Position Summary
Paradigm Ironworks is seeking an experienced Fabrication Manager / Working Shop Foreman to lead day-to-day operations in our structural steel fabrication shop in Riverside, California.
 
 This is a hands-on leadership position. The successful candidate will work alongside the crew when needed while taking ownership of shop organization, workflow, productivity, quality, safety, and planning.

Responsibilities
·       Lead and coordinate daily shop production.
·       Plan work in advance and communicate priorities to the crew.
·       Read and interpret structural steel shop drawings.
·       Perform layout, fitting, welding, and fabrication when required.
·       Assign work based on employee skill level and project priorities.
·       Track fabrication progress and communicate status to management.
·       Coordinate with Operations, Project Management, Purchasing, and Quality Control.
·       Maintain an organized, clean, and efficient fabrication shop.
·       Ensure parts are identified, labeled, staged, and ready for delivery.
·       Monitor workmanship and company quality standards.
·       Train and mentor welders, fitters, and apprentices.
·       Enforce safe work practices and end-of-day shutdown procedures.
·       Identify improvement opportunities and implement practical solutions.
·       Take ownership of issues and always close the loop.

Qualifications
·       8+ years of structural steel or miscellaneous metals fabrication is a must.
·       Previous foreman, supervisor, or shop leadership experience is a must.
·       Ability to read structural steel shop drawings.
·       Strong fitting, layout, fabrication, and welding knowledge.
·       Excellent organizational and leadership skills.
·       Ability to think ahead and plan production.
·       Strong communication with shop and office personnel.
·       AWS certifications are a plus.
·       Dependable, accountable, and safety-minded.

What We're Looking For
We want someone who walks into the shop each morning and asks:
 
 • What are we building today?
 • What needs to be ready tomorrow?
 • What is coming next week?
 • What could stop us, and what do we need to do about it now?
 
 We're looking for a leader who takes ownership, develops people, communicates clearly, and continuously improves the shop.

Benefits
·       Medical benefits
·       Paid Time Off
·       401(k)
·       Overtime opportunities
