• Collaborate with engineering and manufacturing teams to develop and execute nondestructive inspection strategies for additively manufactured metal components (combustion and hot gas path gas turbine parts).
• Support new inspection techniques for additive component qualifications.
• Clear communication between cross functional teams covering inspection reports, feedback, and quality control.
• Develop, validate, document for review and apply inspection methods suitable for complex geometries and material properties typical of additive manufacturing. 
• Conduct inspections to support emergent repair activities and ensure quality following post-additive machining operations.
• Participate in technology development initiatives for advanced nondestructive inspection techniques, including CT, X-ray, ultrasonic, CMM, Blue Light and other relevant modalities.
• Document inspection requirements, results, and recommendations in clear and comprehensive reports, as well as schedule team review meetings for final approvals.
• Assist in project planning to establish inspection resource requirements and timelines.
• Ensure all inspection processes align with quality, safety, and compliance standards.

• Post-additive machining inspection assessments.
• Minutes and action items from technical review and planning meetings.

Desired Qualifications & Requirements:

• Minimum of 4 years experience in nondestructive inspection engineering roles.
• Minimum Level I Computed Tomography (CT) and Penetrant Inspection certification.
• Demonstrated experience in the inspection of additively manufactured metal components.
• Technical proficiency in CT, X-ray, ultrasonic, CMM, Blue Light and other inspection modalities for complex metal geometries.
• Experience supporting emergent repair and post-machining inspection in a turbine or power generation environment.
• Knowledge of engineering tools such as NX, AutoCAD, GOM and inspection modeling tools (e.g., CIVA).
• Strong oral and written communication skills.
• Leadership and interpersonal skills.
• Computer proficiency
• Demonstrated experience in the inspection of additively manufactured metal components.
