Producing fillet, lap, corner and butt welds
Working in accordance with ASME IX and ISO 15614
Working with carbon steel, stainless steel and high-nickel alloys
Supporting components through X-ray and radiographic inspection
Maintaining high standards of quality, workmanship and safety
Supporting wider engineering projects in the UK and potentially overseas

What We're Looking For

You'll need:

Previous Class 1 TIG welding or coded welding experience
Strong fabrication or plating experience
Experience within pressure vessels, oil and gas, pipefitting, heavy engineering or another high-integrity engineering environment
The ability to read and interpret engineering and fabrication drawings
