Job description

Overview

As an Associate Design Engineer, you will design piping systems for Solar Turbine Construction Services products and Oil & Gas projects, including gas compression stations, power generation projects and BOP systems. You will work with a cross-functional team across FEED, detail engineering, procurement, in-house fabrication and commissioning activities.

What you'll do

  • Lead piping design efforts supporting industrial gas turbine packaging, gas compression and power generation projects, and BOP systems engineering and design.
  • Demonstrate designing, implementing and maintaining piping systems within the Oil & Gas industry.
  • Apply discipline-related industry codes and standards, including ASME and API, across engineering specifications and vendor documentation.
  • Perform line sizing, thickness calculation, pressure drop calculation and equipment sizing calculations.
  • Prepare line lists, valve lists, equipment lists and piping material specifications.
  • Route piping and model equipment using Autodesk Plant 3D.
  • Develop and maintain intelligent piping models in Autodesk Revit, including piping systems, equipment, fittings, valves, accessories and pipe supports.
  • Create and manage Revit piping families, shared parameters, project templates, view templates, filters, schedules and tagging standards.
  • Produce coordinated piping layouts, plans, sections, elevations, spool or fabrication-ready views and quantity schedules from the Revit model.
  • Perform multidisciplinary BIM coordination by linking Revit and other discipline models, conducting interference reviews and supporting clash resolution through Navisworks.
  • Apply model quality checks for system connectivity, routing accuracy, slopes, elevations, clearances, maintainability, constructability and compliance with project BIM standards.
  • Perform pipe support and support engineering activities.
  • Extract piping isometrics from 3D models and update isometrics for IFC.
  • Create 2D drawings, including piping plans and elevations and equipment layouts.
  • Prepare MTOs and BOMs from piping 3D models.
  • Provide virtual technical support for the shop floor for engineered orders and commissioning support.
  • Continuously improve design technical knowledge, efficiency, quality and productivity.
  • Adopt global developments in EPC Oil & Gas project technologies.
  • Coordinate linked discipline models and support clash detection and resolution using Revit and Navisworks.
  • Check model connectivity, routing, slopes, elevations, clearances, data quality and drawing consistency.
  • Generate coordinated piping plans, sections, elevations, details, schedules and quantity outputs from the BIM model.

What you'll need

  • Minimum 6-8 years of industry experience in engineering, design execution and associated applications.
  • Significant, demonstrated results leading piping design efforts supporting industrial gas turbine packaging and associated gas compression and power generation projects and BOP systems engineering and design.
  • Knowledge of piping design codes and standards, including ASME B31.3 and B31.8.
  • Experience applying standards across engineering specifications and vendor documentation.
  • Comprehensive familiarity with CAD software packages supporting piping design.
  • Broad knowledge of design and drafting techniques, including diagram generation, isometric creation and detailed drawing creation.
  • Knowledge of pipe supports and support engineering.
  • Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering from an accredited engineering institute.
  • Well versed with Oil and Gas EPC projects with exposure to multidisciplinary engineering teams.
  • Knowledge of Autodesk Revit MEP for piping modelling, routing, system creation and coordinated drawing production.
  • Ability to create and modify Revit piping families, connectors, parameters, schedules, tags, filters and templates.
  • Knowledge of BIM coordination workflows, linked models, worksharing, model health checks, clash detection and issue resolution.
  • Ability to review Revit models and drawings for design intent, constructability, maintainability, data completeness and compliance with project standards.
  • Working experience with AutoCAD Plant 3D, E3D, CAESAR II, AutoPIPE and Autodesk Revit MEP.
  • Working knowledge of creating and modifying piping systems, equipment, fittings, accessories and supports using appropriate Revit tools.
  • Working knowledge of developing or updating Revit families, connectors, parameters, schedules, tags, filters and view templates.
  • Working knowledge of coordinating linked discipline models and supporting clash detection and resolution using Revit and Navisworks.
  • Working knowledge of checking model connectivity, routing, slopes, elevations, clearances, data quality and drawing consistency.
  • Working knowledge of generating coordinated piping plans, sections, elevations, details, schedules and quantity outputs from the BIM model.
  • Basic understanding of data gathering and analysis tools, techniques and processes.
  • Basic understanding of analytical thinking techniques and tools.
  • Basic understanding of decision-making processes and associated tools and techniques.
  • Working knowledge of effective communication concepts, tools and techniques.
  • Basic understanding of technical excellence and structured approaches to analyzing and resolving technical problems.
  • Working knowledge of the types, features and tools of 3D software and 3D model production.
