Mig Welder

  • Roselle, IL
  • 22 - 28 USD Hourly

We’re hiring a skilled MIG Welder who takes pride in precision, craftsmanship, and building high-quality work from detailed mechanical blueprints. This is a hands-on fabrication role — not repetitive production — focused on creating large, custom industrial enclosures from sheet metal and structural components.

If you enjoy layout, cutting, fitting, and assembling complex builds while holding tight tolerances, this is a great opportunity to put your skills to work and grow long-term.

What You’ll Do

  • Perform high-quality MIG welding on sheet metal and structural components

  • Read and interpret detailed mechanical blueprints

  • Measure, cut, fit, and assemble parts to precise tolerances

  • Use fabrication tools, power tools, and overhead cranes safely

  • Support full build processes from layout through final assembly

  • Work indoors and outdoors depending on project needs

TIG welding experience is a plus for finer or technical work.

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years fabrication or welding experience (5+ preferred)

  • Strong blueprint reading and dimensional measuring skills

  • Experience welding to tolerance (not high-volume production)

  • Comfortable using saws, grinders, drills, and fabrication equipment

  • Willing to work extended hours as production ramps up

Schedule & Pay

  • Contract-to-hire (6 months)

  • $22–$28/hr (have seen up to $30/hr for top experience)

  • Standard shift: 6:00 AM – 2:30 PM

  • Often adjusted to 5:00 AM – 4:30 PM (Mon–Fri) + half-day Saturday during busy periods

With overtime up to ~65 hours/week, estimated total annual earnings can range from approximately $90,000 to $121,000+, depending on hourly rate and hours worked.

Interview Process

  • One onsite interview with a welding test

You should be proficient in:

  • Welding Setups for Production
  • Blueprint Reading

Machines & technologies you'll use:

  • MIG Welder
