Wood PLC

JOB DESCRIPTION

Wood is currently recruiting for a Mechanical Designer with experience in the chemical manufacturing industry. You will be responsible for design work supporting facility-based projects in an active chemical manufacturing plant as part of that plant's capital project's group.

Authorization to work permanently in the U.S. without sponsorship required.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Perform design and drafting of process systems including high pressure (~40 KPSI) process systems such as high-pressure piping, valves, and tubing.
• Complete designs requiring considerable field design/drafting experience and the use of mathematical and computer skills to create functional and effective designs.
• Work from sketches and verbal information supplied by engineers, process area representatives, and others to prepare designs that meet the process needs and constructability requirements using independent judgment in selecting and interpreting data based on knowledge of the design intent and using required information from engineer's drawings & sketches, manufacturer's catalogues, technical guides, codes, standards, SEPs, RAGAGEPs, field survey notes, etc.
• Develop mechanical design packages with complete sets of mechanical drawings which focus on clearness, completeness accurate geometric dimensioning and tolerancing of the design, and drafting presentation.
• Interface with other disciplines as required to efficiently develop mechanical design deliverables.
• Keep the project leader and team informed of progress, design issues, and/or changes that might impact schedule or man-hour budgets.
• Review other designer's work to assure compliance with engineering design sketches and calculations, applicable design codes, fabrication and constructability, industry standards, clearness, completeness/ dimensional accuracy of the design, and drafting presentation.
• Support and participate in activities that enhance the current Safety Culture at the Site.

QUALIFICATIONS
