Welder - 2nd Shift - Mod42

GTI is a contract manufacturing partner supporting customers in renewable energy, power generation, infrastructure, and industrial systems.

We fabricate custom designed, purpose-built enclosures and skids for our customers and perform mechanical and electrical integration in-house, delivering a true turn-key product to our customers. Our scope spans Engineering, prototype builds, through full production, requiring teams that can move fast, adapt, and execute with precision.

• Fit, tack, and weld carbon steel, stainless steel, and low-alloy steel using MIG/GMAW, TIG/GTAW, and manual welding techniques.
• Weld assemblies, sub-assemblies, brackets, channels, angles, and modular components per engineering drawings.
• Prepare welds using grinders, saws, and welding tools; perform vertical (3G), overhead (4F), horizontal, and flat welds.

Blueprint Reading & Layout

• Read and interpret blueprints, weld symbols, detail drawings, and fabrication schematics.
• Measure, cut, and layout materials using calipers, squares, tape measures, and fabrication tools.
• Determine proper weld processes, joint designs, and equipment settings per job specifications.

Assembly & Integration

• Fabricate fixtures and support tools based on engineering sketches.
• Assemble welded components into larger structures, platforms, frames, or modular units.
• Perform mechanical assembly as needed on production builds.

Inspection, Testing & Repair

• Inspect welds for accuracy, penetration, and quality.
• Repair, rework, or correct fabrication issues and dimensional deviations.
• Verify tolerances and inspect final assemblies for structural integrity.

Production & Safety

• Meet production targets, quality standards, and labor-hour requirements during 2nd shift operations.
• Maintain welding machinery, tools, and PPE in safe working condition.
• Follow OSHA rules, AWS standards, and internal safety guidelines.
• Complete shop order documentation, time sheets, and necessary reports.

• Proven experience as a Welder, Fabricator, MIG Welder, TIG Welder, or Industrial Welder.
• Skilled in MIG, TIG, Stick, GMAW, GTAW, and related welding processes.
• Experience using electrical and manual tools (angle grinders, saws, calipers, clamps, squares, measuring tools).
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings, diagrams, and welding blueprints.
• Knowledge of welding safety standards, weld quality requirements, and inspection practices.
• Ability to lift 50 lbs and perform physical tasks including bending, kneeling, overhead work, and climbing.
• Strong attention to detail and quality craftsmanship.

Preferred Skills / Qualifications

• Welders should have AWS Certification (GMAW, 3G Vertical Up, 4F Overhead).
• Mechanical assembly experience in manufacturing or fabrication environments.
• Experience welding carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloy steels.
• Knowledge of torch cutting, plasma cutting, and GTAW/TIG welding.
• Understanding of manufacturing tolerances and measurement verification.
