Job Description

EDUCATION :

At Burger Boat Company, we don't just build boats—we create some of the world’s most beautiful yachts on the water! With a legacy of excellence in crafting luxury yachts and custom vessels, we’re on the lookout for skilled Welders and Fabricators to be a part of our cutting-edge team. If you're passionate about precision and craftsmanship and you’re ready to make waves in the maritime industry, this is your chance to shine!

SUMMARY :

Welders / Shipfitters are expected to perform certified aluminum welding in all positions

with either MIG or TIG machines to classification society requirements, whether in shops or

on boats. Must be able to work from drawings, welding prints, specifications, bills-ofmaterial,

memos, other information or management instruction. Welders / Shipfitters must

be able to weld components as directed by fitters or metal fabricators : assists fitter or

performs fitter functions to position, align, and fit together properly fabricated and prepared

plates, structural shapes and weldments in preparation for assembly into the

hull / superstructure or other fabricated parts. Welders are responsible for proper cleaning,

preparation and welding of all components.

Department : Metal Fabrication

Reports to : Metals Manager

WORKING MATERIALS :

Must be able to work with various welding alloy wires, coated and uncoated sticks, inert and

consumable gasses; aluminum plates and extrusions, stainless steel and occasional nonferrous

materials common to yacht building practices.

TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT :

rolls, grinders, chippers, air-saws, jigs, fixtures, cutting equipment, welder, clamps and hand

and power tools.

Each person must directly supply their own hand tools per the attached tool list and must

have them available in the yard and in working order throughout their employment period.

SKILL LEVELS AND ADVANCEMENT :

Welder / Shipfitter employees are categorized into three different skill levels beginning with

level 1, with the highest level being 3. The advancement of an employee to a higher

skill / wage level shall be made only when the Company has a continuing need for an

employee to perform work at that level and when the employee convincingly meets the next

level’s criteria. An employee’s immediate supervisor may recommend that they be

advanced. This nomination will be reviewed by at least the Director of Manufacturing for

approval with input from the Metals Manager or Welding Coordinator.

Employees should expect that based on the ability of the person involved, they may move up

a level or stay at the current level for longer periods than others working around them. In

extremely rare cases, some may remain at their current skill level indefinitely. Although this

would not be the Company’s goal, and likely not the goal of most employees, management

does recognize that certain individuals are either unable or unwilling to learn the skills

required to attain a higher level. Some employees may learn and adapt more quickly than
