-Good working knowledge of AutoCAD for DXF/DWG generation
-Hands-on experience with aluminum, stainless steel and steel fabrication
-Strong understanding of laser cutting, bending, welding, finishing and assembly processes
-Knowledge of CSA / AWS welding symbols and how to apply them correctly on drawings
-A strong production mindset and excellent autonomy


We also value curiosity, reliability, clear communication and the ability to thrive in a small team where collaboration is essential.

Working Conditions:
-Permanent full-time position
-Based in Montreal - fully on-site
-Day shift: Monday to Friday, 40 hours/week
-Flexible schedule supporting work-life balance
-Salary: $36 to $40/hour depending on experience
-Full group insurance benefits
-Life insurance and extended health coverage
-Group RRSP
-Free on-site parking
-Modern manufacturing environment with quality equipment
-Diverse, technical and high-impact projects


Remote work is only available occasionally for exceptional situations, as being close to production is essential for success in this role.


Conclusion: If you enjoy real manufacturing environments, custom projects and roles where your technical expertise directly impacts production, this opportunity is definitely worth a conversation.
Looking forward to connecting with you.
