Welder

JOB REQUIREMENTS: Operate safety equipment and use safe work habits.

Weld components in flat, vertical, or overhead positions. Examine

workpieces for defects and measure workpieces with straightedges or

templates to ensure conformance with specifications. Recognize, set up,

and operate hand and power tools common to the welding trade, such as

shielded metal arc and gas metal arc welding equipment. Select and

install torches, torch tips, filler rods, and flux, according to welding

chart specifications or types and thicknesses of metals. Determine

required equipment and welding methods, applying knowledge of

metallurgy, geometry, and welding techniques. Prepare all material

surfaces to be welded, ensuring that there is no loose or thick scale,

slag, rust, moisture, grease, or other foreign matter. Align and clamp

workpieces together, using rules, squares, or hand tools, or position

items in fixtures, jigs, or vises. Connect and turn regulator valves to

activate and adjust gas flow and pressure so that desired flames are

obtained. Melt and apply solder along adjoining edges of workpieces to

solder joints, using soldering irons, gas torches, or

electric-ultrasonic equipment. Weld separately or in combination, using

aluminum, stainless steel, cast iron, and other alloys. Use fire

suppression methods in industrial emergencies. Analyze engineering

drawings, blueprints, specifications, sketches, work orders, and

material safety data sheets to plan layout, assembly, and operations.

\*\*\*\*\* OTHER EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS: Key skills, abilities

and knowledge: o Working knowledge of standard welding principles and

techniques including inert gas welding (e.g., TIG, MIG). o Ability to

read and understand weld specs, shop drawings, job layouts and

blueprints. o Ability to use basic math, measuring instruments (rules,

etc.), gauges and templates. o Knowledge of working properties of

structural metals and welding materials. o Skill in using and

maintaining welding equipment and related tools of the trade. o

Knowledge of occupational hazards and the ability to follow safe work

practices. o Ability to communicate and work effectively with others.

Experiential: Three or more years of general welding experience.
