Pipe Welder/Fabricator

Victaulic•McMinnville, TN

About The Position

This role involves various levels of pipe welding and fabrication, focusing on Victaulic standard and engineered products. The position requires proficiency in different welding processes (GMAW-P, GTAW, RMD) and adherence to ASME standards. Responsibilities range from machine setup and basic welding to advanced fabrication, rigging, crane operation, and mentoring. Level 1 focuses on Victaulic Standard Parts, including setup, upkeep, and welding certifications for various pipe materials and configurations. It also requires understanding shop drawings, weld symbols, and measurement devices. Level 2 builds upon Level 1 with additional certifications for different welding positions and processes, proficiency in rigging and crane operation, and welding of smaller and larger diameter Victaulic standard parts. Level 3 encompasses all Level 2 requirements and adds the ability to balance welding production, perform duties of a Level 1 Structural Welder, assist in trialing new part weldability, mentor junior welders, and possess advanced troubleshooting knowledge.
