The Welding Engineer applies their conceptual knowledge of Welding and, with a moderate level of guidance and direction from colleagues and leadership, is responsible for solving a range of straightforward Welding problems. They will be responsible for analyzing possible solutions using standard procedures and building knowledge of the company, processes, and customers. The Welding Engineer understands critical business drivers and applies this knowledge to solve problems in straightforward situations by analyzing possible solutions using technical experience, judgment, and precedents.
Our ingenuity fuels daily life. Together, we've forged some of the most trusted partnerships across the energy value chain to make what was once just an idea a reality: laying subsea infrastructure thousands of feet below sea level, installing platforms hundreds of miles from shore, using our expertise to design and build offshore wind infrastructure, and reshaping the onshore landscape to deliver the energy products the world needs safely and sustainably.
For more than 100 years, we've been making the impossible possible. Today, we're driving the energy transition with more than 30,000 of the brightest minds across 54 countries.
