About the role

Senior piping design role focused on rebuilding piping design workflows using software, automation, and AI tools to improve modeling, routing, and documentation for refinery-scale projects.

Qualifications

  • BS in Mechanical Engineering or a closely related field. New graduates are welcome. Equivalent hands-on design experience works in place of the degree
  • Technical depth. You reason from first principles about geometry, loads, and flow instead of pattern-matching to the last project
  • 3D design fluency. Real models and assemblies in a serious CAD environment. SolidWorks, Inventor, NX, CATIA, or Creo, or plant tools like AutoCAD Plant 3D, CADWorx, E3D, or SP3D
  • An automation instinct, with evidence. You have looked at a repetitive engineering task, decided it should be scripted, and actually tried
  • Willingness to build software with modern AI coding tools. No programming background required. You do need to be the engineer who picks up Claude Code or Cursor and ships something useful in the first month
  • Excitement about a new way of working
  • Judgment about when to automate. And when a script is a distraction from getting the design out the door
  • Clear writing. You will be documenting workflows other people follow
