Sean Kingsbury

Mechanical Test Technician

Sean Kingsbury

Mechanical Test Technician Sean Kingsbury is an asset to the vibration testing site at Innovative Test Solutions (ITS).

Fascinated by the unique properties of vibration testing compared to the other types of industrial testing done at ITS, Sean decided early on in his career that he wanted to specialize in the sect.

After completing his education at Hudson Valley Community College Sean assimilated to his role at ITS with prepping lab sites for vibration testing.

The job requires a keen eye for detail and precision as the test subject or part needs to be correctly installed into the fixture before testing can begin but Sean is always up to perform.

Sean gained a passion for mechanics and engineering from his grandfather who introduced him to the field at a young age.

Even if he did not end up pursuing mechanical testing as a profession, Sean believes he wouldn’t stray too far from the industry. He’d choose welding or study to become a diesel mechanic.

A true outdoorsman, Sean prefers to be out on the water or on the slopes when not in the lab. In the future, Sean hopes to build his own home in the heart of the Adirondacks.
