Operations Engineer (API Certified) – Offshore Infrastructure & Digital Inspection
Redefining API Inspections for the Digital Age
At Abyss Solutions, we are transforming traditional inspection practices into digitally enabled, data-driven workflows powered by robotics, AI, and 3D digital twins. The world of API inspections is evolving and so are we. As industry standards and expectations shift, this role offers a unique opportunity to move beyond conventional inspection methods into a next-generation API regime.
If you are API certified and ready to apply your expertise in a more advanced, technology-driven environment, this is your chance to be part of that transformation.
Why This Role is Different
This is not a conventional API inspection role.
Here, you will:
-
Work on digital API applications and inspection workflows
-
Contribute to the evolution of asset integrity practices
-
Transition from traditional field-based inspection to data-centric condition assessment
-
Gain exposure to global offshore assets through advanced visual datasets
This is your opportunity to step into a future-focused, digitally enabled inspection career.
Key Responsibilities:
-
Analyze large-scale inspection imagery and datasets from offshore/onshore infrastructure
-
Perform digital condition assessments using API standards (API 570, 510, 580, etc.)
-
Identify and annotate corrosion, defects, and structural/mechanical features
-
Apply evolving API frameworks within digital inspection environments
-
Work with 3D photogrammetry and digital twin models for measurement and analysis
-
Support and improve inspection workflows and assessment methodologies
-
Deliver clear, data-backed engineering reports
-
Conduct quality assurance checks to maintain high accuracy standards
What We’re Looking For:
-
API Certified (Mandatory) – API 570 / 510 / 580 / 571
-
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Civil, Chemical, Petroleum, or related engineering field
-
1–6 years of experience in inspection, maintenance, or asset integrity
-
Strong understanding of API-based inspection regimes and condition assessment
-
Ability to interpret P&IDs, isometrics, and engineering drawings
Plus, you’ll thrive in this role if you:
-
Are motivated to transition from conventional inspection to digital workflows
-
Have an interest or experience in data-driven analysis and emerging technologies
-
Can quickly adapt to new tools, platforms, and digital environments
-
Bring a continuous improvement and innovation mindset
Preferred Skills:
-
Exposure to digital inspection tools, CAD, or point cloud data (Recap, Navisworks, AutoCAD)
-
Experience with data annotation or large dataset analysis
-
Familiarity with NACE, ASME, ASCE standards
-
Experience working in remote or distributed teams
What You’ll Gain:
-
Be part of the shift from traditional to digital API inspection regimes
-
Work on cutting-edge inspection technologies (AI, robotics, digital twins)
-
Exposure to diverse global infrastructure projects
- Opportunity to future-proof your career in a rapidly evolving industry
Note:
"This role requires a valid API certification (API 570, 510, 580, or 571). Applications without certification may not be considered at this time.”
