Job description



Full-time, Temporary work with overtime required

Heath Consultants is expanding! Our Field Operations team has been awarded a major project, and we are hiring Atmospheric Corrosion Inspectors (ACI) to support this work across multiple regions. No prior industry experience required—we provide all training and operator qualifications needed to succeed.

Join an organization that has supported the natural gas and utility industry since 1933. At Heath, your work protects communities, ensures regulatory compliance, and strengthens the safety of natural gas infrastructure nationwide.

About the Role

As an Atmospheric Corrosion Inspector, you will conduct regulated inspections on natural gas meter sets and above-ground piping systems to identify, document, and mitigate atmospheric corrosion. Your work plays a vital role in maintaining system integrity and preventing safety hazards.

This position requires outdoor work, field documentation, interaction with customers and property owners, and strict adherence to federal guidelines.

What You’ll Do

Perform Regulated Atmospheric Corrosion Inspections

  • Conduct thorough visual and physical examinations of gas meter sets exposed to the atmosphere.
  • Inspect corrosion-prone areas such as:
    • Soil-to-air interfaces
    • Pipe supports
    • Splash zones
    • Disbonded coatings
    • Exposed metallic components
  • Assess coating integrity and identify signs of surface rust, pitting, or advanced corrosion.

Perform Remediation When Needed

  • Conduct surface-level remediation at Heath’s/client’s discretion, including:
    • Wire brushing
    • Cleaning
    • Priming
    • Painting using approved materials
    • Application of protective coatings

Use Industry-Approved Tools & Technology

  • Utilize handheld equipment and specialized tools for corrosion assessment.
  • Use CGI/sniffer equipment for leak detection when required (including Minnesota inside meter protocols).
  • Complete all documentation in Survey123 / Service Suit, entering:
    • GPS location
    • Technician ID
    • Timestamp
    • Leak classification
    • Required photo angles
    • Notes on anomalies or corrosion

Identify and Report Safety Issues

  • Immediately contact the Call Center if gas odor or a hazardous condition is detected and remain on-site until relieved.

Customer Service & Access Management

  • Request entry for inside meter inspections (where applicable).
  • Communicate professionally with property owners to gain access, explain the inspection purpose, and ensure a positive experience.


Operator Qualification Requirements

(Heath provides all required training & testing.)

Depending on region, employees must obtain qualifications under:

  • ASME B31Q (TX)
  • MEA OQ Program (IN, OH) Covering skills such as:
  • Visual inspection for atmospheric corrosion
  • Abnormal operating conditions
  • Hazards of natural gas & ignition prevention
  • Coating application & repair
  • Leak investigation


What We’re Looking For

Must-Haves

  • Valid driver’s license with acceptable driving record
  • High school diploma or GED
  • Ability to work outdoors in all weather conditions
  • Ability to walk 4–7 miles per day, bend, kneel, and lift up to 25 lbs
  • Ability to work independently and follow regulatory procedures
  • Ability to use mobile devices and documentation applications

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience in utility inspection, construction, field survey work, or related roles
  • Customer service or field service experience


Why This Role Matters

Atmospheric corrosion—metal deterioration caused by exposure to moisture, oxygen, and contaminants—can compromise the safety and reliability of the natural gas system. Your inspections help prevent leaks, protect communities, and ensure compliance with federal integrity regulations.
