As a Welder/Fitter at All‑Equip, you’ll work across both production and custom fabrication. The work is diverse by design. We build what others won’t, which means we need welders who are genuinely skilled, not just fast.

• Select appropriate welding processes based on material type, thickness, and project requirements.
• Use jigs, fixtures, and measuring tools to ensure accurate fit and repeatability.
• Operate fabrication equipment including saws, torches, grinders, hoists, and welding machines.
• Inspect welds and assemblies against internal quality standards and customer specifications.
