The Mid-Level Quality Control Technician is responsible for independently performing visual inspections and supporting advanced non-destructive examinations (NDE) of turbine components before shipment. This role ensures the quality, integrity, and traceability of rotating equipment parts and verifies that packaging and preservation meet both technical and project-specific standards. The technician plays a key role in final shipment readiness and customer satisfaction.
Conduct detailed visual inspections of gas/steam turbine parts including rotors, casings, couplings, blades, and auxiliary components.
Identify surface defects such as cracks, corrosion, impact damage, weld issues, and coating irregularities.
Verify markings, serial numbers, part tags, and documentation prior to final packing and dispatch.
Set up and perform Level I/II non-destructive testing (PT, MT, UT) in accordance with inspection plans and international codes.
Document NDE results accurately and escalate any findings to QA/QC engineers or supervisors for review and disposition.
Maintain inspection tools and ensure calibration status is current.
Inspect export crates, skids, shrink wraps, VCI application, and moisture protection (desiccants, barrier bags) for compliance with standards (e.g., ASTM D3951, MIL-STD-2073).
Validate labeling, stenciling, orientation markings, and handling symbols are applied correctly.
Prepare and update inspection reports, NDE logs, non-conformance reports (NCRs), and photo documentation packages.
Support creation of final inspection dossiers (including MRBs or shipping QA records).
Apply relevant quality standards including API 611/612, ISO 9001, ASME, and internal quality specifications.
Adhere to all health, safety, and environmental protocols during inspection and handling of heavy turbine parts.
Detailed visual inspection of turbine components for surface integrity
Execution and documentation of NDE methods (PT/MT/UT) for final shipment quality
Inspection of export crating and preservation for compliance with client and international standards
Preparation of inspection records and traceability documentation
Application of QA standards (API 611/612, ISO, ASME) in a logistics and dispatch context
Education: Diploma or Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering, QA/QC, or related technical discipline
Experience: 3–6 years of quality inspection experience, preferably in turbomachinery, rotating equipment, or heavy industrial fabrication
Skills:
Proficiency in reading mechanical drawings, P&IDs, and QA documentation
Familiarity with international inspection and preservation standards
Hands-on experience with NDE (certification preferred or in-progress)
Strong organizational and reporting skills
