Description

Plastic Fusion Foreman – Tool Hook-Up Overview: CAM Industrial Solutions, a leader in industrial services and one of the fastest-growing privately held companies in Canada and the United States, is seeking a high-impact Plastic Fusion Foreman. At CAM, we believe “good” is never good enough. We aim for excellence in everything we do, and we’re looking for individuals who share that same drive, take pride in their work, and thrive in a collaborative, high-performance environment. If you are passionate about continuous improvement, teamwork, and making a meaningful impact, we encourage you to apply and become part of our forward-thinking organization. Visit us at https://www.camindustrialsolutions.com/. Position Summary: The Plastic Fusion Foreman is responsible for leading and coordinating thermoplastic piping installations and hook-ups to process tools in cleanroom environments. This includes overseeing crews performing IR, butt, socket, and hot-gas fusion on PVDF, PFA, HDPE, and PPH systems. This role ensures safe execution, quality control, and compliance with SEMI, OSHA, and project-specific requirements for UHP chemical and gas distribution. It requires strong coordination across trades, proactive leadership, and an uncompromising commitment to safety and first-pass quality. Key Responsibilities: Supervise up to 12 fusion technicians installing UHP plastic systems across multiple bays or tool sets. Plan and execute daily work packs in alignment with project schedules, scope, and coordination plans. Lead daily Pre-Task Plans (PTPs), ensure task readiness, and coordinate with superintendents, tool owners, and other trades to prevent scheduling or spatial conflicts. Enforce full compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1926 Subpart J, SEMI S2/S8/F15, and site-specific confined space protocols (e.g., under RMF floors). Lead lockout/tagout (LOTO) procedures for chemical and process lines; verify confined space permits for subfloor or tool-skid access. Conduct daily safety audits; document corrective actions, near-miss incidents, and proactive safety observations. Interpret P&IDs, isometric drawings, and OEM hook-up schematics to create cut lists and define fusion parameters. Oversee fusion processes including IR butt fusion, socket fusion, and hot-gas welding in accordance with DVS 2207, ASTM F2620, and manufacturer specifications. Verify slope, support spacing, and expansion loop placement for chemical and drain systems. Coordinate pressure and leak testing (e.g., hydrostatic, nitrogen, or helium), ensuring timely documentation of all QC checks. Maintain detailed fusion logs, heat number traceability, weld maps, and turnover documentation packages. Interface with QA/QC inspectors to resolve punch list items and achieve ≥98% first-pass yield. Provide progress updates, manpower forecasts, and 2–3 week look-aheads to project and construction management. Represent the Fusion discipline during install coordination meetings and customer walk-downs. Support SOP improvements and crew training through feedback and best-practice sharing. Qualifications: 5+ years of hands-on UHP thermoplastic fusion experience, with 2+ years in a supervisory or lead-hand role on semiconductor, pharmaceutical, or advanced tech projects. Proficient in fusion of PVDF, PFA, PPH, and HDPE piping systems using IR, BCF, socket, and hot-air tools. Working knowledge of SEMI standards (S2, S8, F15, F81) and ASME B31.3 Chapter VII for thermoplastics. Skilled in interpreting and redlining 2D/3D piping models (Navisworks, AutoCAD Plant 3D) and P&IDs. DVS 2207 certification or OEM certification (GF, AGRU, Asahi) for monitoring welder performance, preferred. NCCER Pipefitter or equivalent journeyperson credential, preferred. Completion of First-Line Supervisor training, TapRoot or 5-Whys incident investigation, preferred. Experience with digital fusion loggers and barcode-based traceability platforms, preferred. Spanish/English bilingual capability is an asset. Valid driver’s license and ability to pass site-specific background, drug screening, and cleanroom gowning requirements. Working Conditions: Work is performed in semiconductor cleanrooms and active construction sites. Physical activities include climbing, standing, walking, kneeling, crouching, crawling, pushing, pulling, lifting, grasping, and repetitive motions. Frequent site inspections required, with exposure to noise, temperature fluctuations, and construction hazards. Must be able to wear cleanroom PPE (e.g., bunny suit, respirator) and don chemical suits as needed during flush or decontamination operations. Must be available for off-shifts (second/third), weekend work, and emergency call-outs to support tool start-up milestones.
