We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Junior Relief Valve (PSV) Engineer to support the design, selection, maintenance, and compliance assurance of pressure safety valves (PSVs) and related overpressure protection systems. This entry-level role offers hands-on experience working with critical safety devices in industrial environments such as oil & gas, petrochemicals, and power generation. The candidate will work under the guidance of senior engineers and participate in engineering, documentation, and inspection activities to ensure PSV integrity and performance.
Assist in collecting process data and performing PSV sizing calculations under supervision.
Support the preparation and review of datasheets, valve specifications, and overpressure protection summaries.
Aid in the selection of appropriate PSV types and materials for various service conditions.
Assist in maintaining up-to-date PSV registers, datasheets, certificates, and test reports.
Ensure PSV documentation aligns with applicable standards (API 520/521/526, ASME Section VIII) and internal procedures.
Support audits and compliance checks for regulatory and insurance purposes.
Participate in inspection, bench testing, and calibration activities at valve shops or vendor facilities.
Assist in identifying test intervals, inspection plans, and ensuring traceability of PSV components and records.
Track valve tagging, certification, and replacement history.
Support PSV field surveys, installation verification, and walkdowns.
Coordinate with operations, maintenance, and safety teams during shutdowns or pressure protection reviews.
Participate in PSV-related punch list closure and commissioning assistance.
Work closely with senior engineers to build expertise in PSV function, standards, and lifecycle management.
Stay updated on codes and best practices related to pressure relief systems.
Bachelor’s Degree in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, or Instrumentation Engineering.
0–2 years of experience (internship or exposure to PSV design, testing, or maintenance is an advantage).
Familiarity with P&IDs, line lists, and safety system basics is a plus.
Basic understanding of pressure relief principles and mechanical components.
Exposure to industry standards such as API 520/521/526, ASME VIII, and OSHA PSM guidelines.
Proficiency with MS Office and engineering documentation tools.
Good attention to detail, willingness to learn, and strong organizational skills.
Effective communication and ability to work collaboratively in a team environment.
Basic safety training or site access certifications (e.g., OSHA, H2S).
Valve vendor or API training courses are an advantage.
