About Patriot Erectors, LLC Patriot Erectors is a full-service, AISC-Certified Steel Fabricator and AISC-Certified Advanced Steel Erector. Since 1991, from our modern 60,000‑square‑foot facility just west of Austin, Texas, we’ve fabricated and erected structural steel for complex buildings and non‑building structures with a relentless focus on quality, safety, and pride in every project. Requirements People come first here. Our mission is to fabricate and erect steel that meets or exceeds our customers’ requirements — without defects or accidents.

We seek out steel‑related opportunities and take on challenges to deliver outcomes that are mutually respected and mutually beneficial, fueling growth for our employees, our stakeholders, and the communities we call home.

Your mission literally ends with “without defects or accidents”—you’ll own the programs, training, and boots‑on‑the‑ground presence that sends every crew member home safe. You’ll integrate safety into the day‑to‑day operation of our DFW projects by building and maintaining the processes and procedures that prevent injuries, keep us compliant with the law and company policy, and minimize the environmental impact of our operations. This is a hands‑on, proactive role for someone who solves safety challenges in the field, not from behind a desk. Why Patriot — Not the Other Guys Safety IS the culture here, not a checkbox. It’s the first letter of our values and the last word of our mission. You won’t fight for a seat at the table — this role is the table. Boots on the ground, ear of leadership.
