Job Description
Welder II (Mechanical Focus) &- Power Plant | Relocation Offered | $50&-$58 /hr Union Benefits
Location: Southeastern Montana
We’re hiring a Welder II for a well-established power plant in Southeastern Montana—someone who enjoys hands-on, heavy industrial work and wants more than repetitive shop welding. This role blends advanced welding skills with mechanical maintenance, giving you the chance to work on critical plant equipment and systems.
If you like tearing things down, rebuilding them, and getting them running better than before—you’ll fit right in.
What You’ll Be Doing
- Perform structural and stainless steel welding in all positions, including pipe welding (GTAW/SMAW)
- Troubleshoot, repair, and overhaul pumps, compressors, valves, and gearboxes
- Complete full equipment tear-downs and rebuilds, including bearings, impellers, and rotating components
- Perform precision alignments and balancing on fans, pumps, and other rotating equipment
- Read and interpret blueprints, technical manuals, and schematics
- Support preventative maintenance and maintain accurate equipment history
What We’re Looking For
- 3 years of power plant or heavy industrial mechanic/welding experience OR completion of a formal apprenticeship program (6000 hours)
- Strong skills in pipe and structural welding (all positions), including stainless steel
- Ability to pass a 6G GTAW/SMAW pipe welding test
- Experience with mechanical systems (pumps, compressors, rotating equipment)
- Comfortable using precision measuring tools (micrometers, calipers, dial indicators)
Why This Role Stands Out
- Top-tier pay with a fast track to $58.50/hr.
- Variety in your day—not just welding, but full mechanical involvement
- Union position with strong retirement benefits (8% 6% match)
- Relocation assistance provided
- Work on critical infrastructure in a stable, essential industry
