Welding Inspection:
Perform thorough visual inspections of welded joints to ensure proper workmanship, compliance with blueprints, and adherence to welding codes and standards (e.g., ASME, AWS).
Conduct non-destructive testing (NDT) such as ultrasonic testing (UT), magnetic particle testing (MT), dye penetrant testing (PT), and radiographic testing (RT), as required.
Welding Procedure Compliance:
Review and verify that all welding procedures comply with industry codes, standards, and client specifications. Ensure adherence to welding procedure specifications (WPS) and ensure they are followed during fabrication.
Welder Qualification and Certification:
Ensure all welders are properly qualified and certified to perform specific welding tasks according to relevant industry standards and codes.
Maintain up-to-date records of welder qualifications, certifications, and related documentation.
Documentation & Reporting:
Maintain detailed records of inspections, test results, and welding reports.
Prepare and submit quality reports, including inspection findings and recommendations for corrective actions, to the Quality Control Manager or relevant departments.

Previous experience in quality control or welding inspection is highly desirable.
Certifications:
Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) certification from the American Welding Society (AWS) or equivalent is highly preferred.
Certification in non-destructive testing (NDT) methods such as ultrasonic, magnetic particle, or radiographic testing is a plus.
Technical Skills:
Strong knowledge of welding procedures, welding codes and standards (ASME, AWS, API), and welding techniques.
Familiarity with welding machines, tools, and safety equipment.
Experience in interpreting engineering drawings, blueprints, and weld symbols.
Attention to Detail:
Exceptional attention to detail with the ability to identify welding defects, perform precise measurements, and ensure adherence to quality standards.
