Job Description:

Build your skills. Build your career.

Miller Electric is looking for an Entry-Level Fabricator to join our Components Division. This is an opportunity to learn the skilled trade of metal fabrication while working alongside experienced fabricators and gaining hands-on experience with manufacturing equipment.

You'll learn how to operate and set up equipment used to transform sheet metal into components, including turrets, punch presses, press brakes, lasers, shears, spot welders, and PEM nut machines. You'll also develop skills in reading blueprints, using measuring tools, inspecting parts, and understanding how fabrication processes work together.

No previous fabrication experience is required. If you're mechanically inclined, enjoy working with your hands, are willing to learn, and want to develop a skilled-trade career, we'll provide the training and experience to help you build those skills.

As you develop your skills and demonstrate proficiency, you'll have the opportunity to expand your capabilities through cross-training throughout the fabrication department.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS:

  • Assist with the setup and operation of fabrication equipment, including turrets, punching machines, presses, press brakes, lasers, shears, spot welders, and PEM nut machines.
  • Learn and apply proper operating procedures for fabrication equipment under the direction of experienced fabricators and leadership.
  • Read and interpret basic blueprints, assembly drawings, bills of material, and production documentation with training and guidance.
  • Use basic measuring tools, such as tape measures and other precision measuring devices, to verify part dimensions and support quality requirements.
  • Perform in-process and finished-part inspections to ensure work meets established quality standards and specifications.
  • Safely handle, stage, and move materials and components throughout the fabrication process.
  • Follow established safety procedures, work instructions, and standard operating procedures.
  • Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area.
  • Participate in cross-training within the Fabrication and Mechanical Components departments to develop knowledge and proficiency in multiple processes.
  • Communicate effectively with team members, trainers, and supervisors regarding production, quality, safety, and equipment concerns.
  • Demonstrate continued progress in learning fabrication processes and operating equipment.
  • Perform other duties as assigned to support department operations.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

  • High school Diploma or GED equivalent.
  • Safety-minded.
  • Basic math and communication skills.
  • Ability to read a tape measure and willingness to learn blueprint and drawing interpretation.
  • Mechanical aptitude and an interest in manufacturing, fabrication, or skilled trades.
  • Ability to learn and follow established work instructions, safety procedures, and operating processes.
  • Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a team.
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to producing quality work.
  • Willingness to learn, accept coaching, and develop new skills.
  • Willingness to cross-train and work in multiple areas of the department.
  • Basic computer skills.
  • Ability to meet the physical requirements of the position, including standing for extended periods and lifting up to 50 lbs.
  • Ability to work extended shifts/overtime when production needs require it.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
