Job Description

Welder / Fabricator (TIG, MIG, Stick) $24-26/hour, 1st shift Build Custom Metalwork That Stands Out

Are you a skilled welder who takes pride in precision craftsmanship and working on unique, high-visibility projects? Join a growing team specializing in custom architectural and ornamental metalwork , where your skills in TIG welding and fabrication will directly contribute to creating standout structures seen in commercial and public spaces.

As a Welder / Fabricator, you’ll play a key role in producing high-quality, custom metal components from start to finish. This is a hands-on role where no two projects are the same.

• Perform primarily TIG welding (with some MIG and stick) on stainless steel, aluminum, and other architectural metals
• Fabricate and assemble railings, guardrails, stair systems, and custom metal features
• Set up and calibrate welding machines independently for each process
• Interpret blueprints, schematics, and fabrication drawings to build with precision
• Cut, fit, and assemble raw materials (plate, pipe, tube, structural components)
• Use shop tools such as grinders, saws, drills, sanders, and pneumatic equipment
• Perform prep work, finishing, and surface detailing to meet both structural and aesthetic standards
• Assist with installation and field work as needed
• Work on unique projects like:
  • Glass stair rail systems
  • Elevator interiors and architectural wall panels
  • Column enclosures and cladding
  • Custom ornamental metal pieces

We’re looking for welders who are versatile, detail-oriented, and ready to take ownership of their work.

• 2+ years of MIG welding experience
• Strong proficiency in TIG welding (stainless steel & aluminum preferred)
• Experience with stick welding
• Ability to pass 3G & 4G weld tests
• Blueprint reading and fabrication experience
• Skilled with power tools and fabrication equipment
• Strong measuring and layout skills
• Ability to lift 50+ lbs consistently
• Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
• Willingness to work overtime and travel to job sites when needed

• Architectural/ornamental metalwork
• Experience with glass rail systems, handrails, or guardrails
• Bronze or specialty metal fabrication
• Cladding, panel systems, or structural finishing work

We don’t just offer a job—we offer a path to grow your skills and career.

• ✅ 90-day contract-to-hire with strong conversion track
• ✅ Pay increase potential upon permanent hire
• ✅ Cross-training opportunities (including glazing and installation work)
• ✅ Leadership that invests in hands-on training and mentorship
• ✅ Team-focused culture with monthly BBQs and events
• ✅ Plenty of overtime opportunities for increased earnings
• ✅ Work on high-end, custom projects you can take pride in

This is a fast-paced, hands-on role across both shop and field settings.

• Shop work + field installations (varies by project)
• Schedule typically 6:00 AM – 2:30 PM (with early starts as needed)
• Frequent overtime: 10-hour days & some Saturdays
• Non-climate-controlled shop environment
• Daily use of welding equipment, fabrication tools, and PPE

Safety requirements:

• Steel-toe boots and long pants required from day one
• Strict adherence to safety standards in shop and field

• Welders who enjoy variety and custom work (not repetitive production)
• Individuals who take pride in precision and craftsmanship
• Team players who can also work independently with minimal supervision
• People who want to grow their skillset and career long-term
