About The Role

As a Sheet Metal Fabricator, you'll fabricate, form, and install the sheet metal components that outfit maritime vessels: ventilation ductwork, structural foundations and brackets, bulkhead liners, furniture (bunks, lockers, cabinets), ladders, handrails, and wet-space linings. You'll work from the shop floor to the structure: laying out from drawings, cutting and forming on shears, brakes, and rolls, then fitting and installing into compartments. The work spans thin-gauge stainless and aluminum ductwork to heavier structural brackets and foundations.

What You'Ll Do

Fabrication Lay out, mark, cut, and form sheet metal components from engineering drawings, sketches, and templates Operate shears, press brakes, rolls, hand brakes, notchers, and nibblers to form parts to drawing tolerances Cut material using plasma arc, laser, shears, and hand tools Fabricate ventilation ductwork: transitions, elbows, tees, plenums, and damper assemblies Fabricate structural components: foundations, brackets, equipment bases, stiffeners, and coamings Build furniture and outfit items: bunks, lockers, cabinets, shelving, ladders, handrails, and enclosures Drill, ream, countersink, and deburr holes for fasteners, rivets, and hardware Operate semi-automated fabrication equipment (plasma tables, laser cutters, CNC press brakes) where available: load programs, set up material, verify first articles Installation & Fit-Up Fit and install fabricated components into maritime structures: ventilation systems, liners, foundations, furniture, and outfit items Scribe, trim, and adjust parts to achieve proper fit against hull curvature, frames, and adjacent structure Install using mechanical fasteners (rivets, screws, bolts), adhesives, and gaskets per procedure Set up and align components using levels, squares, plumb bobs, and laser alignment tools Work with riggers and crane operators to position and install larger assemblies Welding & Joining Perform sheet metal welding on stainless steel, aluminum, carbon steel, and copper-nickel as required Perform spot welding, resistance welding, and brazing where specified Prep joints: clean, fit, tack, and maintain proper gap and alignment for weld quality Maintain weld certifications as required by program and material Quality & Documentation Complete hardcopy and electronic documentation: fabrication travelers, inspection records, material traceability Verify dimensions against drawings using tape measures, calipers, protractors, radius gauges, and templates Maintain compliance with NAVSEA standards, military specifications, and workmanship

Requirements

Identify non-conformances and process through proper disposition channels Prepare completed work for company, customer, and government inspections

Required Qualifications

High school diploma or GED 5+ years of sheet metal fabrication experience: industrial, shipbuilding, or manufacturing environments Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, sketches, and GD&T Proficiency with layout and shop math — geometry, trigonometry, material allowances, bend calculations Experience operating shears, press brakes, rolls, and standard sheet metal shop equipment Experience with material cutting: plasma, shears, or hand method
