  • NDT/NDI knowledge is advantageous and preferred.
  • Core Competencies include:
    • Distributed Technical Leadership - Demonstrated ability to lead, develop, and align highly experienced technical professionals across multiple, geographically dispersed laboratory locations. This competency includes setting clear expectations, managing performance remotely, fostering engagement, and ensuring consistent execution without direct day-to-day oversight.

    • Operational Transformation & Continuous Improvement - Expertise in transforming a reactive technical organization into a proactive, consultative, and value-adding function. This includes identifying inefficiencies, standardizing processes, implementing best practices, and driving continuous improvement initiatives that enhance scalability, throughput, and operational consistency across laboratory networks.

This competency encompasses supporting audits, managing nonconformance investigations, leading root cause analyses, and ensuring adherence to standards such as AS, ISO, and NADCAP to maintain technical excellence and customer confidence.
    • Program & Capital Project Support - Proven ability to support and/or provide consult on complex, high-impact projects such as lab consolidations, relocations, expansions, and capital investments. This includes budgeting, scheduling, vendor coordination, risk management, and execution discipline to deliver projects on time, within scope, and aligned with strategic capacity and growth objectives.
    • Strategic & Commercial Technical Partnership - Ability to act as a senior technical subject matter expert supporting sales, business development, and customer engagement. This competency involves translating complex technical capabilities into business value, advising customers at a high level, and aligning technical strategy with broader business unit growth and competitive positioning.
