Job Description

Job DescriptionJob Description

We're a small manufacturing company in Pennsylvania building Edgers, Truss Presses, and Rafter Notchers for the lumber and shed-building industries. We're looking for a fabricator who can hold their own on a MIG gun and wants to build real skills alongside a crew that works hard, keeps it real, and has each other's back.

What you'll be doing:

  • Welding on our core product lines - this is the main part of the job
  • Stretches of weeks at a time on machine assembly instead of welding
  • Running a lathe, drill press, and other shop equipment as jobs require
  • Learning our processes from the ground up - you won't be thrown in blind
  • Growing into more responsibility as your skills develop

What you need on day one:

  • Can run a MIG gun decently - we'll teach you the rest
  • Comfortable being flexible - one week it's welding, the next it might be assembly or running other machines
  • Good with your hands and motivated to get work done without someone standing over you
  • Willing to learn, ask questions, and put in the work
  • Reliable and shows up ready to go

What we offer:

  • Full-time position with some flexibility on start/end times
  • $50,000-$75,000, based on experience
  • A hardworking, no-nonsense shop that still treats people like people
  • We're a small, family-owned operation - the shop sits on the same property as our home, so our kids are sometimes around outside (not in the shop). We need someone who's comfortable with that.
  • We're not a rigid, corporate environment, but we are actively building more structure and process as we grow - so you'll have a voice in shaping how things get done
  • Room to grow as you pick up new skills - this isn't a dead-end job

If you're looking to learn a trade, work with your hands on a variety of tasks, and build a career with a company that'll invest in you as you invest in us, we want to hear from you.
