Job Description

About the Role

We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated Welding Team Leader to lead and inspire our low-volume, high-mix welding operations. This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll not only guide a small team of welders but also step in on the floor, fitting and welding a wide variety of products yourself. From aluminum and carbon steel to stainless steel, you’ll utilize MIG, TIG, and laser welding on some of the most challenging and rewarding projects we take on—prototypes, specialty runs, and custom builds.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead, mentor, and motivate a small team of welders, fostering a culture of precision, accountability, and pride in workmanship.
  • Work hands-on as a welder/fabricator, capable of fitting and welding across aluminum, stainless steel, and carbon steel materials.
  • Execute welding using multiple processes (MIG, TIG, laser welding) depending on job requirements.
  • Ensure prototypes and low-volume runs are delivered with first-time quality and on schedule.
  • Collaborate with engineering and production teams to solve problems, refine processes, and bring new product concepts to life.
  • Set the tone on the shop floor for safety, quality, and continuous improvement.

What We’re Looking For

  • Proven experience as a skilled welder/fabricator (MIG, TIG, laser).
  • Strong fitting and welding skills across aluminum, stainless, and carbon steel.
  • Previous leadership or team lead experience preferred, but a “lead-by-example” mentality is essential.
  • Ability to thrive in a high-mix, low-volume environment where no two projects are the same.
  • A proactive, hands-on individual who inspires others by working alongside them.
  • Strong communicator with the ability to drive urgency, maintain quality, and motivate a team.

Why Join Us

  • Be part of a forward-thinking company known for innovation and craftsmanship in custom and prototype fabrication.
  • Take ownership of exciting, complex builds that challenge your skills daily.
  • Lead a talented team where your leadership will have a direct impact on output and quality.
  • Competitive pay, benefits, and opportunities for career growth.
