How this job compares in Cincinnati, OH

Pay in context

At roughly $32/hr, this posting sits about 23% above the $26/hr median for welding jobs across Ohio — toward the top of a $23–$30/hr middle band drawn from 107 postings with published pay. Put another way, it pays more than about 80% 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.

What you'll be running

This posting calls for TIG. TIG (GTAW) uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode with filler added by hand, giving the operator the most control of any process. It is slow, demanding, and the standard for stainless, aluminum, and anything where the bead has to look as good as it holds.
