EXO Inc. has been protecting public infrastructure across the U.S. since 2009. Without consistent maintenance and quality assurance, critical assets face a growing risk of failure over time. EXO delivers engineering, inspection, and remediation services for lighting poles, transmission towers, and other infrastructure exposed to ongoing wear from usage, aging, and environmental conditions.

With deep expertise in vertical infrastructure, EXO builds on years of engineering design and fabrication experience across utilities, telecom, transportation, and retail sectors. This foundation supports a comprehensive inspection and asset management approach that addresses both new installations and aging structures requiring immediate attention.

Recognizing that full replacement is often impractical due to cost and safety constraints, EXO developed its “Ex‑Tend” approach to manage assets throughout their entire life cycle. From initial quality assurance to ongoing inspection and targeted repairs, this method is designed to extend service life and improve reliability. Supported by data‑driven insights, EXO helps clients monitor asset conditions and make informed, strategic decisions.

The NDT Technician is responsible for the inspection of materials, structures, and assets by using non‑destructive testing techniques to examine structures for flaws and structural weaknesses. Doing so ensures compliance with safety standards, structural integrity, and overall quality. This role involves comprehensive assessments, documentation, and reporting of findings to maintain the reliability and safety of utility pole networks.

• Execute detailed inspections of structures and utility poles based on established safety guidelines, industry standards, and company protocols.
• Evaluate the structural integrity, examining for signs of corrosion, cracks, flaws, and other imperfections, calibrating equipment, and interpreting results with respect to applicable codes, standards, and specifications.
• Ensure compliance with safety regulations, identifying potential hazards and recommending necessary actions for repair or replacement.
• Accurately record inspection information into a data collection application including taking pictures and attaching required information while outlining inspection results, highlighting critical issues, and providing recommendations for corrective measures.
• Liaise with relevant stakeholders to communicate inspection outcomes and support the implementation of recommended actions.
• Contribute insights for the enhancement of inspection procedures, tools, or methodologies to optimize efficiency and accuracy.

• High school diploma or equivalent; additional vocational training or experience in a related field preferred.
• Minimum of one year experience with NDT, utility maintenance, or a relevant field preferred.
• Proficient understanding of utility poles, materials, corrosion, cracks, flaws, and safety standards.
• Certifications:
  
  NDT Level 2 UT, NDT Level 2 MT, and NDT Level 2 PT.
• Preferred additional certifications: NDT Level 2 UT Shear Wave; CWI Certification preferred.
• Exceptional attention to detail and observational skills.

• Strong written and verbal communication skills for report generation and collaboration.
• Ability to work independently and prioritize tasks effectively.
• Capable of performing fieldwork, utilizing NDT equipment.
• Ability to travel a minimum of 75%.

• Fine motor skills needed to handle tools and equipment accurately.
• Excellent vision: close, distance, color, peripheral, and depth perception for inspecting visual indicators of flaws.
• Ability to stand, walk, and bend for extended periods, often in challenging environments.
• Physical strength to lift and move equipment and materials, sometimes weighing up to 50 pounds; agility to access confined spaces, heights, or awkward positions.
• Good hand‑eye coordination to operate testing equipment effectively.
• Capacity to work in…
