Inspect welds, soldered joints and completed assemblies for workmanship, conformity and leaks.
Diagnose and rectify leaks, poor joints, misalignment and other manufacturing defects.
Read and interpret engineering drawings, bills of materials and manufacturing instructions.
Contribute to improvements in welding methods, assembly processes, tooling and product quality.
