About the role

Welder II LAV – ASME Pressure Vessels (LAV)

Location: Equipment & Assembly Facility – Pittsburgh, PA

Pay: $33.00/hr. starting

Bonus: $1,000 New-Hire Retention BonusCalgon Carbon | A Kuraray Company

Why This Role Stands OutIf you're an experienced welder who takes pride in code-quality welds, pressure vessels, and complex fabrication, this role offers work that challenges your skill—not repetitive production welding. At Calgon Carbon, our welders fabricate large ASME pressure vessels and piping systems that support critical air and water purification solutions used around the world.

What You'll Be Doing:

Perform ASME code welding on pressure vessels, piping, and structural components
Weld using FCAW, GTAW, GMAW, SMAW, and SAWWork with carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys
Read and interpret engineering drawings and weld procedures
Complete ASME weld logs and quality documentation
Pass non-destructive testing (NDT) for pressure-retaining welds
Use overhead cranes, jib cranes, and forklifts safely
Inspect and repair welds to meet code and quality standards
This is hands-on, high-skill welding—not light fabrication or bench work.
Weld Test & Certifications
On-site weld test required as part of the interview process
Test is aligned with ASME Section IX procedures
Designed to reflect the actual work performed in the shop
Prior ASME code welding experience required
Company-paid certification and recertification to CCC welding procedures
We believe great welders should show their skill, not just talk about it.

What We're Looking For:

2+ years of experience welding pressure vessels or pipe (FCAW required)
High school diploma or trade school certification (welding preferred)
Ability to pass on-site weld qualification testing
Strong attention to safety, quality, and documentation
ScheduleRotating shift operation (details reviewed during the screening process)
Overtime opportunities as business needs require
Pay, Bonus & Benefits$33.00/hr. starting pay

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
