Job description

OverviewDowntime Rebuild is hiring an experienced Welder-Fabricator who can independently operate a CNC plasma table in our Cincinnati shop.CNC plasma-table operation is the primary requirement for this position. This is not a training role for someone whose only experience is using a handheld plasma cutter or welding pieces that another employee has already prepared.The right person can receive a file from engineering, load it into the plasma table, set up the material and cut settings, run the job and produce finished parts. AutoCAD or SolidWorks experience is helpful but not required because our engineers create the drawings.Responsibilities- Receive drawing and production files from engineering and load them into the CNC plasma table’s software or controller.- Verify the part layout, material type, thickness, consumables and cut settings.- Load and position raw material on the plasma table.- Independently operate the table from setup through the completed cut.- Monitor cut quality and make necessary adjustments.- Perform basic torch, nozzle, consumable and cut-quality troubleshooting.- Inspect completed parts for accuracy before fabrication and assembly.- Read blueprints, technical drawings and specifications.- Fabricate metal components from raw material rather than only welding pre-cut pieces.- Perform MIG, TIG and stick welding as needed.- Use grinders, saws, press brakes, measuring tools and other fabrication equipment.- Maintain a clean and safe work area and keep equipment in good condition.Required Qualifications- Hands-on experience independently operating a CNC plasma table in a fabrication or manufacturing environment.- Ability to clearly explain the steps personally performed from receiving a file through producing finished cut parts.- Experience loading files, setting up material and cut parameters, operating the table and checking finished parts.- Metal fabrication and welding experience.- Ability to read blueprints and technical drawings.- Ability to use calipers, micrometers, tape measures and other measuring tools.- Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing quality work.- Ability to work independently and safely.Experience that does not qualify- Handheld or manual plasma-cutting experience without CNC plasma-table experience.- Only welding parts that another employee cut and prepared.- Watching or assisting another operator without independently setting up and running the table.- Experience that would require training on the basic operation of a CNC plasma table.Preferred Qualifications- Experience with Lincoln, Torchmate or similar CNC plasma tables.- AutoCAD or SolidWorks experience.- Experience with press brakes and other metal-fabrication equipment.Pay$25–$35 per hour, based on experienceYou should be proficient in:Welding Setups for ProductionMachines & technologies you'll use:CNC Mill (3-4 axis VMC) (Fanuc, Bridgeport)MIG WelderTIG WelderStick Welder3D Modeling (AutoCAD, Solidworks)2D Drawings (AutoCAD, Solidworks)Sit-Down Forklift (Hyster)Manual GrinderPallet Jack (Hyster)Power Tools (DeWalt, Makita, Milwaukee, Bosch, Ryobi, Hilti)Press Brake (Cincinnati)CNC Plasma Cutter (Torchmate)Overhead CraneMeasurement GaugesManual Plasma Cutter (Miller, Lincoln)Calipers and MicrometersForklifts (Hyster)Paint SprayerBand SawBelt Sander
