Leak Detector Technician Senior Level Location:
Hingham and Rockland, MA Department:
Assembly & Testing Reports To:
Lead Quality Engineer / Fabrication Supervisor Employment Type:
Full-Time
Job Summary:
Seeking a highly skilled
Leak Detector Technician
to ensure the integrity of welded metal chambers used in space simulation environments for satellite testing. This position plays a critical role in maintaining ultra-high vacuum (UHV) standards and ensuring all chambers meet stringent aerospace specifications.
Key Responsibilities
Perform leak testing on welded metal vacuum chambers using helium mass spectrometry, pressure decay, and other advanced methods.
Inspect welds for porosity, cracks, and other defects that could compromise vacuum integrity.
Collaborate with welders, engineers, and cleanroom technicians to ensure compliance with aerospace‑grade fabrication standards.
Interpret technical drawings, vacuum system schematics, and fabrication specifications.
Document all test procedures, results, and corrective actions in accordance with ISO and AS9100 standards.
Maintain and calibrate leak detection equipment for accuracy and reliability.
Support root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives related to weld quality and chamber performance.
Qualifications
High school diploma or equivalent; technical certification in welding inspection or NDT (non‑destructive testing) preferred.
Minimum 7 years of experience in leak testing for vacuum systems, preferably in aerospace or high‑tech manufacturing.
Proficiency with helium leak detectors and vacuum system diagnostics.
Familiarity with TIG welding and materials such as stainless steel and aluminum used in UHV environments.
Ability to work in cleanroom conditions and follow contamination control protocols.
Strong attention to detail and excellent documentation skills.
Preferred Skills
Certification in Non‑Destructive Testing (e.g., ASNT Level II in Leak Testing or Visual Inspection).
Experience with space simulation chambers, thermal vacuum testing, or satellite environmental testing.
Knowledge of ASME, AWS D17.1, and NASA-STD welding and inspection standards.
Understanding of vacuum physics and chamber fabrication processes.
Physical Requirements
Ability to lift and maneuver heavy equipment and components.
Comfortable working in confined spaces and wearing PPE for extended periods.
Manual dexterity and visual acuity for detailed inspections.
