1st Shift Spot Welder

Spot Welder - Brooklyn Park, MN

Role Overview: We are seeking a detail-oriented Spot Welder to join our metal fabrication team. Unlike MIG or TIG welding, this role focuses on Resistance Spot Welding, using electrical current and pressure to join small precision components. This position is ideal for someone with a background in metal fabrication who enjoys hands-on, repetitive technical work and has a keen eye for structural integrity.
Shift Hours: 1st Shift M-F

Pay: $20/hr - $23hr DOE

Key Responsibilities:

• Precision Joining: Operate spot welding machinery to fuse small metal parts using electrical resistance and pneumatic pressure.
• Component Handling: Accurately position and jig small-to-medium metal components for consistent weld placement.
• Quality Validation: Conduct visual inspections and manual "break tests" or "peel tests" to ensure weld strength and penetration meet specifications.
• Equipment Maintenance: Perform basic tip cleaning and alignment (dressing the electrodes) to maintain high-quality conductivity.
• Safety Compliance: Adhere to all fabrication shop safety protocols, including the use of specialized eye protection and heat-resistant PPE.

• Experience: Previous experience in metal fabrication or a machine shop environment is highly preferred.
• Technical Skill: Basic understanding of metal properties and how heat/pressure affects different gauges of steel or aluminum.
• Manual Dexterity: Ability to handle small parts with precision and maintain high output throughout a shift.
• Medical vs. Fabrication: While medical assembly experience is valued, we are specifically looking for candidates comfortable with the heavier, industrial nature of metalwork.
• Reliability: A strong track record of punctuality and a focus on production deadlines.

• Specialized Skill Building: Gain expertise in resistance welding, a critical process in automotive and industrial manufacturing.
