Perform inspections and address weld defects or fabrication issues
Maintain accurate welding and production documentation
Follow all safety, quality, and defense-industry procedures
Required Qualifications

Hands-on experience with one or more of the following:

Ability to provide permitted examples of previous work, project history, references, weld samples, or photographs when allowed by confidentiality requirements
Preferred Qualifications
AWS welder qualification and/or AWS D1.x experience
TACOM, military ground-vehicle, or defense OEM welding background
Experience with defense-specific welding procedures and qualifications
Familiarity with NDT and weld inspection
AWS CWI, CWE, or SCWI credentials for senior or lead-level candidates
