Job description

GMAW Fabrication Welder II

Location: [Local Facility – details provided during interview]

Employment Type: Full-time

Work Conditions: Manufacturing / Welding / Production Environment

Travel: No

Telecommute: No

Compensation: $24.00 per hour

Work Hours: Monday–Friday, 6:00 AM – 2:30 PM

A day in the life

At 6:00 AM, you suit up with PPE and review the day’s prints. You set your GMAW parameters, tack up a sub-assembly, and run clean, consistent beads in flat, horizontal, and vertical positions. Using cranes and forklifts, you position components safely, then verify your welds against specifications and record results. After a quick hand-off with teammates, you prep the next unit—grinding, cleaning, and organizing your station—so the following operation flows without delay. Throughout your shift, you keep an eye on quality, document production, and uphold OSHA and company safety standards.

Role overview

The Welder II performs MIG (GMAW) welding and assembly on production and rebuild components in a fast-paced industrial setting. Success in this role requires blueprint literacy, precision to spec, and the discipline to work independently while meeting quality and throughput targets.

  • Execute MIG welds on sub-assemblies and finished products to print
  • Read and interpret blueprints, weld symbols, and work instructions
  • Weld in flat, horizontal, and vertical positions
  • Fit, assemble, and aid fabrication of production parts
  • Perform in-process inspections and verify weld quality
  • Prep units for downstream operations (cleaning and finishing)
  • Maintain a clean, organized workstation
  • Follow OSHA procedures and company quality standards
  • Operate forklifts, overhead cranes, personnel lifts, and metalworking tools as needed
  • Complete accurate production and inspection documentation

Requirements

  • 4–7 years of welding experience preferred
  • MIG (GMAW) proficiency required
  • Ability to read blueprints and weld to print
  • Strong knowledge of welding safety and quality standards
  • Proven ability to work with minimal supervision
  • Reliable attendance and strong work ethic
  • Capable of lifting up to 50 lbs; comfortable with physically demanding work

Preferred qualifications

  • Welding certification
  • Experience in manufacturing or heavy equipment environments
  • Experience operating forklifts, overhead cranes, or lifts
  • Mechanical assembly or fabrication background
