Job Title: Welder

Job Description

We are hiring MIG welders of all levels. Whether you're an entry-level candidate or have an AWS certification, we have opportunities for you. Entry-level candidates will start with tacking off production and gradually move to fabrication on the floor. All work will be inspected. Candidates must take a weld test, which includes reading a blueprint and a math test (including fractions). Only steel welding will be performed, though TIG experience is a plus. Ideal candidates have experience in tank and structural welding. Our company manufactures various items mainly in the construction industry, such as radiators and cascade systems.
