You’ll work on a variety of projects where your experience and craftsmanship make a visible difference.

This is a great fit for someone who enjoys variety, independence, and seeing the results of their work rather than repeating the same task every day.

• Employee referral program
• Employee assistance program

As a Welder, you will:

• Weld, repair, and fabricate used equipment as needed
• Maintain a safe and organized workspace

• Effective communication is necessary to understand and follow safety procedures and instructions, communicate with customers and team members, and complete required job-related documentation.
