About The Position

L3Harris is seeking an experienced Ultrasonic Inspector Level 2 for its Canoga Park, California facility, which produces propulsion components and systems for NASA, military, and commercial contracts. The factory supports production across two shifts on a 9/80 schedule. The role is on the second shift, with training on the first shift. The inspector examines ferrous and nonferrous raw stock, brazed assemblies, machined parts, diffusion-bonded parts, assemblies, and weldments for defects and compliance with fracture-control requirements, engineering drawings, customer acceptance criteria, and other established requirements. The work uses ultrasonic inspection equipment and processes on materials and structures that may be subject to high stress, temperature, or pressure.

Requirements

Current Ultrasonic Level II certification.
At least two years of aerospace ultrasonic testing experience.
Ability to operate an ultrasonic testing immersion system.

Nice To Haves

Computer skills, including PowerPoint, Excel, and Word.
Ability to read and interpret drawings.
Ability to accurately document inspection findings.

Responsibilities

Plan inspection methods and determine the ultrasonic equipment required to inspect the internal structure of metal materials, parts, assemblies, and weldments.
Set up and operate immersion and contact ultrasonic equipment, using special probes and adapting to variations in surfaces, thicknesses, materials, and accessibility.
Follow established manuals and standards, and develop procedures when standards are not specified.
Prepare materials, parts, and assemblies for inspection; improvise and adapt equipment as needed.
Monitor equipment and make adjustments to compensate for non-relevant ultrasonic signals, including adjusting sensitivity and attenuation controls.
Set up and operate peripheral computer-controlled equipment to input ultrasonic baseline data in conjunction with ultrasonic equipment operations.
Contour wedges, shoes, or other required components under direction for proper application of ultrasonic equipment.
Inspect and interpret oscilloscope readings or ultrasonic recordings for machined parts, diffusion-bonded parts, assemblies, and weldments.
Analyze and interpret indications of flaws, defects, normal discontinuities, or interference.
Detect and identify flaws and defects, determine their size and shape, mark their locations, and determine acceptability.
Record inspection results manually or using computer-based systems.
Accept or reject items according to fracture-control specifications or other critical customer requirements; order rejection and rework or sign off items as acceptable.
