Senior Mechanical & Piping Designer

Responsibilities

• Develop mechanical design packages with complete sets of mechanical drawings involving modified or original designs.
• Perform assignments requiring considerable field design/drafting experience and the use of mathematical skills to compute weights, dimensions, quantities of materials.
• Ability to obtain data from field observations. Work from sketches and verbal information supplied by Project Managers/Area representatives to develop sketches or drawings with appropriate views, details, and supplementary information to complete assignments.
• Prepare mechanical designs that comply with applicable design codes, standard engineering practices (SEPs), RAGAGEPs, engineering design sketches, fabrication and constructability requirements, and clearness/completeness of drafting presentation.
• Exercise independent judgment in selecting and interpreting data based on knowledge of the design intent and required information from existing drawings, manufacturer’s catalogues, technical guides, codes, standards, SEPs, RAGAGEPs, field survey notes.
• Keep the Project Manager/Area representative informed of progress, design issues, and/or changes that might impact schedule or man-hour budgets.
• Interface with other disciplines as required to effectively and efficiently develop mechanical design deliverables.
• Function as a design reviewer as needed, assuring compliance with engineering design sketches and calculations, applicable design codes, fabrication and constructability, industry standards, clearness, completeness/dimensional accuracy of the design, and drafting presentation.
• Support and participate in activities that enhance the current Safety Culture at the Site.

Qualifications

• Expected Associate’s degree in Design or Engineering
• 15+ years of practical industrial design experience
• Piping experience
• Knowledge of industrial processes, fabrication and construction techniques, equipment, design philosophies, codes, industry standards, and practices
• Familiar with Industrial Facility safety policies and procedures
• Thoroughly knowledgeable of the types of construction drawings and details required by their discipline
• Familiar with Microstation/AutoCAD and MS Office software
• This is a multidisciplined role. Designer may work on all aspects of the design, to include, but not limited to the following: civil, structural, mechanical, HVAC, piping, equipment layout, pressure vessels, machine design
• Proactive and highly motivated, thriving with autonomy and dedicated to continuous process improvement
• Desirable: 3D Modeling

About the role

The Senior Piping & Mechanical/Multidisciplined Designer will create comprehensive mechanical design packages, using mathematical skills and field experience to develop innovative solutions. They will work autonomously, interpreting data and collaborating with teams to ensure precision and adherence to design standards. The role involves designing mechanical systems for oil and gas projects, ensuring designs comply with industry standards and codes. The designer will also interface with other disciplines to ensure seamless integration of mechanical designs with other project elements.
