This role combines multiple NDT disciplines, supporting critical industries including nuclear, defense, manufacturing, and aerospace.

Core Duties and Responsibilities 
Perform Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): 

• Mass Spectrometer Leak Testing (MSLT) Level II: Perform helium mass spectrometer leak detection utilizing both qualitative and quantitative techniques within the MSLT method (Detector probe, Tracer Probe, Hood Testing, Evacuated envelope, and Helium filled object) to verify leak tightness and leakage rates, ensuring results meet procedures, specifications, codes and standards.
• Pressure Change Management Testing (PCMT) Level II: Perform pressure change testing examinations/inspections (Pressure Decay and Rate of Rise) leakage in accordance with procedures, specifications, codes and standards.
• Visual Testing (VT) Level II: Conduct detailed visual examinations of materials and welds to identify surface discontinuities, wear, and various defects using specialized tools (e.g., weld and profile gauges, borescopes, and other measuring devices).
• ANSI Visual Inspections of ancillary, safety related equipment and processes in the Dry Fuel Storage of spent nuclear fuel/refueling applications.  Typical inspections include visual inspections of equipment, and parts of equipment (nuts, bolts, washers, gussets, etc.), receipt inspections, witnessing hydrotesting results, and coating examinations.
• Liquid Penetrant Testing (PT) Level II: Successfully process liquid penetrant examinations and interpret penetrant testing results to identify surface-breaking discontinuities in non-porous welds and materials, ensuring results meet procedures, specifications, codes and standards.

Team and Safety Responsibilities:

• Provide instruction and guidance to trainees and Level I technicians.
• Strictly follow LTS and client safety procedures, ensuring PPE use at all times.
• Immediately report unsafe practices or conditions to supervisors.
