About the Role


Job Title: Dimensional Checker – Structural Steel
Location: Tigard, OR

Schedule: Day Shift Monday–Thursday, 6am–4:30pm
Who We Are:
Our client is AISC-certified structural steel fabricator specializing in complex bridge and building projects. Our work spans AWS D1.1, D1.5, and D1.8 codes and includes fracture-critical fabrication for DOT and major infrastructure clients. We take pride in our craftsmanship, technical precision, and commitment to safety and quality.
What You’ll Do:
This position is ideal for someone with strong structural steel layout experience and a sharp eye for accuracy. The Dimensional Checker is responsible for verifying that fabricated parts and assemblies meet all drawing, code, and project-specific dimensional requirements. You’ll work directly with the QC team, fabrication leads, and project management to ensure components are compliant before moving downstream in production.
Key Responsibilities:

  • Perform dimensional inspections on structural steel parts, assemblies, and bridge components.

  • Check hole diameters, spacing, and bolt patterns using calibrated gauges and measurement tools.

  • Pull, run, and verify tape-measure dimensions for lengths, heights, web/flange sizes, and layout features.

  • Use calipers, squares, micrometers, and other precision tools to validate critical dimensions.

  • Verify parts against shop drawings, weld symbols, and project specifications.

  • Identify and document nonconformities; communicate findings with shop leads and QC.

  • Maintain accurate inspection records in accordance with AISC and project documentation requirements.

  • Support internal audits, hold points, and dimensional verification steps per QC processes.

  • Collaborate with fabrication teams to resolve layout or fit-up discrepancies.
What’s In It for You:

  • Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.

  • The opportunity to work on high-profile and technically challenging fabrication projects.

  • A collaborative, safety-driven, and quality-focused workplace.

  • Long-term career growth in an AISC-certified environment with ongoing training and development.
What You Need to Have:

  • 2+ years of experience in structural steel fabrication, layout, or dimensional inspection.

  • Strong ability to read and interpret fabrication drawings, weld symbols, and specifications.

  • Proficiency with tape measures, calipers, micrometers, squares, and related measurement tools.

  • High attention to detail with the ability to catch dimensional discrepancies quickly.

  • Solid communication skills and the ability to work closely with QC, fabrication, and welding teams.

  • Ability to work in a fast-paced production environment while maintaining accuracy and safety.

  • Must be authorized to work in the U.S. and able to pass a background and drug screening.
Preferred:

  • Prior experience in AISC-certified fabrication environments.

  • Familiarity with DOT bridge work or fracture-critical projects.

  • Understanding of AWS and AISC fabrication practices.
