Pipefitter II

Position Overview As a Pipefitter II, you'll take on increased independence in commercial mechanical service and installation, handling routine to moderately complex piping tasks for wet-side HVAC systems (hydronic heating, chilled water, domestic water, process piping) in office buildings, hospitals, schools, and industrial facilities. Building on entry-level skills, you'll perform repairs, replacements, layout, assembly, testing, and troubleshooting with growing confidence, while assisting senior pipefitters on advanced jobs and beginning to guide Level I team members. Our people-first culture supports your mid-level progression with hands‑on training, certifications, mentorship, and clear advancement opportunities, enabling you to develop expertise and contribute to safe, reliable, and sustainable piping systems nationwide. Duties And Responsibilities Independently repair, replace, and maintain piping systems, pipe supports, valves, strainers, pumps, and related equipment for commercial heating, cooling, and hydronic applications. Perform layout, cutting, threading, grooving, fitting, welding/brazing (as qualified), and assembly of piping per blueprints, specifications, and codes with increasing independence. Conduct pressure testing, leak detection, flushing, system checks, and basic balancing to ensure performance, safety, and compliance. Assist in (and increasingly lead portions of) advanced installations, modifications, and troubleshooting; coordinate with other trades for sequencing and integration. Lead standard service/repair calls: assess on-site issues, communicate with customers about problems/solutions/timelines, coordinate parts/materials, execute work, and follow up for satisfaction. Document work accurately (work orders, service reports, photos, as‑builts, recommendations) and maintain records for billing, warranty, and quality tracking. Mentor Level I pipefitters by demonstrating techniques, safety practices, and best methods; assist senior pipefitters (Level III+) on complex tasks. Maintain clean, organized work areas, vehicles, tools, and PPE; adhere to all safety protocols, codes, and company standards. Supervisory Responsibilities None (mid-level individual contributor role; provides informal guidance and mentoring to Level I pipefitters under supervision of senior pipefitters or leads). Requirements/Qualifications Experience: 3–5 years in piping installation, repair, maintenance, or construction (commercial/industrial or HVAC/wet‑side preferred); demonstrated ability to work independently on routine to moderately complex tasks. Education: High school diploma or GED required; trade school, vocational training, apprenticeship, or equivalent preferred. Certifications/Licenses: Valid driver's license and clean driving record required; welding/brazing certification (e.g., AWS) a plus; OSHA 10/30‑hour certification encouraged (company support provided). Physical Demands: Ability to regularly lift and carry up to 50 lbs, climb ladders/scaffolding/stairs, work in confined spaces or at heights, bend/kneel/crouch, reach overhead, and use tools/equipment for extended periods; frequent standing, walking, manual dexterity, and physical stamina required. Work Environment/Safety: Primarily field-based in commercial/industrial settings (indoor/outdoor, mechanical rooms, rooftops, varying weather); exposure to noise, dust, heights, welding hazards, chemicals, and confined‑space risks; must strictly adhere to OSHA regulations, conduct hazard identification, and wear required personal protective equipment (PPE) such as hard hats, safety glasses, gloves, harnesses, and steel‑toed boots at all times—safety is our top priority and non‑negotiable. This is a safety‑sensitive position. Occasional regional travel within assigned market or on‑call rotations may be required as business needs dictate. Required Skills Proficient pipefitting techniques (threading, grooving, fitting, welding/brazing basics, pressure testing, leak detection). Blueprint reading, layout, and interpretation of piping drawings/specs. Safety awareness (OSHA 10/30 preferred), teamwork, and effective communication with crew, foremen, and customers. Troubleshooting and repair of routine wet‑side systems (hydronic, chilled/hot water, domestic). Documentation/reporting, multitasking, and eagerness to learn advanced piping/HVAC concepts.
