Cambridge Pro Fab Inc. is looking for an experienced Senior Fitter to join our growing fabrication team.

This is a senior-level opportunity for an experienced fitter with a strong background in structural steel, heavy platework and complex custom fabrication.

The successful candidate will be responsible for advanced layout, fit-up and assembly of large fabricated components, working directly from complex engineered drawings and maintaining tight dimensional tolerances. This person will also play an important role in coaching and mentoring less-experienced fitters and welders.

This is not repetitive production work. Our projects involve large, highly customized fabrications requiring strong blueprint-reading skills, accuracy, problem-solving and extensive hands-on fitting experience.
