Responsibilities

• Perform MIG welding on aluminum parts and assemblies used in concrete form products, following established specifications and quality standards.
• Interpret basic instructions and work requirements to set up and complete welding tasks accurately and efficiently.
• Inspect welds for quality, strength, and appearance, and make adjustments as needed to maintain consistent standards.
• Work primarily in the central welding area of the facility and collaborate with other welders to meet daily production goals.
• Assist other stations in the facility when needed, including tasks such as picking up trash, loading trucks, cleaning work areas, and servicing equipment.
• Maintain a clean and organized work area to support safety and productivity across the team.
• Follow all safety guidelines for welding, including appropriate use of protective clothing and equipment.
• Communicate effectively with team members and supervisors to report issues, share updates, and support a cooperative work environment.

Essential Skills

• At least 1 year of MIG welding experience, preferably with aluminum.
• Proficiency in MIG welding techniques, including setting up and operating MIG welding equipment.
• Ability to weld aluminum components with attention to quality, consistency, and structural integrity.
• Comfort working in a busy fabrication environment with multiple welders and production activities.
• Willingness to assist with non-welding tasks as needed, such as cleaning, loading trucks, and general facility support.
• Reliable attendance and ability to work the scheduled daytime shifts, including occasional Saturdays.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• No formal education requirements for this role.
• No welding certifications required; practical MIG welding experience is valued.
• Easy-going, flexible attitude and willingness to be a team player.
• Ability to adapt to changing priorities and help in different areas of the facility when requested.
• Comfort working in a non-climate-controlled environment.

Work Environment

This role is based in a non-climate-controlled fabrication facility. Welders work primarily toward the center of the building, while shippers, assemblers, and other staff are positioned around the edges. The typical shift runs from approximately 6:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, with occasional Saturday work as needed. You will be part of a welding team of about 25 people, with plans to grow to around 30 welders. The environment is active and production-focused, and team members may be asked to support other stations with tasks such as trash pickup, truck loading, cleaning work areas, and servicing equipment. The dress code requires jeans or cotton dress pants and long-sleeve shirts while welding, along with appropriate protective gear as needed for safety.
