About the Team
Nichols Brothers Boat Builders (NBBB) has been crafting state-of-the-art vessels on beautiful Whidbey Island since 1964. Located in Freeland, WA, our shipyard produces a diverse fleet including tugs, ferries, fire boats, fishing vessels, barges, and dinner boats. We are dedicated to building sophisticated ships that serve critical maritime needs.
About the Role
We are seeking an experienced Journeyman Pipefitter to join our fabrication and repair teams. In this role, you will be instrumental in creating pipe spools and complex pipe system assemblies for both new construction and rebuild projects. You will gain deep knowledge across a wide array of marine systems, including heating and cooling, refrigeration, fuel, engine cooling, exhaust, sewage, bilge, ballast, and fire suppression.
Your day-to-day will involve forming, fitting, and fabricating metal and nonmetallic piping systems according to engineering drawings. You will work across various environments, from the fabrication shop and modular jigs to finished assemblies and sea trials. This position requires not only technical precision in layout, cutting, threading, and bending but also the ability to collaborate effectively within a team. You will be expected to share your trade knowledge with apprentices and colleagues, fostering a culture of continuous learning and skill development.
