A steel fabrication workshop in the Spitalle zone outside Durres is taking on MIG/MAG welders for its structural line. The shop builds hall frames and access platforms for local contractors and ships part of the work to Italy. Permanent contract from the first day.
About role
You weld steel profiles and plate in MIG/MAG on jigs, following the drawing and the weld symbol given for each joint.

You measure the frame with a tape and a square before it leaves the jig, stamp your own work and report any porosity to the welding foreman.
