Master Plumber

We are seeking an experienced Massachusetts-licensed Industrial Plumber to work primarily from our Fall River operation. This is an industrial role, not a residential-service position. The ideal candidate has genuine manufacturing/process-piping experience and is comfortable with process water, chilled water, compressed air, chemical and utility piping, equipment tie-ins, troubleshooting, and plant shutdown work. Most work is local or regional, with periodic nationwide travel as project needs require. Key Responsibilities Install and modify process-water and chilled-water systems, chiller connections, cooling loops, headers, branch lines, and production-machine utility tie-ins. Install and modify compressed-air distribution, chemical feed/transfer piping, drains, wash systems, and other industrial utility piping. Work with PVC, CPVC, copper, galvanized, stainless steel, black steel, and other materials appropriate to the application. Perform cutting, threading, grooving, soldering, brazing, ProPress, MegaPress, Victaulic/mechanical joining, fit-up, and related pipefitting work. Read and interpret blueprints, P&IDs, isometric drawings, specifications, and field conditions; lay out work and execute to design intent and applicable code. Install valves, strainers, regulators, traps, instrumentation connections, supports, and related piping components. Pressure-test, troubleshoot, repair, and commission industrial piping and utility systems with minimal disruption to plant operations. Coordinate with millwright, electrical, controls, and other trades during machine installations, relocations, and shutdowns. Assist in mentoring apprentices and junior tradespeople and communicate job status, material needs, and schedule impacts to project leadership. Perform work in compliance with applicable plumbing codes, OSHA requirements, LOTO, confined space, chemical-handling, and Teknikor safety policies. Required Qualifications Valid Massachusetts Journeyman or Master Plumber's License. Minimum 2 years of hands-on industrial plumbing or process-pipefitting experience in manufacturing or industrial plant environments. Demonstrated experience with process/chilled water, compressed air, and industrial utility or process piping. Experience with multiple piping materials and joining methods, including threaded, grooved, pressed, soldered/brazed, and mechanical systems. Ability to read blueprints, P&IDs, isometrics, and technical specifications and work independently from drawings and field conditions. Strong knowledge of plumbing codes and safe work practices in active industrial facilities. Valid driver's license and willingness to travel periodically, approximately 30% depending on project needs. Preferred Qualifications Rhode Island plumbing license; dual MA/RI licensing is highly desirable. OSHA 10 or OSHA 30, Confined Space, First Aid/CPR. Welding or weld-prep / fit-up experience. Experience with chillers, cooling towers, machine utility tie-ins, chemical-resistant piping, or industrial facility buildouts. Why work for us? Primarily local and regional work: Most projects run out of our Fall River operation and across New England, so you're home most nights rather than away on extended rotations. Travel covered when it happens: On the occasions travel is required (approximately 30%, depending on project needs), Teknikor covers airfare, ground transportation, hotel expenses, and a daily per diem, and required travel time is paid. Established, growing employer: Over 55 years serving industrial manufacturers, with ongoing training and advancement opportunities.
