About the Role

Are you passionate about the craft of welding and ready to pass your torch to the next generation of welders? Western Welding Academy is looking for a dynamic Classroom Welding Instructor to join our team of industry leaders who aren’t just teaching — they’re building the welders America needs.


As a Classroom Welding Instructor, you won’t be stuck behind a desk. You’ll lead from both the front of the classroom and inside the welding shop, guiding students through theory and hands-on skill development. This role is about igniting curiosity, reinforcing safety, and shaping confident welders who are ready to tackle any challenge the industry throws their way.

You’ll take charge of:

  • Delivering engaging lessons based on our high-impact curriculum
  • Demonstrating welding principles and practices with clarity and confidence
  • Managing classroom behavior and maintaining a safe, organized workspace
  • Tracking student performance and helping each one reach their full potential
  • Reinforcing safety protocols, cleanliness, and discipline

The Ideal Candidate

You’re more than just a skilled welder — you’re a mentor, a motivator, and a leader. You know how to balance discipline with inspiration and how to connect classroom theory with booth execution.

We’d love to meet you if you:

  • Have experience in training or leadership, preferably in pipefitting or welding
  • Can break down complex welding concepts in a clear, engaging way
  • Are committed to safety, structure, and professionalism
  • Thrive in a fast-paced environment and enjoy working with young adults
  • Hold relevant welding certifications (a plus)
  • Are physically able to stand, move, and lift up to 50 lbs for 10-hour shifts

Position Details:

  • Start Date: As soon as possible
  • Employment Type: Full-Time, Hourly
  • Department: Operations
  • Shift: Second Shift (12:30pm to 10:30pm) with rotation to first shift as needed

Why Western Welding Academy?

At Western Welding Academy, we’re on a mission to redefine welding education. We don’t just teach welding — we build welders who are ready for anything. Our instructors are the backbone of that mission. If you want to make a lasting impact in the trades and help shape tomorrow’s workforce, we want to hear from you.
