Job Description
2nd shift Monday-Friday 4p-12:30a $23.00 an hour
MIG welding on carbon steel with analog welders. (Analog welders require the welder to set both the heat and wire speed on two separate dials.) Before being placed, candidates must pass a basic welding test on carbon steel, appx 14 gauge. Setting the welder correctly is part of the test. It is a visual test, as this is not structural welding. Much like the assembly process, each welder is at his own booth. A material handler delivers a pallet with parts that make up the housing, or shell of the unit. The welder uses basic blueprints to determine how the parts fit together, then tacks and welds the units together. Some welders weld wheels, which resemble the air intake of a jet. Lift tables are used for large units, so welders spend most of their time in a comfortable upright position. There is no ‘confined space’ welding. We do not require welding certifications just an acceptable weld test. While we prefer welders with manufacturing experience, we have hired welders who just graduated from welding school and those who did not take classes, but learned from farming or other family businesses. Candidates who have some weld experience but are unable to pass the test are often hired in other positions, and can move into a welding job if they are able to practice or take additional classes.
