    + Review and interpret P&IDs, equipment layouts, and utility drawings to generate line routing, supports, and general arrangement plans.

    + Perform engineering calculations related to pipe sizing, pressure drops, thermal expansion, and support loads.

    + Support stress analysis efforts and assist with interpretation of stress modeling results to inform routing and support requirements.

    + Select piping components and materials based on fluid service, pressure class, temperature, and corrosion considerations.

    + Prepare technical deliverables such as line lists, MTOs, valve data sheets, and piping specifications.

    + Lead the preparation of isometric drawings, bill of materials, and fabrication packages in collaboration with designers and drafters.

    + Coordinate with mechanical, civil, structural, electrical, and process disciplines to ensure design compatibility and resolve interface issues.

    + Ability to evaluate material compatibility and corrosion resistance based on service conditions.

    + Experience interpreting and developing P&IDs, line lists, and piping specifications.

    + Working knowledge of thermal expansion, pipe stress, and flexibility considerations in layout design.

    + Experience working on multidisciplinary teams and contributing to integrated plant or facility designs.

    + Proficiency in Microsoft Excel for design documentation, calculations, and material takeoffs.

    + Strong communication skills for coordination with clients, vendors, and project stakeholders.
