This role supports a busy fabrication and welding operation by preparing materials, maintaining clean and organized workspaces, and assisting with a variety of production tasks. You will work closely with the welding department, performing tack welding, sanding, grinding, and layout of brackets while learning to operate welding equipment and other tools. The position involves hands-on work with metal components, equipment upkeep, and basic inspection to ensure quality and safety on the production floor.

• Replenish consumables on the production floor, ensuring welding and fabrication teams have necessary supplies.
• Operate hand tools, power tools, and basic production equipment in a safe and efficient manner.
• Support mechanical assembly and construction-related tasks as needed within the facility.
• Conduct basic inspection of workpieces to verify quality, accuracy, and adherence to specifications.
• Assist with sandblasting and other surface preparation activities when required.
• Follow all safety procedures and guidelines while working in an industrial indoor/outdoor environment.
• Collaborate with team members and remain teachable, taking direction and feedback to improve skills over time.

• Experience in general manufacturing or production environments.
• Ability to perform general labor and manual work for extended periods.
• Comfort using hand tools and power tools safely and effectively.
• Basic understanding of machine operation and mechanical assembly tasks.
• Willingness and ability to assist with welding-related activities such as tack welding and material prep.
• Capability to perform sanding, grinding, and other fabrication support tasks.
• Attention to detail when inspecting parts and materials for quality.

You will join a rapidly growing organization that offers strong job stability and ongoing opportunities as the operation expands, including the addition of new night shifts. The environment rewards reliability, a positive attitude, and willingness to learn, providing hands-on training and exposure to a wide range of fabrication and welding activities. This is a place where hard work is recognized, and growth is supported as the company continues to scale.

Work Environment

The role is based in a very industrial indoor and outdoor facility with extensive fabrication activity. The setting feels more like a construction site than a traditional manufacturing plant, with heavy equipment, metalwork, and active production areas. You must be comfortable working in all weather conditions, including hot and cold temperatures, and navigating an environment with ongoing welding, grinding, and sandblasting. Multiple rotating shifts are available: A and B shifts are day shifts running from 6:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., while C and D shifts are night shifts from 6:00 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. The shift pattern follows a repeating rotation across days of the week, requiring flexibility and reliability for long, structured shifts in a demanding industrial setting.
