## Description

## Making the Metals Powering the World

Solcoa is building the next generation of American metalmaking, starting with rare earths — the metals of power and motion. We've developed a new chemistry that converts rare earth oxides into high-purity metals — the materials inside every EV, fighter jet, wind turbine, and data center — cleaner, cheaper, and faster than any conventional process. Now we're scaling it to thousands of tonnes of annual production.

 

## The Role — Technician (TIG Welding, Fabrication & Assembly)

Build the hardware that powers our plants. You’ll fabricate parts, TIG-weld assemblies, operate machine-shop tools, and assemble/commission reactor and support equipment. You bring discipline, craftsmanship, and a safety-first mindset to every task.

 

## What You’ll Do

- TIG weld stainless, carbon, and specialty alloys; prep joints, fit-up, and perform clean, repeatable welds.

- Fabricate brackets, frames, enclosures, and fixtures from prints—cutting, bending, drilling, tapping, and finishing.

- Operate machine shop tools (mills, lathes, drill presses, bandsaws, grinders) for basic machining and rework.

- Assemble mechanical and pneumatic subsystems: flanges, seals, valves, fittings, sensors, and wiring harness routing.

- Read and mark up drawings; hold tolerances; verify dimensions with calipers, micrometers, and gauges.

- Execute SOPs for build, inspection, leak checks, and pressure tests; document work.

- Support prototype builds and on-the-floor debug; implement quick-turn fixes and continuous improvements.

- Maintain a clean, organized shop; enforce safety practices for hot work, lifting/rigging, and compressed gases.

## What You Bring

**Required**

- Proven TIG welding skill on thin sheet and tube (stainless preferred); strong fit-up and finish quality.

- Hands-on fabrication experience and proficiency with common shop tools.

- Ability to read mechanical drawings and follow detailed build procedures.

- Disciplined, reliable execution—on spec, on time, with excellent documentation.

- Comfort working independently in a fast-paced, hardware-first environment.

- Availability to start soon.

**Preferred**

- Experience assembling industrial equipment, reactors, furnaces, or vacuum components.

- Basic machining experience (manual mill/lathe) and simple CAD familiarity for markups.

- Certifications in welding or safety (e.g., AWS, OSHA 10/30) are a plus.
