As a Non-Destructive Inspection Engineer your mission will be to define, develop, evaluate and improve NDT processes to be applied to the inspection of welded, machined or additive manufactured aerospace parts. Additionally, you will be actively involved in the equipment and tooling request, design and sourcing. Also you will act as a QA role for the NDT executions. Finally you will perform post-processing of NDT data.
