Welder / Fabricator

COMPANY OVERVIEW

PowerLift Doors of Oregon designs, builds, and installs custom hydraulic doors for aircraft hangars, shops, farms, and commercial and architectural buildings across Oregon, Western Idaho, and Southern Washington. As a locally owned PowerLift location, we build every door in-house on an all-welded steel frame — and we're growing. We're currently hiring two welders/fabricators for our Beavercreek shop.

ROLE SUMMARY

As a Welder/Fabricator, you'll build custom hydraulic door frames and components from the ground up — reading prints, cutting and preparing steel, and welding complete, all-welded assemblies to a high standard. This is hands-on, precision fabrication work for someone who takes pride in building things that last.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

• Read and interpret shop drawings and prints to fabricate doors to exact specifications.

• Weld steel assemblies using FCAW and SMAW processes.

• Operate fabrication equipment including band saw, plasma cutter, and grinders.

• Measure, cut, fit, and prep steel components for assembly.

• Build clean, square, all-welded door frames that meet PowerLift quality standards.

• Keep a safe, organized work area and follow all shop safety practices.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS

• Ability to read and interpret prints and shop drawings.

• Proficiency with FCAW and SMAW welding.

• Experience operating fabrication equipment (band saw, plasma cutter, grinders).

• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to quality work.

• Reliable, safety-minded, and comfortable on your feet in a shop environment.

NICE TO HAVE

• Prior structural or heavy-steel fabrication experience.

• Forklift or overhead crane experience.

WHAT WE OFFER

• Full-time, stable work with a growing, locally owned company. Competitive pay based on experience.
