corrective action to resolve. Responsible for entering pertinent information into all computer systems using the Point of Origin Material Review Board Procedures to ensure historical information is properly maintained. Complete and stamp all required documentation to acknowledge accepted/rejected hardware.
Clean parts requiring minor cleaning after inspection using conventional means.
Ensure the movement of parts is tracked through applicable systems and carry small parts to their next location or contact inside transportation for the movement of large parts.
Assure equipment is maintained properly, that supply inventories are adequate and notify Procurement to initiate purchase orders when required.
Perform over-inspections and audits as required to ensure flow of material through manufacturing process.
Comply with environmental health and safety regulations and program requirements to ensure safe working conditions and to preserve a healthy environment.
