Build More Than a Career. Help Build the Next Generation.

We train welders for pipeline, structural, and fab work, and we hire the people who make that training possible. Instructors in the booth, staff behind the scenes, crews keeping the shop running. Every job here puts a student closer to a career.

WHY WORK WITH US

Founded by Welders. Still Run Like It.

Welders started this school because training in the trade wasn’t good enough. That mindset still runs the place. Students come here to change their future, and every job on this team, instructor to admissions to operations, gets them closer to it.

An impact that lasts. The work you do reaches past the student, to their family, their employer, their community.

People who take ownership. We hire people who solve problems on their own and show up for their team.

One shared goal. Every seat on this team, from the booth to the front office, works toward building the next generation of skilled tradespeople.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

A Team Worth Joining.

Purpose-Driven Work

Your work puts students into careers and helps close the skilled-welder shortage this country’s felt for years.

A Team That Cares

You’ll work next to people who know the trade and back each other up on and off the shop floor.

Opportunities to Grow

We’re growing fast, and that means more room for our people to take on new responsibility and move up.

A Culture of Ownership

Take initiative, fix what’s broken, finish what you start. We trust our people to run with it.

TOTAL COMPENSATION

Investing In The People Who Power Our Mission.

Our people are the heart of everything we do. Join our full-time team and you’re not just taking a job, you’re joining a mission to build skilled welders and open doors to lifelong careers. We take real care of the people who make that mission possible.

Health & Wellness

A high-deductible medical plan, 100% employer-paid for you and your family, so there’s no monthly premium out of your pocket. We also put up to $1,000 a year into your HSA to help cover out-of-pocket costs. Dental and vision round out the coverage.

Financial Security

Company-provided life insurance for peace of mind, plus a 401(k) with a company match up to 3.5% to help you build toward your future.

Time to Rest & Recharge

Generous vacation and sick leave starting day one, with unlimited PTO available to eligible employees.

Great work starts with well-supported people. When you invest your skills in our students, we invest in you.
