Location:
Equipment & Assembly Facility – Pittsburgh, PA Pay: $33.00/hr. starting
Bonus: $1,000 New-Hire Retention Bonus
Calgon Carbon | A Kuraray Company
Why This Role Stands Out
If you're an experienced welder who takes pride in code-quality welds, pressure vessels, and complex fabrication, this role offers work that challenges your skill—not repetitive production welding.
At Calgon Carbon, our welders fabricate large ASME pressure vessels and piping systems that support critical air and water purification solutions used around the world.
What You'll Be Doing
Perform ASME code welding on pressure vessels, piping, and structural components
Weld using FCAW, GTAW, GMAW, SMAW, and SAW
Work with carbon steel, stainless steel, and nickel-based alloys
Read and interpret engineering drawings and weld procedures
Complete ASME weld logs and quality documentation
Pass non-destructive testing (NDT) for pressure-retaining welds
Use overhead cranes, jib cranes, and forklifts safely
Inspect and repair welds to meet code and quality standards
This is hands-on, high-skill welding—not light fabrication or bench work.
Weld Test & Certifications
On-site weld test required as part of the interview processTest is aligned with ASME Section IX procedures
Designed to reflect the actual work performed in the shop
Prior ASME code welding experience required
Company-paid certification and recertification to CCC welding procedures
We believe great welders should show their skill, not just talk about it.
What We're Looking For
2+ years of experience welding pressure vessels or pipe (FCAW required)
High school diploma or trade school certification (welding preferred)
Ability to pass on-site weld qualification testing
Strong attention to safety, quality, and documentation
Schedule
Rotating shift operation (details reviewed during the screening process)
Overtime opportunities as business needs require
Pay, Bonus & Benefits
$33.00/hr. starting pay
Shift Differential: Additional $3.00 per hour for qualifying shifts

$500 after 9 months of successful employment
Excellent benefits starting Day 1 Medical, dental, vision & prescription coverage
401(k) with generous company match
Paid time off (vacation starting at 3 weeks)
Tuition reimbursement and ongoing skill development
