Job Description
An Argon Welder and Fabricator (primarily TIG/GTAW) cuts, shapes, and joins metal components—specifically stainless steel, aluminum, or specialized alloys—using argon gas shielding to create high-precision, clean welds. They interpret blueprints, operate fabrication machinery (saws, grinders), and ensure structural integrity while adhering to safety regulations.
Key Responsibilities
• Precision Welding: Perform high-quality TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) welding using argon shielding to join metal parts, often in challenging positions (vertical, overhead).
• Fabrication & Assembly: Cut, shape, and fit metal components according to engineering drawings and blueprints.
• Metal Preparation: Grind, sand, and clean metal surfaces prior to welding and finish parts after welding to meet quality standards.
• Quality Inspection: Inspect welds for flaws, verify dimensions using calipers/rulers, and perform QC checks.
• Machine Operation: Use specialized machinery such as saws, shearers, and plasma cutters, as well as maintaining welding equipment.
• Safety Compliance: Adhere to safety protocols, including wearing protective gear, maintaining a clean workspace, and proper handling of gas tanks.
Requirements and Qualifications
• Experience: Usually 2+ years of experience in welding and metal fabrication, often within manufacturing or specialized industries (e.g., stainless steel, sculptures & artworks).
• Technical Skills: Proficiency in TIG welding (Argon) is mandatory; knowledge of MIG and Stick welding is often a plus.
• Technical Drawing Reading: Ability to read and interpret blue prints, welding symbols, and schematics.
• Physical Stamina: Ability to lift heavy materials, stand for long periods, and work in tight spaces.
Different welding mediums. MS, SS, Aluminum, Bronze, Brass.
Job Type: Full-time
Pay: AED1,800.00 - AED2,000.00 per month

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers about Welder Jobs
What is the minimum wage for Welder Jobs in United Arab Emirates?
The Ministry of Human Resources and Emiratisation sets no statutory minimum wage for welders in the private sector as of 2026. Employers must pay at least AED 4,000 per month for skilled welders under standard work contracts registered with MoHRE. Overtime rates are fixed at 1.25 times the hourly rate for hours beyond 8 per day.
What visa and work permit requirements apply for international welders in UAE in 2026?
International welders require a work permit sponsored by a MoHRE-approved employer followed by a residence visa issued through ICP. The permit costs AED 300 for issuance and must be renewed every 2 years with a valid passport and medical fitness certificate. Quota-based approvals require the employer to maintain a 2:1 ratio of skilled expatriates to Emiratis in construction roles.
What education and experience are required to qualify for welder jobs in UAE?
MoHRE classifies welders as skilled workers requiring a minimum of 2 years documented experience plus a valid welding certification such as AWS or equivalent. Applicants must hold at least a secondary school certificate and pass a trade test conducted by approved centres before contract registration.
What documents are needed to apply for welder positions through official UAE channels?
Applications require a valid passport, attested educational certificates, experience letters, medical fitness report from a MoHRE-approved centre, and a no-objection certificate if changing employers. All documents must be submitted via the MoHRE e-services portal by 31 December 2026 for new contracts.
