Build a Long-Term Career in Industrial Painting

Are you an experienced Industrial Painter looking for steady work, good pay, overtime, and long-term job security?

Join an established structural steel fabrication company with more than 53 years in business and a secured backlog of work through 2031. This is an opportunity to build a career with a stable company—not just take another job.

You'll apply protective coatings and high-build epoxies to large structural steel assemblies, water control gates, hydraulic-driven hoists, and other custom steel fabrications used on major dam, hydro, and construction projects.

What You'll Do

Apply industrial protective coatings to large structural steel assemblies and fabricated components
Operate airless and air-powered paint sprayers
Apply high-build epoxies according to project specifications
Follow SSPC coating and painting practices
Perform wet-film thickness, dry-film thickness, holiday, and other coating inspections using NDE equipment
Evaluate surface preparation, including anchor patterns and blasting conditions
Identify welds, excessive weld spatter, and other surface conditions requiring repair
Estimate required paint quantities, materials, and application time
Coordinate with the shop foreman regarding drying time, workspace, and material layout
Maintain paint equipment, spray equipment, brushes, tools, and paint booth in clean working condition
Follow OSHA, EPA, and company safety and environmental requirements
Work safely from scaffolding when required
Manage multiple projects and coating requirements while maintaining quality standards

What We're Looking For

Previous industrial, commercial, structural steel, or production painting experience
Experience using airless and/or air-powered paint sprayers
Experience applying high-build epoxy coatings
Ability to consistently achieve a uniform, quality coating application
Ability to read and follow project specifications and coating requirements
Ability to estimate paint/material quantities and job completion times
Comfortable working from scaffolding
Ability to work independently and as part of a team
Ability to pass required paint/application testing, including a uniform application test
Strong attention to detail and commitment to quality
Vocational/technical training is a plus, but equivalent hands-on experience is valued

Why Join Us?

$25-$32/hour based on experience and skill
Steady, long-term work with a backlog through 2031
Overtime opportunities
1st shift schedule: Monday-Friday, 6:00 AM-2:30 PM
Career growth and opportunities to expand your industrial coating skills
Established company with 53+ years of experience
Small-company environment where your work and contributions matter
