Senior Piping Material Engineer

Purpose

• As Senior Piping Material Engineer, you are responsible for delivering safe, reliable, and sustainable engineering solutions for the assigned piping scope. You lead the preparation of specifications, technical evaluations, and coordination activities, ensuring compliance with project requirements, international codes, and company standards. You contribute to the project success by optimizing designs and mentoring engineers

Responsibilities

• You are responsible for the selection of methods and procedures, performance of the work, and optimization of the design within the scope of the specifications, in compliance with international codes, company and industry standards and regulations (including ASME B31.3, B31.4, B31.8, ASTM, API, BS, MSS‑SP, and NACE).
• You perform piping material–related calculations, including pipe wall thickness calculations, in accordance with applicable design codes and project specifications.
• You prepare, review, and develop piping material specifications, valve material specifications, specialty item datasheets, piping bulk Material Take-Offs (MTOs), and manual valve Material Take-Offs (MTOs)
• You prepare material requisitions and execute procurement engineering activities, including technical bid evaluations, technical offer reviews, vendor clarification technical queries (TQs), and support of vendor selection and finalization in line with project and client requirements.
• You apply thorough knowledge of valve types, functional requirements, and applicable testing requirements for piping components and manual valves.
• You are responsible for proactively planning and completing activities and deliverables within the agreed time frame and budget, as well as for ensuring system interfaces.
• You coordinate with vendors, subcontractors, and third parties to ensure timely document review, manufacturing and procurement support, and high‑quality technical deliverables.
• You ensure applicable lessons learnt are used, understanding the change impact within and across project system boundaries.
• You communicate effectively and collaborate within global teams and clients in a professional and result-oriented manner
• You ensure effective interdisciplinary coordination, integrating piping material engineering deliverables with piping, process, mechanical, and procurement disciplines.
• You may be assigned as Package Engineer with technical responsibility for the design, procurement, and manufacture of assigned packages.
• You lead engineers on assigned scope and act as Discipline Lead where required.

Education

• Minimum BE/BTech Degree in Mechanical engineering from recognized institute or in relevant field.

Experience

• 5 to 10 years material engineering experience in the Oil & Gas industry, preferably offshore (FPSO or fixed platforms).
• Knowledge of piping materials, international piping codes, and material standards.
• Familiarity with Excel and exposure to Aveva Engineering or ERM is an advantage.
• Experience as a Package Engineer for piping packages and managing other discipline packages interfaces and Brownfield projects Material scope handling is an advantage.
• Team spirit, good communication skills, strong analytical skills, curious and motivated to propose and/or explore new ideas.
