About the Opportunity:
Crestone NDT is seeking motivated, career-focused individuals to join our team and grow within the non-destructive testing (NDT) field. While our primary need is for a Phased Array Ultrasonic Testing (PAUT) technician, we are also interested in candidates with experience in Ultrasonic Shear Wave (UTSW) or robotic inspection systems.
Whether you're:
• A newly trained PAUT technician ready to gain field hours,
• A UT Level II seeking to transition into advanced techniques like PAUT,
• A UTSW technician with a strong interest in cross-training into PAUT,
• Or someone with robotics experience and limited UT knowledge who’s eager to develop NDT skills —
we encourage you to apply.
This role offers a hands-on, growth-oriented environment with long-term potential in advanced NDT services.

What You Can Expect:
• Hands-On Mentorship: Work directly with top-tier PAUT professionals committed to your development.
• Flexible Entry Paths: Tailored onboarding based on your background — PAUT, UTSW, or robotics.
• Growth Opportunities: Cross-train into PAUT, multi-method NDT, and advanced robotic inspection systems.
• Excellent Local Pay: Strong hourly compensation for work in the Richmond and Rodeo refinery areas.
• Work-Life Balance: About 90% of work is local, with occasional travel as needed.

Ideal Candidate Profile:
• Path 1: Formal PAUT training and looking to gain experience
• Path 2: UT Level II technician ready to transition into PAUT
• Path 3: UTSW experience and interested in cross-training into PAUT
• Path 4: Robotic inspection experience (crawlers, automated scanners, etc.) with basic UT knowledge and desire to expand
• Strong work ethic, positive attitude, and team-first mentality
• Must be able to work in refinery environments and meet site safety requirements
________________________________________
Benefits:
• Competitive hourly pay with performance-based increases
• Mentorship and training from senior-level NDT professionals
• Access to advanced inspection projects and technology
• Opportunities to earn additional certifications and grow within the company
