Hiring: Fabrication Operations Controller (Metal Shop)

We are building a high-performance metal fabrication operation and need ONE elite operator to run jobs from drawing → production → installation.

This is not a desk job. This is a technical leadership role.

What You Will Own:

  • Read and interpret fabrication drawings (gates, railings, structures)
  • Break jobs into material lists + fabrication steps
  • Estimate full job cost (material + labor + overhead)
  • Set selling price with profit margin
  • Decide manpower (welders, fabricators, installers)
  • Manage shop workflow and production
  • Control quality before delivery

Requirements (non-negotiable):

  • 7+ years in metal fabrication
  • Experience as welder/fabricator + foreman/supervisor
  • Proven job estimation experience
  • Strong understanding of real shop workflow

Do NOT apply if:

  • You cannot estimate jobs from drawings
  • You have only office/project management experience
  • You have never managed a fabrication team

Compensation:

  • Base salary
    • Performance bonus per profitable job
    • Growth opportunities tied to results

Mandatory Step:

All applicants MUST complete a short technical test (real drawing → breakdown + estimate) before interview.

We are hiring for execution, not talk.

Apply via LinkedIn with your experience summary. Qualified candidates will receive the test assignment.

Only serious operators apply.
