What are the responsibilities and job description for the Industrial Maintenance Welder-Fabricator position at Hunter International?
About the Role
Picture your day: you start with a walk-through of the production floor, checking mechanical systems and planning the morning’s tasks. A call comes in—an assembly needs a precision weld on a small bracket tucked inside a tight enclosure. You set up, execute a clean MIG weld, then move on to routing conduit and installing a new enclosure to support a line change. After lunch, you meet with engineering to resolve a build issue and help turn a prototype into something we can build over and over. You wrap up by documenting an improved assembly process and knocking out a few preventive maintenance tasks.
What You’ll Tackle- Handle general mechanical and industrial maintenance across the facility.
- Perform welding repairs and end-to-end fabrication projects.
- Execute precise welds on small components and assemblies, including work in tight or confined spaces.
- Read and apply basic drawings, sketches, and measurements for fabrication and repair work.
- Install mechanical components; route conduit and mount enclosures to support equipment and facility needs.
- Partner with engineering to resolve build issues and improve manufacturability.
- Create and refine repeatable assembly procedures and documentation.
- Support the shift from prototypes to stable, repeatable production.
- Troubleshoot and repair equipment and mechanical components to minimize downtime.
- Assist with installing, modifying, and repairing machinery and facility equipment.
- Use hand and power tools safely and effectively.
- 4 years of industrial maintenance experience required; 10 years preferred.
- Strong hands-on welding background with proficiency in MIG welding.
- Experience in metal fabrication, fitting, cutting, grinding, and related shop processes.
- Proven mechanical aptitude with solid troubleshooting ability.
- Comfort working on ladders and the ability to lift 50 pounds.
- Safe operation of hand tools, power tools, and welding equipment.
- Meticulous attention to detail and a strong safety mindset.
