Job Details

Responsibilities

Organize and assign each day’s work based on work orders, crew skill sets, material availability, and the production priorities set by the Production Manager. Share daily targets with the crew and track progress throughout the shift.
Before work begins, confirm that approved drawing packets, materials, pick tickets, weld maps, and any required CNC files are on hand. Raise incomplete releases, material shortages, and drawing questions without delay.
Supervise vessel fit-up, shell and head assembly, nozzle orientation, internals, and supports, and verify dimensions against approved drawings. Prevent unapproved changes and route technical questions to Engineering and Quality.
Make sure assigned welders are properly qualified and work to approved welding procedure specifications (WPS). Work with Quality to address qualification and training needs.
Uphold all safety requirements, lead crew safety meetings, keep PPE stocked, and stop work whenever conditions are unsafe. Report incidents and near misses right away.
Keep work areas clean, organized, and safely accessible. Inspect tools, fabrication equipment, and lifting gear within your area of responsibility, report any defects, and coordinate needed maintenance.
Prepare work for inspection and make sure all required hold points are honored. Coordinate with Quality so that repairs are completed and accepted before work moves to the next operation.
Preserve material identification and traceability throughout fabrication. Work with Material Management on staging, shortages, transfers, and returning unused material.

Required Qualifications

High school diploma, or equivalent relevant work experience.
Five or more years of pressure vessel fabrication experience, with at least two years as a lead or supervisor.
Proven track record supervising vessel fit-up, assembly, and welding in a production setting.
Able to read fabrication drawings, weld symbols, bills of material, and work instructions.
Working knowledge of applicable API and ASME fabrication requirements, approved welding procedures, inspection hold points, and material traceability.
