Career: Trainee Borescope Inspector

A Trainee Borescope Inspector assists in examining the interior of engines, turbines, pipelines, or other equipment using a borescope, which is a special tool with a camera. Their main role is to support experienced inspectors in identifying cracks, corrosion, or other defects in hard-to-reach places without disassembling the equipment. Trainees learn how to operate borescopes, document findings, follow safety procedures, and help ensure that machinery remains in good working condition. Over time, they gain the skills and experience needed to perform inspections independently.
