Are you the welder who can turn prints into precise grating? If you thrive in a production environment, work safely with cranes and power tools, and hold yourself to high standards for quality and output, this role puts your skills to work right away.

• Interpret basic drawings and complete straightforward fabrications: straight and band cuts, applying nosing and toe plates, and installing anchor blocks — or set up and weld all configurations of heavy-duty hand-welded grating.
• Hit defined quality and productivity goals without sacrificing safety.
• Lay out, assemble, and weld grating per material specs, spacing requirements, job travelers, and drawings.
• Operate with minimal supervision in a self-directed workflow.
• Use overhead and jib cranes to position and move grating safely.
• Run power equipment: band, cold, and table saws; grinders; presses; cutting torches; routers; and welding machines.
• Complete all paperwork and time entries accurately to support inventory control.
• Perform routine maintenance; flag equipment issues and needed repairs.
• Assist other areas by troubleshooting welding and fabrication challenges.
• Flex between production lines as priorities shift.
• Communicate clearly and collaborate with teammates.
• Keep shared and personal work spaces organized and clean.
• Cross-train and take on additional duties as assigned.

• Comfortable using a wide range of hand/power tools and operating overhead cranes safely.
• Read and interpret blueprints; read metric and standard tape measures.
• Math fluency: add/subtract two-digit numbers; multiply/divide by 10s and 100s without a calculator; work with fractions in standard and metric units.
• Strong teammate with effective communication.

• 2–4 years of fabrication training/experience.
• 2–4 years in steel, stainless, or aluminum manufacturing.
• 1–2 years of overhead crane experience.

• Frequent repetitive motion; long periods of standing and walking.
• Regular stooping, bending, reaching, grasping; pushing/pulling grating materials.
• Lift/move up to 50 lbs regularly and up to 75 lbs occasionally using proper technique, assistance, or lifting equipment.
