Work safely in a dirty, industrial environment, including confined spaces and at heights using ladders. Collaborate with team members and supervisors to meet production goals and maintain workflow efficiency. Adhere to all safety protocols, including the proper use of equipment and personal protective gear. Essential Skills At least 2+ years of experience as an industrial welder, preferably 3-5 years of continuous work experience.

Capability to perform fitting tasks or strong aptitude to learn fitting. Consistency and reliability in work history, with sustained employment in previous roles. Work Environment Work takes place indoors in a heavy industrial manufacturing setting where water and fuel tanks, coal haulers, bottom-dump trailers, and equipment transports are produced for global construction and mining use. Although work is indoors, you may be exposed to varying weather conditions including cold, heat, and moisture. The environment is dirty and industrial, with loud metal clanking and typical fabrication noise. You must be comfortable working in confined spaces and climbing ladders as part of daily tasks. Appropriate industrial attire and personal protective equipment are expected to ensure safety in this setting. Job Type & Location This is a Contract to Hire position based out of Albuquerque, NM.
