Structural Steel Fabrication Welder (FCAW/GMAW)

Express Employment - Skilled Trades (AL)

Job Description

Job Description

Shape Tomorrow’s Structures

Step into a fast-paced fabrication shop where your precision welds become the backbone of complex builds. As a Structural Steel Fabrication Welder (FCAW/GMAW), you’ll turn fabrication drawings and approved welding procedures (WPS) into clean, reliable welds that stand the test of time.

A Day in the Shop

You start by reviewing fabrication drawings and weld symbols, confirm fit-up and joint preparation, and select the correct WPS. With FCAW and GMAW at the ready, you lay down accurate, structurally sound welds—managing distortion, checking quality, and collaborating with fitters, supervisors, and quality personnel to keep every project on schedule. Along the way, you’ll safely operate grinders, torches, and related fabrication equipment, and you’ll finish the day knowing your craftsmanship made a visible impact.

Your Core Responsibilities
  • Fabricate and weld structural steel in accordance with WPS, drawings, and quality requirements.
  • Produce clean, precise welds using FCAW and GMAW; GTAW experience is a plus.
  • Interpret drawings, weld symbols, and project specifications to plan work effectively.
  • Verify proper fit-up, joint prep, and weld quality before striking an arc.
  • Operate grinders, torches, and other fabrication tools safely and efficiently.
  • Partner with teammates to meet deadlines and customer expectations.
  • Promote quality, productivity, and continuous improvement in every task.
What You Bring
  • 3+ years of structural welding experience preferred.
  • Ability to read and interpret fabrication drawings, weld symbols, and welding procedures.
  • Proficiency with FCAW and GMAW; GTAW familiarity is a plus.
  • Knowledge of weld prep, fit-up verification, and distortion control techniques.
  • Experience using grinders, torches, and related shop equipment.
  • Ability to successfully pass company-required welding qualification tests.
  • Strong attention to detail; able to work independently and as part of a team.
Why You’ll Like Working Here
  • Join a team that prizes craftsmanship and quality.
  • Tackle challenging, rewarding structural steel projects.
  • Practice your craft in a safety-focused environment.
  • Be recognized for hard work, reliability, and attention to detail.

Ready to build with precision and pride? Apply today and help us deliver exceptional steel fabrication, project after project.
