As a mobile welder, your responsibilities are to travel to a customer or client to offer portable welding services.

If you own your own business, you need a van or truck to transport equipment and meet with customers. You can find both regular and one-time clients for your business. However, you can also work for a company that provides welding services. Mobile welders complete most work during regular business hours but sometimes offer emergency repair services on evenings and weekends.
