MIG​/FCAW Structural Fabrication Welder

Build Big. Build Right. Build with ISC Manufacturing.

You take pride in every bead. You push yourself to get better. You want a place to grow. If that sounds like you, ISC Manufacturing is ready to meet you.

We design and build complex systems and components for Agriculture, Mining, Aggregates, Construction, Waste Processing, and Conveying. We’re hiring an experienced MIG/FCAW Fabrication Welder to help us deliver rugged, reliable equipment that keeps these industries moving.

A day in the life Start your day reviewing detailed blueprints and setting up components to spec. You’ll prep parts using angle grinders, drill presses, handheld plasma, oxy-fuel torch, and an ironworker. Then you’ll lay down quality welds in every position—horizontal, vertical, and overhead—on carbon and stainless, from thin 14 ga sheet to thick 4+ inch plate. Some tasks take you off the ground (12 feet or more) using ladders or a boom lift.

Throughout, you’ll maintain your equipment, follow all safety procedures, coordinate with teammates, and keep projects on schedule and within budget.
