Welder/Fabricator

About the Role:

At Custom Cubes, we’re not a typical fabrication shop - we’re building a high-performance, organized, and safety-driven production environment as we scale rapidly.

Reporting to the Branch Manager, the Welder/Fabricator plays a key role in fabricating and assembling custom container-based structures. Beyond welding, this role contributes to improving how we work—supporting our 5S and continuous improvement initiatives to build a cleaner, safer, and more efficient shop.

This is an opportunity for experienced welders who take pride in their work and want to grow with a company that is actively investing in its people, processes, and future.

• Perform welding and fabrication using GMAW (MIG) processes on structural steel and custom builds.
• Layout, fit-up, and assemble components based on drawings and specifications.
• Read and interpret fabrication drawings, welding procedures, and project requirements.
• Troubleshoot welding and fabrication as well as construction issues and support practical solutions on the shop floor.
• Maintain a clean, organized, and safe workspace aligned with our 5S standards before, during and at the end of each day.
• Collaborate with team members to meet production targets and quality expectations.
• Actively contribute ideas to improve workflow, efficiency, and quality.
• Support and maintain high safety standards in all tasks.
• Prepping surfaces and masking.
• Apply coatings using an airless sprayer.
• Prepping materials in preparation for each job.

What We’re Looking For:

• 5+ years of hands-on welding and fabrication experience.
• Strong proficiency in GMAW (MIG); multi-process experience is an asset.
• CWB certification (or ability to pass testing in all positions).
• Red Seal certification is a strong asset.
• Ability to read and interpret shop drawings and welding procedures.
• Solid understanding of fabrication tolerances and quality expectations.
• Reliable, team-oriented, and takes ownership of work.
• Strong work ethic with attention to detail and pride in craftsmanship.
• Experience painting with an airless sprayer.
• General knowledge gained from experience, of the following skills: Carpentry, door and window installation, wall paneling, and finishing in steel studded units.
• Experience in working safely with a variety of power tools.
• Specialized trades experience in addition to 3 years of general trades experience, is considered an asset.

What Makes This Role Different:

• Growing company with real opportunities - strong performers can grow into Lead Hand, Supervisor, or specialized roles.
• Clear path for advancement - we look to promote from within as the team and operation continue to grow.
• Building a better shop - active implementation of 5S and Lean practices.
• Team-based environment - clear structure, accountability, and support.
• Variety of work - custom projects, not repetitive production line work.

Safety & Culture:

At Custom Cubes, safety is part of how we work every day.

We use 5S to keep the shop organized, efficient, and safe. Maintaining a clean and orderly workspace is an expectation for all team members.
Everyone is responsible for their own work area and for contributing to a safe, respectful, and accountable work environment.
