Job description

Night Shift Welding Supervisor (6 PM – 6 AM)

SAW | MIG | Repair Welding | Fit-Up Operations

Position Summary

As a Night Shift Welding Supervisor, you will lead and oversee all welding and fit-up activities during the night shift, including Sub Arc (long seam and girth seam), MIG welding, repair welding, and fitting operations.

This role requires a balance of technical expertise and leadership capability. You must be able to evaluate weld quality, guide teams, enforce standards, and ensure production goals are met without compromising safety or workmanship.

This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who understands welding processes and can lead from the floor.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

Shift Leadership & Execution

  • Lead, direct, and support welders and fitters across the night shift
  • Assign work, set priorities, and ensure production targets are met
  • Maintain discipline, accountability, and consistent performance across the team
  • Monitor workflow and adjust resources as needed to meet production demands

Quality & Welding Oversight

  • Oversee welding activities across SAW (long seam & girth), MIG, and repair welding
  • Ensure all work meets AWS, ASME, and API standards
  • Review weld quality and address issues in real time
  • Partner with Quality/NDE teams to resolve defects and reduce rework
  • Ensure proper fit-up, joint prep, and weld procedures (WPS) are followed

Safety & Compliance

  • Enforce all safety policies and ensure proper use of PPE
  • Maintain a safe working environment in a high-risk, high-heat setting
  • Address unsafe behaviors immediately and consistently

Team Development

  • Train, coach, and develop welders and fitters
  • Identify skill gaps and support improvement through hands-on guidance
  • Reinforce expectations around quality, productivity, and accountability

Operational Discipline

  • Ensure equipment is maintained and used properly
  • Maintain clean and organized work areas
  • Communicate effectively with day shift leadership for continuity

What It Takes to Be Successful

  • Minimum 5+ years of experience supervising welding or fabrication operations
  • Strong technical knowledge of:
    • Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) – long seam and girth seam
    • MIG (GMAW), FCAW, and SMAW processes
    • Repair welding and defect identification
    • Pipe fitting and weld preparation
  • Working knowledge of AWS, ASME, and API standards
  • Ability to evaluate weld quality and troubleshoot issues in real time
  • Proven leadership ability in a production or manufacturing environment
  • Strong communication and decision-making skills
  • Ability to hold team members accountable while maintaining respect and professionalism
  • Reliable and able to lead effectively during a 12-hour night shift

Preferred Experience (Strongly Valued)

  • Experience in pipe manufacturing or pressure vessel environments
  • Background working with NDE (X-ray, UT) quality processes
  • Experience improving production efficiency and reducing rework
  • Prior experience developing or mentoring welders
