We are looking for a competent and proactive Mid-Level Boiler Engineer with practical experience in the design, analysis, and code compliance of boilers and pressure vessels in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC). This role bridges the gap between junior design support and senior engineering leadership, contributing to technical design work, code interpretation, documentation, and manufacturing support for pressure-retaining equipment.
Perform mechanical design and engineering calculations for boilers, pressure vessels, and heat exchangers per ASME Sections I, IV, and VIII (primarily Div. 1).
Select materials, define design pressures, and ensure proper thickness calculations, corrosion allowances, and stress limits.
Prepare detailed manufacturing drawings and technical specifications using CAD and design software.
Ensure all designs conform to applicable codes and standards including ASME BPVC, NBIC, API, and local regulations.
Prepare and review Manufacturer’s Data Reports (MDRs), welding documentation (WPS, PQR), and inspection plans.
Coordinate with Authorized Inspectors (AIs) during inspections and code stamping activities.
Support fabrication and assembly processes by responding to shop queries, providing field engineering support, and reviewing vendor deliverables.
Participate in technical reviews and risk assessments (e.g., design reviews, hazard analysis, FMEA).
Review supplier data sheets and verify compliance with technical requirements.
Assist in planning and execution of hydrostatic tests, non-destructive testing (NDT), and post-weld heat treatment (PWHT).
Participate in quality inspections, witnessing of tests, and generation of inspection reports.
Propose improvements in design practices, documentation workflows, and cost-saving initiatives.
Stay current with updates to ASME and industry codes, standards, and best practices.
Mentor junior engineers and provide peer reviews of their work.
Education:
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or related discipline.
Training or certification in ASME BPVC application is preferred (e.g., ASME, NBIC courses).
Experience:
3–7 years of hands-on experience in pressure vessel or boiler engineering.
Proven experience with ASME Section I and/or Section VIII Div. 1 design and compliance.
Experience in pressure equipment used in industries such as power, oil & gas, chemical, or manufacturing.
Technical Skills:
Proficiency with design software such as PV Elite, Compress, or equivalent pressure vessel tools.
Solid working knowledge of CAD software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Inventor).
Understanding of welding processes, inspection techniques, and material specifications (ASTM/ASME standards).
Experience with quality management systems, inspection documentation, and shop support.
Strong technical knowledge and engineering judgment.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Effective at time management and multi-tasking in fast-paced project environments.
High attention to detail and adherence to code/regulatory requirements.
Team player with ability to collaborate across departments (QA/QC, manufacturing, procurement).
Office-based role with regular travel to fabrication shops and inspection sites.
Must be able to work in industrial environments during field visits and inspections.
Use of personal protective equipment (PPE) required on shop floors or at customer sites.
