Structural Welder (6gr)

**Position:** Structural Welder

**Location:** Florida Division

**Department:** Structural

**Employment Type:** Full-time

We are seeking a skilled Structural Welder with experience in fabrication and structural welding to join our team. The successful candidate will be responsible for ensuring welding processes and procedures are followed accurately, producing high-quality welds, and collaborating with team members to complete projects efficiently. This role requires proficiency in interpreting blueprints, welding symbols, and applying industry-standard techniques across various materials and positions.

• Verify welding processes and procedures required for each project in coordination with the Shop Foreman and QA/QC Representative. Ensure documentation is noted on fabrication travelers and drawings.
• Assist with and verify fit-up of components prior to weld-out as necessary.
• Complete and inspect all weld passes to meet required specifications and standards.
• Accurately interpret drawings, welding symbols, and understand weld maps and Welding Procedure Specification (WPS) requirements.
• Select appropriate welding wire and adjust welding machines according to job specifications.
• Operate arc gouging equipment as needed.
• Properly use hand tools, grinders, and welding equipment with safety and precision.
• Assist welders and fitters in cleaning, moving, clamping, holding, and preparing workpieces.
• Perform welding on carbon, alloy, and stainless steel materials, including plates, sheets, shapes, and fabricated steel parts.
• Produce welds in flat, horizontal, and vertical positions using gas-shielded flux core wire welding procedures, ensuring strength and appearance meet acceptable standards.
• Clean completed welds using grinders or brushes where required.
• Apply appropriate welding sequences to minimize shrinkage or distortion during fabrication.
• Inspect and maintain welding equipment (e.g., welding machines, leads, flux-core boxes, grinders) at the start of every shift.
• Clean and stencil/stamp completed welds per specifications, ensuring each weld is marked appropriately (3/8" from the weld and every three feet along the weld length).

• Minimum of 2 years of experience in fabrication (preferred).
• Demonstrated experience in FCAW (Flux Core Arc Welding) procedures, including 6GR.
• Experience with welding subsea equipment is highly desirable.
• Strong understanding of structural fabrication and welding techniques.

• Proficiency in reading and interpreting engineering drawings and welding symbols.
• Knowledge of welding processes and material properties for carbon, alloy, and stainless steel.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing high-quality work.
• Effective communication and teamwork skills.
• Commitment to safety standards and proper equipment handling.

• Embrace, lead, and demonstrate "Acadian F.I.R.S.T." - Vision & Mission Statement as fundamental core values.
• Demonstrate visible leadership and support proactive safety processes (JSA, Time Out & TEAM BBS Observations) to achieve an incident-free workplace and advance our safety culture.
• Adhere to all Health, Safety & Environmental (HSE) Management System policies, procedures, safe work practices, and client-specific regulatory requirements.
• Make a personal commitment and be accountable for HSE results, driving toward the achievement of defined goals. Clearly communicate these goals through direct reports, while coaching, mentoring, and empowering others to achieve desired outcomes.
• Conduct periodic quality assessments of HSE processes to enhance personal coaching and mentoring effectiveness and demonstrate ownership in the successful implementation of HSE programs.
