- Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior fabricators and maintenance team members.
What We're Looking For
- 7+ years of professional welding and fabrication experience.
- 3+ years working in food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical, or another sanitary manufacturing environment.
- Advanced TIG and MIG welding skills with stainless steel.
- Strong experience with sanitary tubing, Tri-Clamp fittings, weld ferrules, and butt welds.
- Excellent stainless-steel fabrication, finishing, grinding, and polishing skills.
- Ability to independently manage a fabrication project from start to finish.
- Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, P&IDs, and weld symbols.
- Working knowledge of sanitary design, GMPs, food safety, and CIP systems.
- AWS D1.6 or ASME Section IX certification preferred.
- Orbital welding experience is a plus.
Why This Opportunity?

- Primarily hands-on fabrication work with a high degree of independence
