We are hiring a FULL-TIME Custom Product Manufacturing and Assembly Employee at a small company where hard work is recognized. This position offers opportunities for growth and pay increases, ideal for those who can read a tape measure, cut straight lines, and operate power tools.
At roughly $20/hr, this posting comes in about 23% below the $26/hr median for welding jobs in Cleveland, OH, where the middle half runs $21–$26/hr across 10 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 10% of the comparable postings we have wage data for. That gap is worth raising directly — in a market this size there is normally room to negotiate toward the median, particularly if you already hold the certifications the posting asks for.
