Aerospace TIG Welder

DESCRIPTION

Win-Tech, Inc., an aerospace and defense precision manufacturing company in Kennesaw, Georgia, is seeking an experienced TIG Welder to join our team.


This is not an entry-level welding position. We are looking for an experienced welder with strong GTAW/TIG welding expertise who understands the precision, documentation, workmanship, and process-control requirements associated with aerospace and defense manufacturing.

The Right Person for This Role

Aerospace welding requires more than the ability to lay down a good bead. We need someone who understands that the drawing, specification, WPS, material identification, qualification status, and documentation are all part of the finished product.

The right candidate takes pride in precision, understands when something doesn't look right, and is comfortable stopping and asking questions rather than making assumptions. You should be able to work independently while also collaborating effectively with machinists, inspectors, engineers, and production leadership.

Full-time positions available: (40 hours a week)

First Shift - Monday-Thursday (6:00am-4:30pm)


REQUIREMENTS

• Demonstrated expertise and hands-on experience with GTAW/TIG welding.
• Previous aerospace, defense, aviation, or similarly regulated precision-manufacturing welding experience.
• Current or previously held welding qualifications applicable to the work being performed, with the ability to successfully complete Win-Tech/customer-required qualification testing.
• Ability to consistently produce high-quality welds on thin-gauge and precision components.
• Strong understanding of weld joint preparation, heat control, distortion control, filler-metal selection, shielding, and contamination prevention.
• Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, weld symbols, specifications, and manufacturing instructions.
• Experience working to controlled welding procedures and understanding the importance of staying within qualified process parameters.
• Ability to use standard inspection and measurement equipment as appropriate to the work.
• Follow all safety policies and procedures.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality.
• Arrive to work on time and as scheduled.
• Must be able to read and interpret blueprints/engineering drawings and work order instructions.
• Ability to maintain accurate documentation and material/process traceability.
• Ability to identify nonconforming conditions and stop work or escalate concerns rather than proceeding outside approved requirements.
• Must have High School Diploma or GED. Or a four-year apprenticeship program.
• Demonstrate effective verbal, written, and communication skills.
• Lift up to 60lbs, pushing, pulling, standing for long periods of time, manual dexterity, visual acuity.

The Aerospace TIG Welder will perform precision welding and fabrication operations in accordance with customer drawings, specifications, work instructions, and applicable welding procedures.

Responsibilities include:

• Perform high-quality GTAW/TIG welding on aerospace and defense components and assemblies.
• Weld materials commonly encountered in precision aerospace manufacturing, including aluminum, stainless steel, and other specified alloys.
• Work from engineering drawings, blueprints, weld symbols, specifications, travelers, and written work instructions.
• Perform fit-up, tack welding, and final welding while maintaining dimensional and cosmetic requirements.
• Follow approved Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS) and applicable process requirements.
• Maintain required welder qualifications and certifications for assigned processes and materials.
• Verify proper joint preparation, cleanliness, shielding gas, filler material, equipment setup, and other welding parameters before beginning work.
• Perform visual inspection of completed welds and recognize common weld discontinuities and defects.
• Maintain complete and accurate production, inspection, material, and traceability documentation.
• Protect material and product identification throughout the manufacturing process.
• Work closely with Quality, Engineering, Manufacturing, and inspection personnel to resolve technical or quality issues.
• Maintain welding equipment, tooling, fixtures, and a clean, organized work area.
• Follow all safety, quality, FOD prevention, and material-handling requirements.
• Support fabrication, assembly, rework, and other manufacturing activities as needed.

Highly Preferred

• Experience working within an AS9100 quality management system.
• Experience with AWS D17.1 or other aerospace welding requirements, as applicable.
• Experience welding multiple aerospace alloys and material thicknesses.
• Experience with weld inspection and recording of data and findings
• Experience with weld procedure qualification, welder performance qualification, and/or maintaining welding certification records
• Familiarity with First Article Inspection (FAI), nonconformance documentation, and aerospace customer source-inspection requirements.
• Experience supporting NADCAP-controlled or similarly stringent special-process environments is a plus.
