Senior Piping Designer

Overview

As a Piping Designer, you will support a group of engineers and designers to develop 3D models and related construction drawings for industrial manufacturing facilities. The piping designer will be responsible for understanding the project scope, overall schedule, deliverables, milestones, manhour budgets, industry standards, applicable codes, and procedures.

• Determine line count and estimated isometric quantities based on P&IDs.
• Be knowledgeable of client procedures, project procedures, and specifications.
• Identify and request information in the form of a 'Needs List' to maintain the schedule.

Utilize a 3D model (AVEVA E3D/Navisworks) review software to monitor design quality and progress.
• Review and approve deliverables prior to issue.
• Coordinate the design effort with other engineering and design disciplines.
• Ensure deliverable verification procedures are followed.
• Piping drawing checking and verification experience in the office and in the field is a plus.
• Previous AVEVA 3D experience developing Piping Models, Pipe Supports, Equipment Models, Isometric and Orthographic Drawing extraction is a plus.
• Develop general arrangements of plant facilities, structures, and equipment considering safe maintenance and construction while interfacing with all engineering and design disciplines.
• Field design experience with the capability to perform field walk downs using P&IDs, locating tie points dimensionally, and routing pipe through existing facilities; identify pipe support types and convey field data to the office AVEVA E3D model.
• Projects may utilize Laser Scanning; experience using scans within AVEVA E3D is a plus.
• Experience with executing projects within existing facilities with many obstructions and other design constraints.

• Independently analyze situations and data to determine the best course of action and make positive and active contributions to assist the organization in achieving its key financial and growth goals.
• Involved in high level technical interface discussions with clients and sub-contractors to determine the root cause of problems and develop effective solutions to solve them.

The Piping Designer will use E3D from an office location or project location to oversee one or more projects at a time. The role may require working in jobsite conditions and being able to cope with and withstand these conditions.

• E3D/PDMS proficiency and a strong history of working with engineers & designers to produce complex construction drawings.
• Associate's degree and a minimum of 8 years relevant experience in the EPC industry.
• Expertise using AutoCAD and Navisworks preferred.
• Strong orientation towards delivering projects within challenging budget & schedule parameters.
• Occasional overnight travel to client locations based on project requirements may be required.
