Welder-1st shift

Location: Huron, SD (Monday-Thursday) 6am-4:30pm

Join our team as a Welder, turning raw steel into structural foundations for utility trucks and equipment.

• Build critical structures: Fit, tack, and weld steel components for aerial devices and digger derricks using GMAW/FCAW processes, following approved weld procedures and engineering drawings.
• Own quality at the arc: Read and interpret blueprints and WPS, set up jigs/fixtures, prep and finish welds (grinding/chipping), and perform in‑process checks so work meets spec the first time.
• Work safely—every time: Follow Terex “Zero Harm” expectations, required PPE, hot‑work controls, and LOTO when applicable; keep work areas orderly and hazard‑free.
• Move materials confidently: Use overhead cranes and material‑handling equipment to stage, position, and transfer parts safely and efficiently.
• Collaborate to improve: Partner with Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, and your team to solve problems, reduce rework/distortion, and support continuous improvement and 5S.
• Grow your skills: Participate in training (including weld school/skills development and, where applicable, robotic welding) to expand capabilities and progress through defined skill levels.

• High school diploma or GED.
• Experience welding steel using GMAW (MIG) and/or FCAW in a manufacturing or fabrication environment.
• Ability to read and interpret blueprints, weld symbols, and work instructions.
• Working knowledge of weld quality standards and the ability to perform basic visual inspections.
• Ability to safely use overhead cranes, hoists, and material‑handling equipment (or willingness to be trained).
• Strong commitment to safety, including consistent use of PPE and adherence to hot‑work requirements.
• Ability to stand for extended periods and perform physical tasks such as lifting, pushing, pulling, and positioning materials.
• Reliable attendance and the ability to work assigned shifts (including weekends, if applicable).

• Technical diploma or coursework in welding or fabrication.
• Previous experience welding structural or heavy‑gauge steel.
• Familiarity with AWS welding standards.
• Experience working in a team‑based manufacturing environment.
• Willingness to learn additional processes, including robotic welding or advanced fabrication skills.
