What is an NDI Engineering job?

An NDI (Non-Destructive Inspection) Engineering job involves assessing materials and structures for defects without causing damage. NDI Engineers use techniques like ultrasonic, radiographic, magnetic particle, and dye penetrant testing to inspect components in industries like aerospace, manufacturing, and energy. Their work ensures safety, quality, and reliability by detecting flaws before they lead to failures.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Ndi Engineering position, and why are they important?

To thrive in NDI Engineering (Non-Destructive Inspection Engineering), a strong background in materials science, engineering principles, and experience with inspection techniques is essential. Proficiency with technical tools such as ultrasonic testing, radiography, eddy current, and certifications like ASNT Level II or III are typically required. Attention to detail, analytical thinking, and clear communication are valuable soft skills for success in this field. These skills ensure high-quality inspections, accurate defect analysis, and collaboration with multidisciplinary teams to guarantee product integrity and safety.

What are some typical daily responsibilities for someone working in NDI Engineering?

A professional in NDI Engineering is often responsible for planning and conducting non-destructive inspections on materials, components, or structures using a variety of testing methods. They analyze test results, document findings, and communicate any defects or irregularities to engineers and quality control teams. Regular calibration and maintenance of inspection equipment is also a key part of the job. Additionally, NDI Engineers frequently collaborate with production, maintenance, and safety teams to ensure all products meet industry and regulatory standards.

Company Overview: Kay & Associates, Inc. is a premier provider of aviation maintenance, engineering, and sustainment services for government and defense clients. Specializing in aircraft lifecycle support, we prioritize precision and reliability to keep fleets operational. At our JRB New Orleans facility, we deliver top-tier NDI services to ensure the structural integrity of military aviation assets.

Job Summary: The NDI Technician Level II will conduct advanced non-destructive testing on aircraft structures and components to detect subsurface defects, corrosion, and material flaws without causing damage. This mid-level role involves performing inspections using multiple NDI methods, interpreting results, and preparing detailed reports. The technician will mentor junior staff and support high-volume maintenance operations in compliance with industry regulations.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Execute Level II NDI inspections using ultrasonic testing (UT), eddy current (ET), magnetic particle (MT), liquid penetrant (PT), and radiographic (RT) methods on aircraft airframes, engines, and composites.
  • Calibrate and maintain NDI equipment, ensuring traceability and accuracy per ISO/AS9100 standards.
  • Interpret test data, identify defects (e.g., cracks, voids, delaminations), and recommend repair actions to maintenance teams.
  • Prepare comprehensive inspection reports, including sketches, photos, and disposition recommendations for engineering review.
  • Perform on-site and depot-level inspections during scheduled maintenance, phase inspections, and accident investigations.
  • Train and qualify Level I technicians on NDI procedures and safety protocols.
  • Ensure FOD control, housekeeping, and adherence to technical orders (TOs) and work instructions.
  • Participate in process audits and continuous improvement initiatives to enhance NDI efficiency.

Qualifications and Requirements:

  • High school diploma or GED required; associate degree in NDT technology or related field preferred.
  • Minimum 2-4 years of hands-on NDI experience in aviation or aerospace, with Level II certification in at least three methods (e.g., UT, ET, MT/PT).
  • ASNT (American Society for Nondestructive Testing) Level II certification or equivalent (e.g., NAS 410); current IRRSP (Individual Recertification and Renewal Status Program) enrollment.
  • Ability to read and interpret blueprints, NDI procedures, and aircraft maintenance manuals.
  • Proficiency with NDI software and data analysis tools.
  • U.S. citizenship required with eligibility for Secret-level security clearance.
  • Physical capability to work at heights, in awkward positions, and lift up to 40 lbs.

Preferred Skills:

  • Experience with military platforms (e.g., fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft) and composite materials.
  • Familiarity with MIL-STD-410 or equivalent military NDI standards.
  • Strong documentation skills and experience with digital reporting systems.
