  • Ensure statutory and regulatory compliance throughout the construction phase.
  • Client & Third-Party Coordination

  • Minimum 1015 years of QA/QC experience, with at least 5 years in a leadership role involving pressure vessel construction or heavy industrial projects.
  • Strong knowledge of ASME Section VIII, API 650/620, ISO 9001, and site QA/QC procedures.

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
