Job Description

Industrial Welding Assistant and Structural Fitter–Welder

Location: Decatur, AL | Employment: Temp-to-Hire | Pay: $18.00–$25.00 per hour (based on experience)

About CloudRay
For 25+ years, CloudRay Inc. (headquartered in East Windsor, NJ) has connected skilled trades professionals with top manufacturers nationwide. We partner with industrial, logistics, IT, hospitality, and skilled trades employers to help candidates land stable, long-term roles.

A day in the shop

The floor hums to life as you clock in. Material moves, torches warm, and blueprints land on the bench. Two essential roles keep production flowing—each with a clear purpose and a path forward.

Role 1: Welder Helper

You’re the momentum behind the welders—staging parts, keeping the area orderly, and making sure every piece is where it needs to be.

  • Support welders with material handling and basic assembly.
  • Lift, carry, and position parts safely for weld operations.
  • Follow written work instructions and shop safety practices.
  • Keep tools and the work zone clean and organized.
  • Bonus: Comfort with reading blueprints.

Pay: $18.00–$19.00/hr

What you bring:

  • 1+ year in a manufacturing environment.
  • High School Diploma or GED.
  • Ability to lift up to 60 lbs.
  • Reliable attendance and strong work ethic.
  • Steel-toe boots.
  • Must communicate effectively in English.
Role 2: Fitter–Welder (MIG)

You own the fit-up—translating blueprints and weld symbols into precise assemblies, then laying down clean, consistent MIG welds.

  • Interpret blueprints and weld symbols accurately.
  • Fit, align, clamp, tack, and weld to specification.
  • Perform MIG welding for production-quality joints.
  • Check work using visual and dimensional inspection tools.
  • Operate hand and power tools safely and effectively.
  • Complete production paperwork and uphold quality standards.

Pay: $25.00/hr

What you bring:

  • 2+ years fitter/tack welding experience.
  • Proficiency in MIG welding.
  • Ability to read blueprints and weld symbols.
  • Ability to accurately read a tape measure.
  • Capability to lift up to 50 lbs.
  • Steel-toe boots.
  • Must communicate effectively in English.
  • Must pass an internal welding test.
