Coded Welder (6G, ASME IX)

You'll cut, fit and weld steel to drawing in a busy stainless steel equipment manufacturer in Tembisa. If you learn fast and don't mind being shown things twice, you'll settle in within a few weeks.

This post is in Tembisa (Gauteng). Please only apply if you can travel there daily.

• Sign off your weld map and traceability sheets for each spool
• Read fabrication drawings and cutting lists before you mark out plate
• Grind and repair welds flagged by the QC inspector
• Weld carbon steel pipe in the 6G position using GTAW root and SMAW fill
• Follow the welding procedure specification for every joint you weld

• Boilermaker or welder trade test certificate, or current SAIW welder qualification
• Willing to work shutdowns, long shifts and weekends when the plant is down
• Medical fitness certificate for industrial sites, or willing to get one
• Valid welder coding to ISO 9606-1 or ASME IX in the processes the job needs

• Duplex or chrome-moly welding experience
• SAIW welding inspector course, even at Level 1
• Experience on structural work to AWS D1.1

• Coding renewals paid by the employer
• Shutdown bonus and site allowance for work away from home
• Leather welding PPE and auto-darkening helmet supplied

• List each coding separately with the standard, process, position and expiry date. "Coded welder" on its own tells a recruiter nothing.
• Expect a practical welding test on the first day. Bring your own gloves and chipping hammer so you feel at home.
