Piping Walkdown Designer

Piping Walkdown Designer

Odessa, TX

Play an integral role in ensuring that piping systems are accurately verified, documented, and transitioned into reliable operational assets. You will operate as the critical interface between design, construction, and operations-walking systems in the field, validating installation against drawings, and developing accurate as-built documentation. This is a highly technical, field-focused role where your attention to detail and practical expertise directly influence safety, operability, and long-term asset performance.

Purpose of the role

Play an integral role in providing field engineering and design expertise following construction to ensure accurate as-built documentation of facilities. You will support operations, maintenance, and future project planning by validating installed systems, identifying discrepancies, and ensuring that design documentation reflects real-world conditions.

You will be responsible for:

You will conduct field-based verification and walkdown activities, ensuring piping systems are accurately captured and any safety or operational concerns are clearly identified and addressed. Key accountabilities include:

• Conducting detailed piping system walkdowns to verify installation against issued-for-construction drawings, isometrics, and P&IDs
• Comparing field conditions to design intent, identifying discrepancies, constructability issues, and operational risks
• Marking up drawings with field revisions to accurately reflect as-built conditions
• Documenting safety concerns, operational constraints, and system deficiencies observed during field verification
• Coordinating closely with piping design teams, including offshore teams, to ensure accurate incorporation of redlines and as-built data into design deliverables
• Supporting safe execution of all field activities by identifying hazards and ensuring compliance with project and site safety requirements
• Contributing to quality and completions processes by ensuring piping systems are properly documented and ready to support operations and future modifications

This role is performed primarily on-site and may involve:

• Working outdoors in varying weather conditions, including extreme heat, cold, wind, or precipitation
• Exposure to remote locations where immediate assistance may be limited
• Working at heights or in confined or restricted access areas
• Exposure to noise, heavy equipment, and active construction or operating environments
• Irregular schedules or extended hours based on project requirements

To perform the essential functions of this role, you will be required to:

• Walk, stand, and climb for extended periods throughout the workday
• Work in personal protective equipment for extended durations
• Maintain situational awareness in safety-sensitive environments
• Perform tasks requiring manual dexterity, coordination, and balance

This is a safety-sensitive role in a potentially remote environment where the ability to perform work safely, independently, and as part of a team is critical.
