Job Description:
We are seeking an experienced Welder/Fabricator to join our team. This role is for a true fabricator, not just a production welder. The right candidate can take a set of prints, plan the build, and execute it from raw material through final install. This role involves customizing truck bodies, building components from scratch, and ensuring all work meets safety and quality standards.
Key Responsibilities:
- Perform MIG welding on aluminum, stainless steel, and carbon steel.
- Fabricate and assemble custom truck bodies, racks, brackets, and upfit components from raw materials.
- Read and interpret blueprints and drawings, then translate them into finished products with minimal supervision.
- Lay out, measure, cut, bend, and fit materials using fabrication equipment.
- Operate shop equipment including press brake, shear, saws, drills, and grinders.
- Plan fabrication steps, material usage, and sequencing to build efficiently and accurately.
- Install truck accessories such as toolboxes, racks, and other custom features.
- Troubleshoot fitment issues and make adjustments as needed in real time.
- Ensure all work meets company and industry safety and quality standards.
- Maintain a clean and organized work environment.
Qualifications:
- Minimum 3+ years of fabrication experience (truck upfit, automotive, or similar industry preferred).
- Strong MIG welding skills.
- Proven ability to read and work from blueprints without constant oversight.
- Experience using a press brake and shear.
- Ability to build parts from raw material, not just assemble pre-cut components.
- Strong understanding of measurements, layout, and tolerances.
- Mechanical aptitude and problem-solving ability.
- Ability to work in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.
- Welding certifications are a plus, but not required.
Interview Process:

Benefits:

- Health, dental, and vision insurance.
