Job Description

Job Description

These positions are not typical welding roles.

All of the welding is done on smaller parts, there is no heavy lifting at all for these roles. The manual welding is mostly TIG welding. This is a great spot for someone who does not want any heavy lifting and someone who does not want to be dirty after work.

 

Pay is based on previous experience and weld test.

 

We are looking for candidates with 1+ year of professional welding experience OR related education.

 

Why work here:

  • Great benefits package after probation period, health insurance is 100% paid for by company for you and dependents
