Think Beyond The Label Jobs

JOB REQUIREMENTS: Use hand-welding or flame-cutting equipment to weld or join metal components or to fill holes, indentations, or seams of fabricated metal products. Use welding equipment to weld or join metal components or to fill holes, indentations, or seams of fabricated metal products. Analyze engineering drawings, blueprints, specifications, sketches, work orders, and material safety data sheets to plan layout, assembly, and welding operations. Check grooves, angles, or gap allowances, using micrometers, calipers, and precision measuring instruments. Chip or grind off excess weld, slag, or spatter, using hand scrapers or power chippers, portable grinders, or arc-cutting equipment. Clamp, hold, tack-weld, heat-bend, grind or bolt component parts to obtain required configurations and positions for welding. Clean or degrease parts, using wire brushes, portable grinders, or chemical baths. Lay out, position, align, and secure parts and assemblies prior to assembly, using straightedges, combination squares, calipers, and rulers. Mark or tag material with proper job number, piece marks, and other identifying marks as required. Monitor the fitting, burning, and welding processes to avoid overheating of parts or warping, shrinking, distortion, or expansion of material. Operate manual or semi-automatic welding equipment to fuse metal segments, using processes such as gas tungsten arc, gas metal arc, flux-cored arc, plasma arc, shielded metal arc, resistance welding, and submerged arc welding. Operate metal shaping, straightening, and bending machines, such as brakes and shears. Operate safety equipment and use safe work habits. Prepare all material surfaces to be welded, ensuring that there is no loose or thick scale, slag, rust, moisture, grease, or other foreign matter. Preheat workpieces prior to welding or bending, using torches or heating furnaces. 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. Remove rough spots from workpieces, using portable grinders, hand files, or scrapers. Weld components in flat, vertical, or overhead positions. Weld separately or in combination, using aluminum, stainless steel, cast iron, and other alloys. Connect and turn regulator valves to activate and adjust gas flow and pressure so that desired flames are obtained. Cut, contour, and bevel metal plates and structural shapes to dimensions as specified by blueprints, layouts, work orders, and templates, using powered saws, hand shears, or chipping knives. ***** OTHER EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS: An Associate Degree is preferred, prior welding certifications and experience are required. Experience in welding/fabricating both steel and aluminum is preferred. Ability to weld from ladders or scaffolding, in tanks and other confined spaces, and in multiple positions will be required. ***** APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: Apply Online: burgerboat.com Apply In Person: Burger Boat Company 1811 Spring Street Manitowoc, WI 54220 Mail a Rsum: Burger Boat Company Attn: Human Resources 1811 Spring Street Manitowoc, WI 54220 E-Mail a Rsum: recruit@burgerboat.com
