A Day (or Night) in the Role

On shift, you’ll study detailed blueprints, lay out members, and perform accurate fit-up before welding. You’ll cut, assemble, and tack with care, then run clean passes while controlling heat and distortion. Throughout, you’ll check your own work to ensure it meets spec—because quality is your signature.
