Level II non-destructive testing technicians earned salaries that ranged from $50,000 to $109,000 in 2024, according to The American Society for Nondestructive Testing (ASNT) Foundation Compensation Survey. The ASNT categorizes those who have earned the Level II certification as demonstrating the "knowledge and skills needed to perform inspections independently, interpret results, and prepare reports." Entry-level specialists who are not certified, but who can perform inspections under supervision, earned $36,000 to $60,000.

Technicians employed full time usually receive benefits such as paid vacation, holidays, and sick time, and insurance. They may also receive reimbursement for continuing education and training programs.
