Overview

We are seeking precision-driven pipefitters and TIG pipe welders to support the fabrication and installation of high-purity stainless steel piping systems. This is a 8-12-week W2 contract role with strong potential for full-time hire based on performance, skill, and reliability.

You’ll be working in a clean, high-spec manufacturing environment, fabricating complex sanitary and industrial-grade process piping for global water purification, pharmaceutical, and industrial sanitation systems. Your ability to read blueprints, interpret isometric pipe drawings, and execute clean, consistent welds will directly support systems deployed in some of the world’s most critical environments.

This is an excellent opportunity for skilled tradespeople who take pride in precision layout, measurement, and high-integrity welds, and who thrive in structured, safety-conscious teams.
