We are seeking a skilled and dependable Mid-Level Fabrication Technician to support the production of precision aerospace metal components. The successful candidate will have hands-on experience with metalworking tools and fabrication techniques and a solid understanding of aerospace quality and safety standards. This role is essential to producing high-integrity parts used in flight-critical assemblies.
Fabricate, cut, bend, and form aerospace-grade metals (aluminum, titanium, stainless steel) to meet engineering specifications.
Operate fabrication equipment such as press brakes, shears, punch presses, grinders, and drill presses.
Perform intermediate welding (TIG preferred), riveting, and mechanical fastening of aerospace components.
Read and interpret complex blueprints, technical drawings, and job travelers.
Conduct in-process inspection and measurements using calipers, height gauges, and other precision tools.
Perform surface finishing, deburring, and assembly preparation.
Collaborate with engineers and quality inspectors to address non-conformities and implement corrective actions.
Maintain accurate work documentation, material traceability, and production logs.
Follow 5S and EHS (Environmental, Health, and Safety) standards at all times.
Precision Metal Fabrication: Accurately fabricate parts to meet aerospace dimensional and quality standards.
Tool and Equipment Mastery: Operate fabrication machines and hand tools with minimal supervision.
Blueprint and GD&T Interpretation: Understand and work from detailed fabrication drawings and tolerances.
Quality Control: Ensure parts meet inspection criteria through proactive quality checks.
Process Adherence: Follow documented work instructions and fabrication procedures aligned with AS9100/ISO standards.
Team Collaboration: Work effectively with production, engineering, and quality teams to ensure on-time delivery.
Technical diploma or certification in metal fabrication, welding, or mechanical technology.
2–5 years of hands-on experience in aerospace or precision metal fabrication.
Proficiency in operating fabrication tools and interpreting technical documents.
Working knowledge of aerospace materials, safety requirements, and quality standards (e.g., AS9100).
Familiarity with TIG welding and precision sheet metal fabrication is an advantage.
Strong attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and ability to work independently.
