- Perform tubing layout, bending, and installation (stainless steel and copper) for instrument air and process systems, ensuring clean, leak‑free, and code‑compliant installations in the field
- Read and interpret P&IDs, loop drawings, wiring diagrams, and control schematics to execute work accurately and efficiently on-site
- Perform loop checks and actively support commissioning and startup activities, including troubleshooting and resolving instrumentation and control issues in live field environments
- Work in close coordination with foremen, project managers, engineers, and other trades on-site to maintain schedule, productivity, and quality
- Adapt to changing site conditions, project phases, and priorities while maintaining precision and workmanship
- Maintain a high standard of safety by following company procedures, completing Field Level Hazard Assessments (FLHAs), and complying with all site safety requirements
