Requirements typically include recognised NDT qualifications and certifications, relevant aviation or engineering experience, knowledge of inspection standards, and the ability to interpret technical documentation.

Strong communication, problem-solving skills, attention to detail and a commitment to safety and quality are essential. Shift work, travel or work in operational maintenance environments may also be required.
