Piping Designer – EPC Power Generation Projects (Steam Turbine Generators)

We are seeking a skilled Piping Designer to support steam turbine generator (STG) projects within an EPC project environment. This role delivers constructible piping designs from concept through detailed engineering while supporting procurement and construction activities.

• Develop piping layouts and detailed designs for STG systems including main steam, reheat, extraction, auxiliary steam, condensate, and drains.
• Create and maintain 3D models and 2D drawings including GA drawings, isometrics, plans, sections, and details.
• Coordinate with piping engineers, stress analysts, civil/structural, electrical, I&C, procurement, vendors, and construction teams.
• Incorporate vendor data and turbine package drawings into project designs.
• Support clash detection, model reviews, and constructability assessments.
• Ensure compliance with ASME B31 piping codes and project specifications.
• Support procurement and respond to construction RFIs and field changes.
• Assist with pipe support layout and coordination.
• Participate in site visits, field walkdowns, and brownfield tie-ins.
• Maintain drawing revisions and document control per EPC procedures.

• Associate degree or technical diploma in Drafting, Design, or Mechanical Engineering Technology, or equivalent hands‑on piping design experience in lieu of a degree.
• 5+ years of piping design experience on power generation or heavy industrial EPC projects (3+ years with strong high-pressure steam experience will also be considered).
• Experience with high-pressure, high-temperature steam systems.
• Proficiency with Inventor, AutoCAD Plant 3D, AutoCAD, or similar 3D piping design software (e.g., CADWorx).
• Strong understanding of EPC execution phases.
• Knowledge of ASME B31 codes, piping materials, valves, fittings, and supports.
• Ability to read P&IDs, equipment data sheets, and vendor drawings.
• Strong organizational and communication skills.

• Experience with combined cycle, fossil, cogeneration, or renewable power EPC projects.
• Exposure to pipe stress analysis coordination and thermal growth considerations.
• Brownfield or retrofit project experience.
• Construction support or field engineering experience.
• Experience working with multi-office EPC teams.

• Competitive compensation with medical, dental, and vision coverage.
• 401(k) retirement plan with company match.
• Paid time off and paid holidays.
• Opportunity to work on EPC power generation projects.
• Collaborative, fast-paced project environment with direct mentorship from senior engineers and P.E.s.
• Career growth and advancement opportunities.

• Associate degree or technical diploma in Drafting, Design, or Mechanical Engineering Technology.
