Welder/Fabricator

TIG Welder / Fabricator

Overview

We are seeking a skilled TIG Welder / Fabricator with a strong commitment to precision, craftsmanship, and quality. This position focuses primarily on TIG welding aluminum and stainless steel components, including sheet metal assemblies and fabricated parts for industrial applications.

The ideal candidate can produce clean, consistent welds, control heat and distortion, and work accurately from fabrication drawings. Strong fit-up skills, attention to weld appearance, and the ability to meet dimensional requirements are essential.

Responsibilities

• Perform TIG welding on aluminum, stainless steel, and other metals as required, producing high-quality welds that meet project specifications.
• Set up and adjust TIG welding equipment, including amperage, AC/DC settings, shielding gas flow, tungsten selection, and filler metal selection.
• Weld thin-gauge sheet metal and components of varying thicknesses while controlling heat input, distortion, and burn-through.
• Prepare weld joints through cleaning, deburring, grinding, and accurate fit-up to support weld quality and consistency.
• Read and interpret blueprints, fabrication drawings, weld symbols, and applicable welding procedures.
• Position, clamp, tack, and weld components while maintaining alignment, squareness, and dimensional tolerances.
• Use back purging when required for stainless steel welds.
• Inspect completed welds for appearance and visible defects, and verify finished assemblies against drawing requirements.
• Use calipers, micrometers, squares, and other measuring tools to confirm dimensions and fit.
• Operate hand tools, power tools, cutting equipment, and fabrication machinery to prepare and assemble components.
• Perform MIG welding and other fabrication tasks as needed to support production.
• Maintain welding equipment and a clean, organized work area while following all shop safety procedures.

Qualifications

• Demonstrated TIG welding experience, with strong skills in aluminum and stainless steel preferred.
• Ability to produce clean, consistent TIG welds on thin-gauge materials and precision fabricated assemblies.
• Working knowledge of TIG equipment setup, tungsten preparation, filler metals, shielding gases, and material preparation.
• Strong understanding of heat control, weld sequencing, and techniques for minimizing distortion.
• Ability to read fabrication drawings, interpret weld symbols, and follow written welding procedures.
• Proficiency in fit-up, layout, measuring, and the use of common fabrication tools.
• Attention to detail and pride in both weld quality and finished appearance.
• Ability to work independently and collaborate with the fabrication team to meet production schedules.
• Commitment to safe work practices and proper use of personal protective equipment.
• MIG welding experience is a plus; TIG welding proficiency is the primary requirement.

Join our team and put your TIG welding skills to work on projects where precision and craftsmanship matter. We value dependable professionals who take pride in their work and consistently deliver high-quality results.
