• Cut, grind, prepare, fit, tack, and weld materials as required.
• Verify dimensions, alignment, and fit-up before welding.
• Inspect completed weldments and assemblies to ensure quality and dimensional accuracy.
• Use saws, grinders, measuring equipment, clamps, fixtures, and other fabrication tools.
• Perform assembly work when required.
• Maintain accurate production and quality documentation as needed.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work environment.
• Identify and communicate drawing, fit-up, material, or quality concerns before completing nonconforming work.
• Take ownership of weld quality, fit-up accuracy, and overall workmanship.
• Perform additional duties as assigned.

Qualifications

• High school diploma or equivalent preferred.
• Previous welding and fabrication experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Ability to read and interpret blueprints, weld symbols, and fabrication drawings.
• Knowledge of MIG welding processes and fabrication techniques.
• Experience using precision measuring and inspection tools.
• Strong mechanical aptitude and attention to detail.
• Ability to work independently after receiving job instructions.
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
• Dependable attendance and commitment to workplace safety.
• Ability to consistently produce high-quality work that meets customer specifications.

Preferred Skills

• Strong MIG welding experience.
• Ability to fit and fabricate directly from a print.
• Working knowledge of weld symbols and fabrication drawings.
• Experience using tape measures, calipers, squares, levels, and other inspection equipment.
• Experience with structural steel and general fabrication work.
• Strong attention to fit-up, weld quality, and dimensional accuracy.
• Ability to troubleshoot fabrication and fit-up issues independently.
• Experience performing both welding and assembly work.

Schedule & Work Environment

• Full-time position.
• Manufacturing and fabrication shop environment.
• Work with welding equipment, fabrication tools, assembly processes, and industrial machinery.
• Exposure to welding fumes, grinding operations, sparks, noise, and metal fabrication activities.
• AS9100-certified manufacturing environment supporting welding, fabrication, CNC machining, assembly, and complex customer requirements.
• Strong focus on safety, quality, and continuous improvement.

Physical Requirements

• Ability to stand and work for extended periods throughout the shift.
• Ability to lift, carry, move, and position materials, tools, and fabricated assemblies.
• Frequent bending, kneeling, crouching, reaching, twisting, and other physical movements.
• Ability to safely operate welding and fabrication equipment.
• Ability to perform detailed visual inspections of weld quality, dimensions, and finished products.
• Ability to work safely around metal materials, fabrication equipment, and production machinery.

Open Roles

Full-time positions available. Primarily seeking experienced Welders and Fabricators; however, candidates with a solid welding foundation, strong work ethic, and a desire to continue developing their fabrication skills are encouraged to apply.
