Pipe Fitter: Precision Fabrication & Relocation Support

Ponca City Development Authority; Ponca City (OK); On-site; USD 30,000 - 47,000; Full time

Benefits offered by this job

Relocation assistance up to $4500

Job summary

MJ&H in Ponca City, OK is seeking a Pipe Fitter to lay out, fit, and assemble fabricated pipe systems and spool assemblies from drawings and isometrics. You will establish dimensions, orientation, and joint prep so assemblies are ready for welding, with relocation assistance available up to $4500.

You will read drawings, verify components, perform layout calculations, and coordinate with pipe welders to ensure proper fit-up and efficient production in a shop environment.

Qualifications

• Experience in pipe fitting or fabrication preferred.
• Ability to read pipe isometrics and spool drawings.
• Knowledge of pipe sizes, schedules, fittings and flanges.
• Demonstrated accurate layout and fit-up.
• Basic tack-welding ability preferred.

Responsibilities

• Read and interpret pipe fabrication drawings, spool drawings, isometrics, dimensions, elevations, orientation information, and weld requirements.
• Identify and verify pipe, elbows, tees, reducers, flanges, couplings, branch components, and other fittings required for each assembly.
• Calculate and establish center-to-center, face-to-face, end-to-end, takeout, offset, and other required fabrication dimensions.
• Lay out and fit straight runs, elbows, tees, reducers, flanges, branches, offsets, and rolling offsets as required by the drawing.
• Orient fittings, branches, flanges, bolt holes, and other components to the correct rotation and position.
• Verify flange alignment, face orientation, elevation, overall length, and assembly geometry before tack-up and welding.
• Prepare pipe ends and joints as required, including checking bevels, root openings, hi-low/alignment, cleanliness, and fit-up.
• Use levels, squares, wraparounds, center finders, tape measures, angle-finding tools, and other pipe-fitting tools accurately.
• Tack pipe and fittings securely while maintaining required dimensions and alignment.
• Verify material identification, component size, schedule/thickness, fitting type, and drawing revision before assembly.
• Verify material heat numbers and maintain heat-number traceability throughout fabrication, ensuring required heat numbers are accurately recorded and match the material being used before components are incorporated into an assembly.
• Follow safe practices for rigging, lifting, clamping, grinding, torch work, and tack welding.
• Identify drawing conflicts, incorrect material, dimensional problems, or fit-up issues and obtain clarification before proceeding.
• Coordinate closely with pipe welders so joints are properly prepared, accessible, aligned, and ready to weld.
• Maintain accurate fabrication while working efficiently to support shop production.
