Industrial Pipefitter - Memphis

SpaceXAI seeks an Industrial Pipefitter to support building high-performance data centers for next-generation AI supercomputing infrastructure.

In this hands-on role, you will install large industrial piping systems, working closely with mechanical, welding, structural, electrical, and operations teams.

Responsibilities:

• Install large-bore industrial piping systems, measuring, cutting, beveling, fitting, hanging, and making up joints per drawings and specifications.
• Perform flange, groove, thread, and welded-joint fit-up, aligning pipe, setting gaps, and prepping joints for the welding crew.
• Install valves, fittings, hangers, supports, strut, and anchors; hang pipe racks and supports plumb and on grade.
• Read isometric, spool, and arrangement drawings; field-route as directed and flag drawing conflicts before installation.
• Support hydro, pneumatic, and service tests: install blinds and test packs, walk lines, and repair leaks.
• Stage, move, and inventory pipe, valves, hangers, insulation, tools, and equipment; keep laydown yards and mechanical rooms orderly.
• Assist with equipment set for pumps, cooling towers, air handlers, and related mechanical gear, including bolt-up of suction and discharge piping.
• Open and close work areas: protection, debris removal, scrap segregation, and end-of-shift reset.
• Follow LOTO, PPE, and permit rules; do not work on live systems without authorization.
• Report damaged material, unsafe conditions, and drawing conflicts immediately.
• Support punch-list work and cleanup through system turnover.

Basic Qualifications:

• 3+ years installing large industrial or commercial piping OR completion of a recognised pipefitter apprenticeship, OR equivalent military experience.

Preferred Skills and Experience:

• Experience fitting and installing welded, flanged, grooved, and/or threaded pipe, including hangers and supports.
• Willingness to work at heights, outdoors, and on a changing data center construction site.
• Ability to use pipefitting hand tools, power tools, bevelers, and material-handling equipment safely.
• Strong safety mindset and willingness to follow site procedures, including LOTO and permits.
• Willingness to work extended hours, nights, and weekends during critical construction windows.
• Prior experience on data center, industrial, or heavy-civil construction sites.
• Experience on large-bore welded industrial piping and equipment connections.
• Ability to read isometric, spool, and P&ID drawings.
• UA, NCCER, or equivalent pipefitter credential.
• OSHA 10 or equivalent training.
• Familiarity with hot-work, hydrotest, and flange-management practices.
• High school diploma or equivalency certificate.

Additional Requirements:

• Ability to travel extensively to SpaceXAI data center construction sites and remain onsite during peak construction phases.
