• Fabricate, assemble, install, and seal sheet metal ductwork, plenums, transitions, boots, and cleanroom enclosures using appropriate methods (welding, riveting, sealing, structural framing).
• Perform high-precision layout, cutting, bending, forming, and finishing of sheet metal components to meet cleanliness, tolerance, and airflow performance (including SMACNA / SEMI standards as applicable).
• Ensure installation meets cleanroom classification requirements (e.g., minimal leaks, smooth airflow, minimized particle generation).
• Carry out inspections, leak testing, sealing, QA checks, and participate in turn-over documentation (including as-builts, fabrication logs).
• Perform daily safety checks, toolbox talks, Job Safety Analyses (JSAs), and conform to strict safety & cleanroom protocols (PPE, suit-up, gowning, etc.).
• Collaborate with other trades, site management, and clients to coordinate installations, manage interferences, and maintain schedule integrity.
• Maintain clean work areas consistent with high purity / cleanroom requirements; control contamination risks.

Qualifications:

• Journeyperson Sheet Metal certification (Red Seal or equivalent) required.
• Experience in semiconductor, pharmaceutical, or similar high-purity environments dealing with cleanroom/air distribution / high-spec ducts.
• Strong ability to read blueprints, isometric/3D models, HVAC / ductwork layouts.
• Knowledge of SMACNA, SEMI (if relevant), NFPA, OSHA safety standards as applicable.
• Skilled in welding, metal forming, sheet metal fabrication tools, proper sealing techniques.
• Attention to detail, high standards around cleanliness and finish.
• Experience with cleanroom protocols (e.g. gowning, contamination control) is a strong asset.
• Strong communication, ability to work in teams and adapt to evolving project requirements.

Working Conditions:

• Work is performed in cleanroom environments, sub-fab and other controlled zones, and outdoor / fabrication shop areas.
• Must wear cleanroom PPE (bunny suits, gloves, masks, etc.), adhere to gowning / protocol.
• Physically demanding work. Selected candidate will be expected to be able to with or without reasonable accommodation:
• Sit, talk, hear, and use hands to handle or feel
• Occasionally reach, climb, balance, kneel, crouch, or crawl
