Quality Control Technician – Visual/NDE Inspection of Shipped Turbine Parts

The Fresher Quality Control Technician is responsible for supporting the visual and basic non-destructive inspection (NDE) of turbine components prior to shipment. The role involves assisting in the quality verification of rotors, casings, skids, and other rotating equipment parts to ensure compliance with technical and packaging standards. This is an entry-level role offering hands-on training in mechanical inspection within a heavy equipment logistics environment.

Key Responsibilities:

1. Visual Inspection Support

• Perform basic visual inspections on turbine parts for surface defects, preservation integrity, damage, and labeling accuracy prior to shipment.

• Assist senior QC inspectors in identifying dents, corrosion, weld defects, or paint/coating issues.

2. NDE Assistance (Training Phase)

• Support setup and documentation for basic non-destructive examinations (e.g., PT, MT) under the supervision of qualified NDE personnel.

• Record inspection data and observations on standard checklists.

3. Packing Quality Verification

• Inspect packaging conditions to ensure compliance with preservation, crating, and export handling standards.

• Verify use of vapor barriers, desiccants, labeling, and container closure requirements.

4. Documentation and Reporting

• Assist in preparing quality reports, photo documentation, and shipment inspection records.

• Ensure proper tagging and traceability of parts being shipped.

5. Compliance and Safety

• Follow standard operating procedures and safety practices when working in inspection and shipping areas.

• Learn applicable standards (e.g., ASME, API, ISO) related to turbine component quality and inspection.

Key Focus Areas:

• Visual quality inspection and documentation of shipped turbine parts

• Support for non-destructive examination (training or observation level)

• Preservation, labeling, and packaging quality checks

• Recordkeeping and compliance with shipment QA standards

Qualifications:

• Education: Diploma or Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering, Quality, or Industrial Technology

• Experience: Entry-level (0–1 year); internships or academic projects in QA/QC or mechanical inspection preferred

• Skills:

  • Basic understanding of mechanical components and drawings

  • Familiarity with tools like calipers, visual inspection tools, or photo documentation

  • Willingness to learn NDE techniques and QA documentation practices

  • Good attention to detail and reliability in routine inspection tasks
