Job Description

Overview

We're hiring MIG Welders for our custom steel fabrication shop in Birmingham, AL.

We manufacture specialty alloy steel wear plate and custom wear solutions for industries like recycling, paper mills, and energy plants. You'll fit and weld parts from abrasion- and impact-resistant steel plate and structural steel, working from production drawings and AWS welding symbols.

This is a fitting-and-welding role, not a single-machine job: you'll run MIG, flux core, and stick, cut with mixed-gas and plasma torches, and prep jobs with beveling, labeling, and bracing before final welding.
