The ideal candidate will have a proven expertise in the fabrication and welding of duplex stainless steel and Inconel-clad carbon steel pipe spools.

ROLE

The successful candidate will play a key role in the production of high-integrity process piping, working to exacting quality standards across pipe sizes ranging from ¾" to 9" OD, in full compliance with project specifications and applicable welding codes.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Perform GTAW (TIG) welding on duplex stainless steels and Inconel-clad carbon steel in accordance with approved Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS).
• Fabricate and weld pipe spools (¾"–9" OD) to tight tolerances, ensuring correct alignment, sound root fusion, and full weld penetration.
• Work in compliance with ASME Section IX, EN ISO 15614 / EN ISO 9606, or equivalent company-approved welding qualification standards.
• Accurately interpret isometric drawings, P&IDs, fabrication drawings, weld maps, and WPS/PQR documentation.
