    Your Day in This Role

    Morning: You start by reviewing the day’s Inspection & Test Plans (ITPs) and confirming welder qualifications against approved WPS/PQRs. You scan material heat numbers to verify traceability and confirm MTR documentation aligns with purchase specs.

    Midday: On the deck plates, you conduct Level II Visual Testing (VT) of weld fit-up, reinforcement, and profile. You compare piping isometrics and P&IDs to as-built conditions, check joint cleanliness for high-purity service, and flag any deviations. When pressure tests are scheduled, you witness and document the test, ensuring acceptance criteria are met and recorded.

    Afternoon: You log inspection results, issue and track non-conformances, and collaborate with construction and QA leads to recommend corrective actions. You prepare for upcoming client audits, confirm alignment with ASME, API, and project-specific standards, and support quality walkdowns, punch-list completion, and turnover documentation.

    • Confirm welder qualifications and that work follows approved WPS requirements.
    • Review ITPs and validate that all required inspections and tests are completed and documented.
    • Verify material traceability and maintain MTR documentation throughout fabrication and installation.
    • Witness and document hydro/pneumatic pressure testing per project criteria.
    • Maintain inspection reports, quality records, and nonconformance documentation with precision.
    • Partner with field teams to resolve quality issues and drive corrective/preventive actions.
    • Ensure adherence to ASME, API, and other project or client standards.
    • Support internal and client audits and participate in quality walkdowns, punch lists, and turnover activities.
