Job Title: 6GR SMAW / FCAW Welder

Description

The position of 6GR SMAW / FCAW Welder is one of the most technically demanding and highly respected roles in the industrial and offshore construction sectors. These welders are responsible for performing specialized welding tasks on complex structures, particularly in the fabrication of offshore platforms, pipelines, and heavy steel assemblies. The “6GR” welding position is recognized globally as one of the most challenging, requiring exceptional skill, precision, and endurance. Professionals in this role must demonstrate advanced expertise in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) and Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) techniques, which are essential for achieving strong and reliable joints in demanding environments. Their work directly supports critical energy and infrastructure projects, making them invaluable contributors to the growth and sustainability of the construction and oil & gas industries.

Key Responsibilities

The core responsibilities of a 6GR SMAW / FCAW Welder revolve around executing high-quality welds on structural and pipe components while ensuring compliance with safety and technical standards. Welders in this role are expected to interpret complex blueprints, engineering drawings, and welding symbols to prepare joints with the utmost accuracy. They perform welding operations on various materials, including carbon steel and stainless steel, using both SMAW and FCAW processes. Each weld must pass visual inspections and nondestructive testing (NDT) procedures such as X-ray and ultrasonic testing to guarantee strength and durability. Maintaining safety protocols during hot work, managing tools and consumables efficiently, and cooperating with supervisors and quality inspectors are essential aspects of the job. In addition, welders must ensure the cleanliness of their workspace, monitor welding parameters, and report any material or equipment issues promptly to their foreman.

Skills and Knowledge

To qualify as a 6GR SMAW / FCAW Welder, candidates must possess advanced welding skills backed by relevant certifications and hands-on experience. A valid or even expired JCC (Joint Certification Committee) certificate is preferred, along with proven experience in offshore structural welding. Knowledge of welding standards, joint preparation, and electrode selection is crucial to perform the job efficiently. Strong understanding of metallurgy, welding symbols, and defect prevention methods adds significant value to a welder’s profile. The ability to work in confined spaces, at heights, or in offshore environments is a must, as these tasks demand physical stamina and attention to detail. Candidates should be capable of handling long working hours under strict quality supervision while maintaining consistency and safety. Good teamwork and communication skills are also vital since collaboration between welders, fitters, and supervisors ensures timely and flawless project execution.
