Welder Custom fabrication

Position Summary

We are hiring an experienced Welder II to support a custom fabrication shop with a strong safety culture and small, accountable team.

This is not an entry-level role. We need someone who can step in immediately, read prints, handle fit-up, and produce quality welds with minimal supervision.

• Perform MIG/TIG welding on carbon steel, stainless, and aluminum
• Read and interpret blueprints, weld symbols, and shop drawings independently
• Complete fit-up, layout, and fabrication of custom parts and assemblies
• Maintain high weld quality with minimal rework
• Identify and resolve fit-up and fabrication issues on the floor
• Support production flow and meet deadlines
• Follow and uphold all shop safety standards and PPE requirements

• 3+ years welding/fabrication experience (job shop or custom work preferred)
• Strong blueprint reading and layout capability
• Proficient in MIG welding (TIG experience preferred)
• Ability to work independently without constant direction
• Consistent quality, attention to detail, and reliability
• Team-oriented with a strong work ethic

• lift and carry 50–80 lbs regularly
• bending, stooping, kneeling, and standing throughout the shift
• Ability to work in a shop environment (heat, noise, welding fumes with proper PPE)
• Manual dexterity to operate welding and fabrication equipment safely

• Experience with complex/custom builds (non-production)
• Ability to help guide or support less experienced welders
• Familiarity with organized, efficient shop practices (5S/6S mindset)

• Starting at $26/hr (DOE – higher for strong candidates)
• Opportunity for growth and increased responsibility
• 1 week paid vacation 1st year and 2 weeks paid vacation after.

• Small team, hands-on shop
• Safety-first culture
• High-mix custom fabrication (variety of work, not repetitive production)
