• Time of Flight Diffraction (ToFD) / Phased Array (PA): Advanced ultrasonic methods for precise flaw detection;
• Film Interpretation (FI): Assessing radiographic images based on standards and specifications.

Together with our planners and project managers, you ensure that inspections are carried out efficiently and accurately. Your expertise helps companies reduce risks, optimize maintenance strategies, and maintain high quality standards.

• Everything you need to get started, such as a laptop, phone, and company car;
• Plenty of opportunities for training and development to help you grow personally and professionally.
