Job description

Fabricator | Landisville, PA

Regular Employee | Hourly Non-Exempt | $23.00 - 28.00

What you'll do:

SUMMARY: The Fabricator is responsible for producing and assembling fabricated components safely, accurately, and efficiently in support of Fab Shop and production requirements. This hands‑on role uses a variety of shop tools, equipment, drawings, measurements, and work instructions to cut, drill, form, fit, finish, and assemble parts to specification.

The ideal candidate brings broad mechanical aptitude and practical experience across multiple fabrication or production processes. Prior assembly experience is valuable because this position requires an understanding of part fit, orientation, fastening, and downstream build requirements, not simply completing a single machine operation.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Read and follow blueprints, shop drawings, work instructions, bills of material, and production specifications
• Measure, mark, lay out, and verify material using tape measures, squares, calipers, gauges, templates, and other tools
• Safely operate a variety of fabrication equipment and hand or power tools, which may include saws, drills, drill presses, grinders, sanders, shears, brakes, punches, and fastening equipment
• Cut, drill, form, notch, grind, deburr, and finish metal or other production materials to required dimensions and quality standards
• Fit and assemble fabricated parts using mechanical fasteners, adhesives, fixtures, clamps, and other approved assembly methods
• Set up work areas, select the correct tooling, and make routine process adjustments within established operating standards; perform welding‑related work only when qualified and assigned
• Inspect completed work for dimensions, fit, finish, workmanship, and conformance to specifications before releasing parts to the next operation
• Identify nonconforming material, equipment concerns, or unclear work instructions and *escalate* issues before additional work is completed
• Maintain accurate production counts, material identification, traceability, and required shop documentation
• Maintain tools, fixtures, and work areas through daily inspection, cleaning, preventive care, and 5S practices; support cross‑training, assembly work, rework, and changing Fab Shop priorities

QUALIFICATIONS:

• High School Diploma or GED required; technical, vocational, or trade‑school coursework preferred
• Two or more years of experience in fabrication, metalworking, manufacturing, mechanical assembly, or a similar hands‑on production environment preferred
• Demonstrated experience using multiple shop tools or fabrication processes rather than experience limited to a single repetitive operation
• Mechanical assembly experience, including part fit‑up, fastening, alignment, and interpretation of work instructions, strongly preferred
• Ability to read a tape measure and interpret basic blueprints, drawings, dimensions, and tolerances
• Working knowledge of safe tool operation, personal protective equipment, machine guarding, and material‑handling practices
• Strong mechanical aptitude, hand‑eye coordination, attention to detail, and ability to recognize workmanship or fit concerns
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team, learn new equipment, rotate between assignments, and maintain quality in a fast‑paced environment
