Precision TIG/SMAW Pipe Welder (6G Proficiency)

Build what pressure demands

You take pride in welds that stand up to inspection and time. In this role, you’ll apply your craft to pressure pipe from 1/2” through 24”, schedules 10–160, across carbon steel, stainless steel, and exotic metals. You’ll switch seamlessly between GTAW and SMAW, interpret ISOs and P&IDs, and deliver x‑ray quality results in flat, vertical, horizontal, and overhead positions.

Your Impact

• Execute code‑quality welds in both shop and field environments with an all‑positions (6G) capability.
• Translate welding symbols into action and match processes to system specifications.
• Contribute beyond the bead: install piping, supports, valves, and associated components; test completed systems to plan and spec.
• Own the fit‑up: clamp, hold, tack, grind, and bolt parts to perfect alignment.
• Own your work: stamp, paint, or label welds with correct welder identification.

How You Operate

• Safety is non‑negotiable—consistent PPE use (safety glasses, face masks, gloves, work boots, harnesses, and required site gear) and adherence to all rules.
• Collaborate clearly with coworkers, supervisors, and clients.
• Travel ready and open to overtime when project timelines demand it.

Tools of the Trade

• Pipe threaders, burning torches, grinders, porta‑band saws, chain falls, and common hand tools.
• Mobile equipment, including fork trucks and high‑reach lifts.

What It Takes

• High school diploma or GED.
• 3–7 years of hands‑on pipe welding experience.
• Physical capacity to lift up to 50 lbs, perform repetitive motions, and execute fine tool control per established procedures.

Compliance

• Possess valid identification to work in United States.
• Must have ability to pass a drug screening and criminal background check.
