The Role
Supervises employees who test and/or inspect products to determine compliance with specifications.
Must Have
Apprentice graduate, Bachelor's Degree or equivalent and 6 years of applicable technical experience. 4 years of related exempt experience can be substituted for Bachelor's degree.

E37 NDT Engineering has added ten new VT and MT/PT examiner positions as a result of ongoing inspection non-compliances and NAVSEA audit findings. With the limited number of examiners today virtually no deck plate re-inspections were being performed while O38 has added a significant number of new inspectors. The group is currently managed by one individual. This group has grown to more than 20 examiners. In order to manage the examiners the group is being divided into two different groups, one for VT and one for MT/PT. Each group would be managed by Test Inspection Manager 2s. The lack of deck plate oversight has resulted in 1000s of hours of rework. In order to mitigate the impact of the NDE recoveries the frequency of reinspections on the deck plate will increase. The position will be providing cognizance over the entire VT, PT and PT inspection programs.
Nice to Have
The candidate should have a minimum of 6 years of hands on experience as an NDT examiner in MT/PT or VT.
The candidate should currently qualified in at least one NDT method such as MT, or PT per the requirements of ASTM SNT-TC1A.
The candidate should have experience writing NDT procedures, qualifying and testing Inspectors, performing NDT audits, performing technical performance evaluations and re-inspections supporting NuVal shipbuilding.
The candidate should have experience training and testing new NDT examiners/Level III inspectors.
