welding, fabrication, fitting, and repair of carbon steel, stainless steel, nickel alloys, and other specialty metals. Responsibilities include producing high-quality welds while controlling heat, penetration, distortion, and weld appearance. The position requires the ability to read blueprints, weld symbols, WPS/weld data sheets, and operation travelers. May also perform MIG/GMAW, FCAW, tack welding, plasma cutting, and torch cutting as required. Must successfully complete Company-required welding qualification/testing, including 2G and 2F qualifications. What You Will Do Perform
GTAW/TIG
welding and other welding processes, including GMAW/MIG, FCAW, and tack welding, in accordance with WPS, weld data sheets, blueprints, and work instructions. Select appropriate filler materials, electrodes, tooling, and welding parameters based on material type and job requirements. Set up parts using fixtures, weld benches, turntables, and other equipment to ensure proper fit-up and alignment. Prepare weld joints by cleaning and removing oil, dirt, rust, burrs, and other contaminants. Perform fillet, groove, butt, and full-penetration welds on carbon steel, stainless steel, nickel alloys, and other specialty metals. Control heat input, penetration, weld profile, and distortion to produce high-quality welds free from cracks, porosity, burn-through, and other defects. Inspect completed welds and verify dimensions using measuring tools such as calipers, micrometers, gauges, squares, and measuring tapes. Grind, clean, blend, and repair welds as necessary to meet blueprint and quality requirements. Perform plasma cutting, torch cutting, and weld repair operations as required. Safely operate cranes, hoists, carts, dollies, and forklifts to move materials and completed parts. Maintain welding equipment, tooling, fixtures, and work areas in a clean, safe, and organized condition. Follow all established operating procedures, quality standards, and safety requirements, and report or assist in correcting workplace hazards. Perform other related duties as assigned by the Team Leader or Supervisor. What You Will Have Experience performing
TIG/GTAW
welding on stainless steel, nickel alloys, and other specialty metals. Experience with full-penetration groove welds and multi-pass TIG welding. Experience with back-purging and controlled shielding of stainless steel and alloy welds. Experience working from formal Weld Procedure Specifications (WPS). AWS, ASME, military, aerospace, pressure vessel, or other applicable welding certifications/qualifications are preferred where relevant to Company products. Experience working in a quality-controlled manufacturing environment with documented weld procedures and inspection requirements.
