The posting

Job Description PCI Marine is seeking experienced habitability and joiner (HAB) Journeymen to join our West Coast Marine operations supporting Navy and Commercial ship repair. The Journeyman Sheet Metal Mechanic is an experienced, hands-on craft professional who independently lays out and installs shipboard sheet metal and joiner work in berthing, sanitary, galley and other living spaces: joiner panels, honeycomb panels, false overheads, ventilation ductwork and related HAB components. The emphasis is field installation, with sheet metal modified and fitted in place where shipboard conditions call for it. The position requires journeyman-level accuracy, productivity and problem-solving in congested shipboard spaces. Requirements

Ability to read and interpret technical documents, including but not limited to:

Perform precise field measurements, layout and fit-up from reference lines, elevations and drawings; verify dimensions before cutting material.

Ability to install and assemble:

Joiner panels: metal joiner bulkhead panels, joiner doors and frames, trim, channels and closure pieces, set plumb, aligned and secured to the joiner system drawing.

Honeycomb panels: aluminum and Nomex-core honeycomb bulkhead and overhead panels, including cutting to size, edge closures, inserts and fastening to the drawing and manufacturer requirements.

False overheads: overhead panels, hangers, support framing and trim, with removable access panels located at valves, cable and vent components above.

Ventilation: rectangular and round duct, fittings, hangers, brackets, dampers, access doors, terminals and flashing.

HAB metal components: closure plates, light-gauge panels, flashing and custom field pieces.

Lay out panel and overhead installations around existing piping, cable, ventilation and lighting while keeping required access and clearances.

Modify and field-fit ductwork and sheet metal where existing conditions differ from the drawings, including simple flat patterns for field pieces.

Cut, notch, drill, fasten and seal sheet metal and panel materials using appropriate field methods and tooling.

Identify drawing conflicts and interferences with structure, piping, electrical equipment and other systems; bring proposed field resolutions to the foreman or project team for approval before deviating from approved requirements.

Understand dimensional tolerances, attachment methods and workmanship expectations; avoid damage to adjacent ship systems and finishes.

Check completed work for alignment, panel joints, support spacing, secure fastening, clearance, accessibility and readiness for inspection.

Safely use the required hand tools, power tools, access equipment and material-handling devices within training and authorization.

Coordinate day-to-day installation interfaces with other crafts and report material shortages, access restrictions, rework and progress to the assigned foreman.

Maintain a clean work area, protect surrounding equipment, observe foreign material exclusion controls and follow established shipboard safety procedures.

Able to obtain and maintain the shipyard and military base access required for assigned projects.

Travel to other job sites, up and down the West Coast, as assigned.

This position is safety sensitive. Preferred

Experience with DDG-class or other U.S. Navy berthing, sanitary and ventilation installations.

Experience installing NAVSEA-accepted joiner and honeycomb panel systems.

Familiarity with NAVSEA Standard Items, shipboard inspection processes and applicable trade workmanship requirements.

Working knowledge of shop equipment such as brakes, shears and rolls for field pieces.

Familiarity with ventilation air-flow testing and balancing support activities.

Physical Requirements

Must be physically capable of performing the essential functions of the position, with or without reasonable accommodation.

Lift up to 50 lbs and carry a personal tool bag of 20–30 lbs.

Stand, balance, walk and climb ladders and staircases of varying sizes for extended periods.

Kneel, crouch, bend and reach above shoulder height or out in front.

Work at heights, overhead and in confined spaces, including extended overhead work on false overheads.

Wear required personal protective equipment, including respiratory protection where required (subject to fit testing and medical clearance).

Compensation and Benefits Pay range: $25-$35/hr PCI offers a competitive benefits package; details are provided during the hiring process.
