Precision MIG​/TIG​/Laser Welder - Sheet Metal Fabrication in Newport

Job Description Step into a Day on Our First-Shift Weld Team

When you arrive at Progressive Manufacturing in Newport, New Hampshire, you’re stepping into a leading precision sheet metal and modern gas fireplace operation. Your day starts by opening weldment drawings—some straightforward, others complex—and planning out each subassembly. You’ll set up for MIG, TIG, and laser welding across Mild Steel, Stainless, Aluminum, and Aluminized steel, selecting the right tooling and sequence to hit quality and delivery targets.

As beads stack up, you’ll document quality checks, verify measurements, and keep parts moving.

If priorities shift, you pivot smoothly—adapting to new assignments and, when needed, contributing occasional overtime to finish the job.
