The Mechanical Integrity Engineer will support and oversee inspection activities in accordance with API 510, API 570, and API 653, ensuring that equipment inspection intervals, repairs, and alterations comply with applicable codes and company standards. The role works closely with operations, maintenance, and inspection personnel to monitor equipment condition, evaluate damage mechanisms, and implement corrective actions that support safe and reliable plant operation.

The ideal candidate will bring strong knowledge of fixed equipment inspection, corrosion management, and industry codes, along with the ability to analyze inspection data and drive improvements in asset integrity and reliability.

Responsibilities:

• Develop, implement, and maintain the mechanical integrity program to ensure the safety and reliability of equipment such as pressure vessels, pipelines, storage tanks, and heat exchangers.

• Plan, coordinate, and oversee inspections of critical equipment, including non-destructive testing (NDT), visual inspections, pressure tests, and thickness gauging.

• Ensure compliance with inspection schedules and regulatory requirements in alignment with industry codes (e.g., API, ASME, OSHA) and Linde Gas Procedures.

• Review and analyze inspection data to identify trends, anomalies, and areas of concern.

• Evaluate and manage corrosion rates, wear, material degradation, and life expectancy of equipment.

• Collaborate with regulatory bodies and internal/third-party auditors during inspections and certifications.

• Maintain comprehensive documentation on mechanical integrity programs, inspection records, repairs, and certifications for audits and legal compliance.

• Collaborate with maintenance teams to plan and execute repairs, modifications, or upgrades for mechanical equipment and systems.

• Make recommendations on appropriate materials, repairs, or replacements to improve safety and longevity.

• Monitor repair quality and verify compliance with engineering specifications and standards.

• Maintain updated records of inspections, repairs, and asset integrity assessments in computerized maintenance management systems (CMMS).

• Develop reports on mechanical system performance, risks, and integrity management activities for internal use and external stakeholders.

• Analyze data to drive improvements in asset integrity and performance.

• Work closely with engineers, maintenance and operations teams, reliability experts, and management to ensure proper integration of mechanical integrity efforts within overall operations.

• Provide technical guidance and training to operations and maintenance personnel on mechanical integrity standards, processes, and best practices.

• Actively participate in incident investigations related to mechanical equipment and provide engineering input to improve safety systems.

• Facilitate failure analysis investigations to determine root causes and recommend corrective or preventive actions.

• Track advancements in mechanical integrity practices, standards, and technologies, and recommend updates to programs and methods accordingly.

• Identify opportunities for cost savings and process optimization without compromising safety or compliance.

• Improve asset reliability and availability by implementing advanced engineering solutions such as condition monitoring and predictive maintenance techniques.

• Maintain comprehensive documentation on mechanical integrity programs, inspection records, repairs, and certifications for audits and legal compliance.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Engineering Degree with 10 years' experience in mechanical integrity, mechanical, or chemical

• At least one API Certification (510, 570, 653)

• Proficiency with ASME, ANSI, and OSHA standards

• Project Management PMP or equivalent experience
