Experience with precision measurement and first-article inspection.

Responsibilities

Lay out, align, fit, and tack metal components into assemblies using blueprints, measurements, and fixtures.
Perform MIG (GMAW) and Flux-Core (FCAW) welding on a variety of parts and configurations, with occasional TIG welding.
Read and interpret fabrication drawings, weld symbols, dimensions, and technical specifications.
Complete assemblies from initial layout and fit-up through final welding, grinding, and finishing.
Use tape measures, squares, calipers, and other measuring tools to maintain dimensional accuracy, including tolerances as tight as 1/32 inch.
Inspect fit-up, weld quality, and finished assemblies to ensure work meets specifications.
