As an NDT Technician, you will be responsible for performing various inspection techniques including Ultrasonic Testing, Magnetic Particle, Liquid/Fluid Penetrant, Eddy Current, Radiography, Hardness, and Conductivity. It is crucial to comply with maintenance manuals, publications, and adhere to all Defence Aviation Safety Authority (DASA) Aeronautical regulatory procedures.
