• Review welding procedures, technical specifications and project requirements.
• Support preparation and review of Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS) and Procedure Qualification Records (PQR).
• Coordinate welding documentation and qualification records, and review TIG and pipe welding requirements against project standards.
• Support coordination of ultrasonic testing (UT) and other non-destructive testing (NDT) activities.
• Review inspection reports, welding records and quality documentation, and help identify defects, non-conformities and quality concerns.
• Coordinate with welding supervisors, quality control personnel, inspectors and project engineers, and monitor quality documentation and inspection progress.
• Support corrective action tracking, maintain inspection records and technical reports, and assist with quality assurance and compliance monitoring.
• Provide technical recommendations, support remote technical meetings and project progress reviews.

• Minimum 3 years of relevant experience in welding technology, pipe welding, welding inspection or industrial quality support preferred.
• Diploma, bachelor's degree or equivalent in Welding Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Fabrication or a related field preferred.
• Good understanding of TIG welding and pipe welding, and knowledge of UT, NDT and welding inspection principles.
• Familiarity with WPS, PQR, welder qualification records and welding quality documentation.
• Understanding of welding defects, inspection findings and corrective action procedures.
• Strong technical documentation, analytical and problem-solving skills, good communication, attention to detail and ability to work independently with remote teams.

Required skills

• TIG welding and pipe welding
• Ultrasonic testing (UT) and non-destructive testing (NDT)
• WPS, PQR and welder qualification records
• Industrial codes and standards such as ASME, AWS or API (an advantage)
• Relevant welding or NDT certifications (CSWIP, AWS, ASNT) are advantageous but not mandatory unless a project requires them

What we offer

• Flexible part-time working arrangements with a fully remote setup.
• Exposure to welding standards, inspection processes and project documentation.
• Collaboration with engineering, fabrication and quality assurance professionals.
