Welder/Fabricator

As a Welder Fabricator, you will work on projects as big as furnaces or as small as piping, but your job is essentially the same, designing, cutting and shaping metal. A Welder Fabricator may be involved in the creation of new structures or repairing existing ones. Welder Fabricators are generally part of a team of other skilled workers; however, their duties are often performed with minimal supervision so Welder Fabricators must be comfortable working independently in a factory setting.
