Welder

Experienced MIG Welder – Container Fabrication

Pay: $20-24 based on experience

Type: Full-time

Location: Wheatland, PA

Shift: Day shift only, 10hrs, 40 to 50 hours per week

Why This Job

We build sealed containers where the weld quality is the priority — no shortcuts, no leaks, no comebacks. If you take pride in a clean bead and want to work alongside other skilled welders who hold the same standard, this is a shop where that craftsmanship actually matters and gets noticed. You'll work in a tight 2–3 person crew, moving containers down the line, with real ownership over your section of the work.

This is not entry-level. We're looking for welders who already know their way around a MIG gun and don't need to be taught the basics.

What You'll Be Doing

• Running .045" and .052" bare wire MIG on container fabrication, completely welding up units after tacking
• Welding side posts, stitches (tack to tack, zero holes), end caps, corner wraps, and double-pass hinge welds
• Welding in every position — flat, vertical, overhead
• Grinding welds and end caps to a clean finish
• Reading production schedules and hitting a 1-hour finish-weld target per standard container
• Operating an overhead crane and working from a ladder in and out of containers

What You Bring

• 3–5+ years of MIG welding experience, ideally in fabrication or heavy steel work
• Ability to set up and dial in your own MIG welder rather than working off someone else's settings
• Comfort welding in multiple positions, including overhead and confined spaces
• Working knowledge of plate/gauge thickness (able to tell ¼" from 7 ga., 10 ga., and 12 ga. on sight)
• Tape measure proficiency for layout
• Physical ability to lift/carry up to 60 lbs, climb ladders, and work in a constant state of alertness
• Ability to pass a hands-on welding test
• A team mindset — this role runs as a 2–3 person crew and depends on everyone pulling their weight

What Sets Strong Candidates Apart

• Experience with sealed/leak-critical welding
• Speed without sacrificing quality — our benchmark is a clean, sealed container within 1 hour
• Fabrication knowledge beyond welding alone

Benefits
