Quality Assurance & Testing

Hi Arun Varghese,
Now, you are in NDT technician, it is actually a place where all the productions assembly stage. Like all castes forged formed rolled, bend, and fabricated products from different mills join here. Each mill has its own QA/QC engineers. In construction many material reception, on going work inspection like visual check of welding and installation of equipment, motors, piping supports fittings, hydro test pneumatic test till commission, also documentation is considered in Quality Control. I suggest that Civil Engineering via B.Tech/B.E is one good option as it is itself in Construction field/engineering. So, you can go for it.

Hi,
In order to improve your position in the field of quality analysis, firstly shortlist what is it that you are looking for doing more than what is offered right now. Do ask the present organisation if you could take up senior posts or more responsibility, if any. Take up a couple of online courses. Many could be free too. Looking at industry standards and expectations for further roles up the ladder in quality analysis. Even by studying intently the job descriptions on job sites, educate yourself what to look forward to. Then take up coaching - self or otherwise.
Say, some related areas to equip with could be (there are many more, these are just examples):
SQL
Software development
Java
Software testing
Scrum
Python
Project management
Once you are confident, then make the smooth transition. You could do with either by applying on websites like Naukri, Linkedin, Monster, or better through references.
Keep about 6 months for the transition and don't make it too swift.
