Job Description

Structural Steel Layout & Fit-Up Specialist

Location: La Crosse, VA

You clock in to a well-organized shop in La Crosse and head to your bay. Today’s build includes beams, joists, and a set of stiffeners. You study the blueprint, mark your layout, pull your tape, and confirm decimal measurements before you bring components together. You check the fit-up, confirm positioning on connection plates and supporting brackets, and only then hand the assembly off for welding—confident it meets spec. Throughout the day, you keep your area clean, follow safety and quality procedures, and take pride in precise work that becomes part of something bigger.

• Read and interpret blueprints, drawings, and layout instructions.
• Measure accurately with a tape measure and work confidently with decimal measurements.
