Piping Designer

Key Responsibilities:

• Produce detailed piping isometrics, general arrangement (GA) drawings, pipe rack/route layouts, and installation drawings for mechanical and process piping.
• Develop and update P&IDs, piping schedules, valve lists, and material/line-item BOMs.
• Create 3D models and spool drawings using CAD/Plant tools; coordinate with structural, electrical, and equipment vendors for clash-free routing.
• Specify pipe materials, fittings, supports, flanges, valves, and insulation consistent with chemical compatibility and cleanroom requirements.
• Apply relevant codes and standards (ASME B31, local plumbing codes, SEMI where applicable) and ensure designs meet EHS and contamination-control constraints.
• Support construction and installation: prepare fabrication packages, review shop drawings, and respond to RFIs during installation.
• Work with procurement to prepare material takeoffs and vendor RFQs; evaluate vendor drawings and suggest constructability improvements.
• Perform site surveys and as-built markups; update drawings post-installation and maintain accurate drawing/version control.
• Participate in commissioning support, start-up troubleshooting, and punch-list resolution for installed piping systems.
• Collaborate with process, facilities, EH&S, and operations teams to maintain production continuity and minimize disruption.
• Maintain design standards, templates, and CAD libraries; drive continuous improvement of drafting workflows.

Qualifications:

• Experience with AutoCAD, PDMS, and Isometric preparation.
• Minimum 5 years’ experience in an engineering design role supporting project and facilities work for a chemical, petrochemical, nuclear, or pharmaceutical industrial facility.
• Ability to work onsite 40 hours per week and meet all site entry requirements and adhere to safety protocols for facility access.
• Strong communication skills to collaborate with engineers and design teams.
