Full Job Description

GENERAL JOB DESCRIPTION

R-V Industries is a design and build manufacturer of custom industrial process equipment, including a wide range of ASME Section VIII pressure vessels engineered and fabricated in our own shops. The Pressure Vessel Design Engineer is responsible for the mechanical design, code calculations, and detailed documentation of pressure vessels and related components built to ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII. This is a hands-on engineering role with a clear growth path: we are looking for someone who brings strong fundamentals, the desire to master pressure vessel design, and the character to grow into a technical and people leader on our team. We are open to training the right candidate from an adjacent field — process equipment, structural, piping, or heat exchanger design — who is ready to specialize in code vessel work.

DUTIES/RESPONSIBILITIES

Design ASME Section VIII pressure vessels and related components in a manner that supports job specifications, applicable codes, customer requirements, and good engineering practice.
Perform and document code calculations using Compress (or equivalent pressure vessel software) — including shell and head sizing, nozzle reinforcement, flange design, supports, and external pressure analysis.
Grow into a technical leader on the team — own the engineering quality of the work you touch, set the example for thoroughness in calculations and documentation, mentor less-experienced engineers and designers through design reviews and one-on-one coaching, raise concerns early and constructively, and represent R-V's technical position with confidence in front of customers, Authorized Inspectors, and internal stakeholders.
Own the PO and specification review and all pertinent technical documentation required to build, inspect, test, and ship the vessel. This includes drawings, component specifications, bills of materials, weld maps, and code documentation packages.
Prepare and maintain the calculation set and U-1 Manufacturer's Data Report package for Authorized Inspector review and registration with the National Board.
Assist Sales, Project Managers, Purchasing, Quality, Manufacturing, and Testing with all issues related to the contract, including material selection, fabrication sequencing, NDE requirements, and hydrostatic/pneumatic testing.

SKILLS/QUALIFICATIONS

Required Skills:

Minimum of 3 years of progressive design engineering experience, including some or all of the following:
- ASME Section VIII pressure vessel design
- Shell, head, nozzle, and flange code calculations
- Material selection for code construction (carbon steel, stainless, nickel alloys)
- Reactor, column, or related process equipment design
- Jacketed vessel design

Experience with Compress is preferred; experience with other pressure vessel software (PV Elite, Nozzle Pro, Codeware tools, or equivalent) will also be considered.
Demonstrated desire and character to grow into a leadership role at R-V. We expect a future technical leader to show:
- Sound technical judgment — knowing when to follow the code letter-for-letter, when to ask for guidance, and when to push back on a customer or vendor.
- Ownership mentality — taking responsibility for the full lifecycle of a vessel from design through hydro test, and following through on commitments without being chased.
- Mentorship instinct — willingness to teach calculation methods, code interpretation, and drafting standards to less-experienced engineers and designers.
- Clear, respectful communication — able to explain technical decisions to non-engineers, write documentation others can follow, and disagree without making it personal.
- Commitment to continuous improvement — actively learning new codes, materials, and software, and proposing better ways to do the work.
3+ years of experience with SolidWorks, Inventor, or AutoCAD for fabrication drawings
Sizing components and creating calculation packages
Creating complete vessel designs, including general arrangement and detailed drawings
Writing specifications for buyout components
Creating Bills of Materials for purchasing and production

Willing to Train the Right Candidate:

ASME Section VIII code experience (we will train a strong adjacent-field engineer)
Compress software
AWS welding symbol understanding and geometric tolerancing
Support in obtaining PE License (or EIT)

EDUCATIONAL/PHYSICAL REQUIREMENTS

Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent
