• Populate RBI templates, data sheets, and risk models in accordance with API/DNV methodologies and project‑specific procedures
• Extract, interpret, and validate engineering data from native CAD files including PFDs, P&IDs, UFDs, isometrics, and equipment datasheets
• Identify and mark‑up corrosion loops, circuits, CMLs, and inspection points directly on drawings and digital models
• Support degradation mechanism assignment by reviewing process conditions, materials, and operating envelopes
• Assist in developing inspection strategies, PoF/CoF inputs, and risk ranking outputs under the guidance of senior engineers
• Perform data mining and data cleansing from EPC deliverables, vendor packages, and operational records
• Upload, structure, and validate integrity data within RBI/IDMS platforms (Antea, Meridium/APM, Synergi, Credo, Aware, etc.)

• Experience with RBI/IDMS platforms is essential (e.g., Antea, Meridium/APM, DNV Synergi, Credo, Intertek Aware)
• API 580 qualified or minimum 5 years proven experience in executing RBI Assessments
• API 581 training is an advantage
• AMPP/NACE certifications (Corrosion or CP) are beneficial but not essential
• API 571 familiarity is preferred for degradation mechanism assignment
• Proficiency in reading and interpreting engineering drawings, including PFDs, P&IDs, UFDs, and isometrics
• Ability to extract, validate, and structure technical data for RBI models and IDMS platforms
• Familiarity with degradation mechanisms, corrosion loops, CML strategies, and inspection planning principles
• Working knowledge of CMMS hierarchy (SAP, Maximo, or equivalent) is beneficial
