• Operate welding equipment and other fabrication tools safely.

• Maintain a clean and organized work area.

• Follow all company safety policies and quality standards.

• Collaborate with team members to meet production schedules and deadlines.

Qualifications

• Previous MIG welding experience required.

• Strong working knowledge of the GMAW process.

• Ability to set up your own welding machine and make appropriate adjustments as needed.

• Experience identifying weld quality issues such as too hot, too cold, lack of fusion, and undercut.

• Experience welding carbon steel and stainless steel preferred.

• Ability to read blueprints and use measuring tools.

• Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing quality work.

• Dependable with excellent attendance.

• Positive attitude and team-oriented mindset.

Hiring Process

Our hiring process includes several steps to ensure a great fit for both the candidate and the client:

1. Initial phone screening with our recruiting team.

2. Brief phone pre-interview with the client.

3. Hands-on MIG welding test.

4. In-person interview (following successful completion of the weld test).

During the weld test, candidates should be prepared to demonstrate the ability to set up their own machine, understand proper heat control, and identify weld defects such as lack of fusion and undercut.
