Stick Welder / Fabricator | Clinton, MD

If you’re an experienced welder, fabricator, or skilled tradesperson with strong Stick Welder / Fabricator skills, we have an opportunity to put your experience to work installing and welding compactors, chutes, balers, and related equipment.

Stick welding is a core part of this role and will be used 100% in the field. You’ll work alongside our install team on compactor installations and related projects, working with used, dirty, and weathered metal. This is a field-based position with a company-provided take-home service van. Experience welding on compactors, cans, or similar equipment is a plus.
