Welding Fabricator Geotechnical Drilling Assemblies

Build what goes beneath the surface

Help fabricate the structural steel components that power geotechnical drilling operations. In this role, you’ll combine MIG, TIG, and stick (SMAW) techniques to deliver strong, clean, specification-driven weldments that stand up in the field.

Your impact

Produce structural welds on heavy assemblies for drill rigs and related equipment, aligned to prints and welding procedure specifications (WPS).Configure equipment, select the correct filler materials, and validate settings before production runs.

Assess weld quality, remedy defects, and document rework as required.

Finish welds by grinding and blending to meet final dimensional and cosmetic standards.

Translate fabrication drawings and weld symbols into accurate fit-ups and final assemblies.

Keep machines and tools in peak condition through routine care and troubleshooting.

Champion safety by following hot work rules and wearing all required PPE.Qualifications High school diploma or GED.
2+ years of welding in a manufacturing environment.

Proficient in MIG; TIG experience preferred.

Comfortable reading weld drawings and symbols.

Preferred credentials AWS D1.1 certification.

Hands-on experience with chrome-moly or other high-strength steels.

TIG certification.

Physical demands & environment

Plan for 8–10 hours of standing per day and routine exposure to weld fumes, UV light, heat, and sparks. Full PPE is mandatory, including welding helmet, gloves, and flame-resistant apparel.
