· Fit, square, align, and tack metal components prior to final welding.
· Prepare materials using grinders, cutting torches, plasma cutters, saws, and metal prep tools.
· Interpret weld symbols, fabrication drawings, and PATRIOT-produced blueprints.
· Inspect completed welds for porosity, undercut, lack of fusion, distortion, and other defects.
· Operate cutting torches and perform safe thermal cutting.
· Build and fabricate structural and custom assemblies according to specifications.
· Maintain welding equipment, replace consumables, and troubleshoot welding issues.
· Follow all PATRIOT safety procedures, including proper PPE and safe handling of hot work materials
· Read a tape measure, take measurements, and make basic math calculations
· Positive, team-oriented attitude.
Qualifications:
