•1:00 AM (Four 10-hour days) A day in this role Step onto the shop floor and turn raw stock into finished structural assemblies. Most of your day (about 70%) is hands-on fabrication—translating drawings into accurate layouts, fitting and squaring components, and keeping material moving safely through production.

What you'll do Fabrication (70%) Interpret shop drawings, blueprints, and welding symbols to create precise layouts. Fit, square, align, and tack structural assemblies and miscellaneous items (handrails, stairs, ladders). Prepare material by cutting, beveling, and shaping using horizontal bandsaws, ironworkers, plasma torches, and automated machinery (including drill lines or RoboRail). Operate overhead bridge cranes and forklifts to stage and advance work efficiently and safely. Troubleshoot basic issues with wire feeders and common shop tools to minimize downtime. Welding (30%) Execute high-quality structural welds using Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW). Manage heat input, travel speed, and puddle control to avoid warping, undercut, and porosity. Verify completed welds meet company quality standards and pass required inspections. What you bring

Welding:
Strong FCAW proficiency; MIG (GMAW) or Stick (SMAW) experience is beneficial. Layout & fit-up: Solid print reading and metal layout skills; handrail/stair layout experience is a plus.

Work ethic:
Team-first approach, reliable attendance, and commitment to shop safety.
Assessment:
Ability to pass an on-site practical, hands-on weld and layout test.
