Industrial Pipe Welder / Fabricator & Skid Builder

TRIVACO • Hebron, KY

6d

About The Position

We are seeking a highly skilled and versatile Industrial Pipe Welder / Fabricator to join our production and assembly team. The ideal candidate will be an expert in pressure piping systems, with solid secondary experience in structural steel fabrication. Additionally, you will play a key role in mechanical assembly—interpreting schematics to mount valves, wire/tube instrumentation, and build out complete, modular industrial skid packages.

Requirements

• 3–5+ years of industrial pipe welding and fitting experience (field or shop fabrication).
• Ability to pass standard pipe welding certifications (e.g., ASME Section IX, 6G position) is required.
• Strong proficiency in reading and interpreting isometric drawings, structural blueprints, and P&IDs.
• Excellent hand-eye coordination, precision measuring skills, and comfort working with pneumatic, hydraulic, or automated valve assemblies.
• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs, work in various physical positions (stooping, kneeling, reaching), and operate overhead cranes or forklifts safely.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with modular skid building or process equipment manufacturing is highly preferred.
• Previous structural AWS D1.1 certification is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Layout, fit, and weld carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy pressure piping systems.
• Perform high-quality welds using GTAW (TIG), SMAW (Stick) and GMAW (MIG) processes, ensuring deep penetration and clean finishes capable of passing non-destructive testing (NDT/X-ray).
• Cut, thread, bevel, and fit pipe precisely according to isometric drawings and P&IDs (Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams).
• Fabricate and weld heavy structural steel frames, bases, and supports for modular skid packages.
• Utilize FCAW (Flux-Core) or GMAW (MIG) for strong, structurally sound welds on structural channels, I-beams, and angles.
• Operate shop equipment safely, including bandsaws, grinders and torches.
• Perform mechanical assembly of completed modular skids, including mounting industrial valves, actuators, regulators, and manifolds.
• Install, align, and integrate process instrumentation (transmitters, gauges, flow meters).
• Run instrumentation tubing (stainless steel bending) and assist with basic mechanical/pneumatic hookups according to engineering schematics.
