NDE Level I Technician

HMT is currently seeking a motivated NDE Level I Technician to join our team. This entry-level position is designed for individuals who demonstrate punctuality, accountability, and a strong desire to grow within the nondestructive examination (NDE) field. The Level I Technician will assist in piping inspection projects, prioritizing tasks such as taking UT readings, learning basic NDE methods, maintaining equipment, and supporting report deliverables (e.g., isometric drawings, quality photos, data entry, and job forms).
