- 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

- Full group insurance benefits
- Life insurance and extended health coverage
- Group RRSP

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.
