At roughly $34/hr, this posting sits about 20% above the $28/hr median for welding jobs across Georgia — toward the top of a $22–$37/hr middle band drawn from 132 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 70% of the comparable postings we have wage data for. Pay that far above local median usually comes attached to something: a harder cert requirement, travel, night shift, or overtime that isn't really optional. Worth establishing which before you accept.
