TIG WELDER

Why Join Us?  The Mission: Work on cutting-edge hydrogen and clean-energy technology, not just standard structural steel.

• The Environment: Clean, state-of-the-art, climate-controlled manufacturing facility.

• Competitive Compensation: Top-of-market Bay Area wages, comprehensive health/dental/vision benefits, 401(k) matching, and equity/stock options.

• Career Growth: We invest in our people with continuous training, cross-skilling in orbital/automated welding, and clear pathways into lead or engineering roles.

What You’ll Do (Key Responsibilities) As a TIG Welder , you will be responsible for the high-precision fabrication of our core fuel cell modules and high-temperature piping systems.

• Precision Welding: Perform manual TIG (GTAW) welding on thin-gauge stainless steel, Inconel, and specialized alloys.

• Blueprint Mastery: Interpret complex engineering drawings, welding symbols, and specifications to layout and execute flawless welds.

• Zero-Tolerance Quality: Deliver high-pressure, leak-tight welds capable of passing rigorous visual inspections and helium leak testing.

• Fit-Up & Fab: Utilize jigs, fixtures, and precision measuring tools (calipers, micrometers) to align and tack components within strict tolerances.

• Collaborate: Work closely with manufacturing engineers and quality inspectors to optimize weld fixtures and troubleshoot production challenges.

What We’re Looking For (Qualifications)

• Experience: 3+ years of professional TIG welding experience, ideally in an aerospace, semiconductor, medical device, or high-tech manufacturing environment. Material Expertise: Proven track record working with thin-gauge sheet metal, stainless steel, and nickel alloys (Inconel). Technical Skills: ability to read blueprints, welding symbols, and follow Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS). Quality Mindset: Pride in your craftsmanship with an eye for uniformity, penetration, and clean aesthetics.

• Certifications (Preferred): AWS D1.1, D1.6, or relevant ASME certifications are a major plus.

Ready to Build the Future of Energy? If you take pride in the art of a perfect weld and want to apply your skills to meaningful work, we want to hear from you.
