Work Environment

The role is based in a traditional manufacturing facility with a non-climate-controlled environment that remains comfortable due to strong airflow throughout the building. You will work in a hands-on production setting using welding equipment, fabrication tools, and measuring instruments, following standard safety practices and procedures.
