Certified Welding Inspector
AEIS LLC, Corona, NY, United States
Certified Welding Inspector (CWI)
Location: NY Metro Area (Job Sites) Employment Type: Full-Time
At AEIS, we do more than inspect
we build confidence in the world around us. Our work supports infrastructure, innovation, and the future of our communities. We value craftsmanship, teamwork, and continuous improvement, and we invest in the people who share those values.
Here, your career is a path
not a position. AEIS professionals grow into QA Leads, Technical Specialists, and Project Leaders who shape the future of construction quality.
AEIS operates a full in-house NDT & Technical Training Program covering MT, UT, Hardness testing, and more. Whether you're building new skills or enhancing your expertise, you'll find hands-on support, mentorship, and real career mobility.
