Are you passionate about racing, precision engineering, and high-performance vehicles? We are seeking a highly skilled and meticulous Motorsports Welder / Fabricator to join our elite engineering team.

In this role, you won't just be joining metal-you will be constructing the backbone of high-performance race cars. You will work closely with design engineers and crew chiefs to fabricate, assemble, and repair critical vehicle components (such as roll cages, suspension members, exhaust systems, and chassis structures) where compromise is not an option. If you thrive under tight deadlines, possess an obsession with millimeter-perfect accuracy, and take pride in "stacking dimes," we want you on our team.



Key Responsibilities

  • Precision Welding: Perform high-quality, defect-free TIG (GTAW) and MIG (GMAW) welding on specialized, thin-gauge motorsports materials including Chromoly (4130), Titanium, Inconel, Aluminum, and Stainless Steel.

  • Custom Fabrication: Read and interpret complex engineering blueprints, CAD drawings, and schematics to fabricate custom, one-off components and assemblies from scratch.

  • Chassis & Roll Cage Construction: Build, fit, and weld structural chassis components and roll cages to strict sanctioning body safety specifications (e.g., FIA, NHRA, IMSA).

  • Machining & Prep: Utilize shop machinery (tubing benders, notchers, bandsaws, lathes, mills, and grinders) to prep materials to exact tolerances before welding.

  • Quality Assurance: Conduct visual and non-destructive inspections of your own welds to ensure structural integrity and flawless aesthetics under high-stress racing conditions.

  • Trackside & Shop Repair: Diagnosing, repairing, and modifying components under tight timelines, occasionally adapting to rapid changes during race prep cycles or trackside events.

  • Collaboration: Work hand-in-hand with engineering, aerodynamics, and assembly teams to iterate and improve vehicle performance and safety.
