Welder MIG/MAG (135/136) — English-speaking

Industrial and construction projects in Poland hire MIG/MAG welders (process 135/136) for steel elements and structures. Selection is practical: clean fit-up, stable parameters, and readiness for a weld test matter more than promises.

Strict rule: we do not review candidates without a CV. To move fast, upload your CV first, then contact us for the current project pipeline.

Gross pay policy (Poland, from 01.01.2026): pay is never below statutory minimums. The minimum wage is 4,806 PLN gross / month (full-time employment), and the minimum hourly rate is 31.40 PLN gross / hour (civil-law hourly minimum). Actual project rate depends on the welding test result, position scope, and site requirements and is confirmed in writing before onboarding.

Anti-template seed: dc4b8068. The “uniqueization” module below varies structure and microcopy deterministically per page across the category.

What you will do (practical scope)

  1. Fit-up & preparation: bevel prep, cleaning, grinding, alignment, and tack welding to hold geometry.
  2. Welding (135/136): perform fillet and/or butt welds according to drawings and WPS (if provided).
  3. Self-checks: visual control of typical defects (porosity, lack of fusion, undercut, excessive spatter) and basic corrections.
  4. Work discipline: keep parameters stable, manage heat input, and maintain consumables and torch condition.
  5. Cooperate with inspection: support VT and (if required) NDT workflow by keeping weld traceability and cleanliness.

Your task list is defined per project and confirmed in writing before onboarding. We avoid “surprises” after arrival.

Requirements (detailed, screening-grade)

  • Proven MIG/MAG practice: process 135/136 on steel; stable hand and repeatable results.
  • Test readiness: you can pass a practical weld test (joint + position depend on the site).
  • Drawing basics: read simple technical drawings and understand weld symbols at a working level.
  • WPS discipline: follow parameters and sequence if WPS is used; no “personal shortcuts”.
  • Safety: consistent PPE use, fume awareness, hot-work rules, fire watch when required.
  • English: enough to understand test instructions, safety briefings and supervisor feedback.
  • CV quality: your CV must list processes (135/136), positions you weld in, materials and thickness range, and recent projects.

Welding test: what to expect (typical flow)

The goal is simple: confirm you can produce a clean, compliant weld under basic supervision and within reasonable time.

  • Briefing: joint type, material, thickness, position, acceptance basics; WPS if the site uses it.
  • Prep: edge cleaning, bevel/grind, tack and alignment (fit-up matters as much as the weld).
  • Test weld: fillet or butt (project-dependent). You are assessed for stability and defect control.
  • Evaluation: visual inspection; sometimes measurement or NDT depending on the client.
  • Decision: feedback and next steps (start date, site, shift pattern) confirmed in writing.

Certificates help, but the test result is decisive. If you have ISO 9606-1 (or equivalent), add it to your CV.

Short candidate profile (fast self-check)

  • You produce consistent beads (no “random” fusion) and can repeat quality for a full shift.
  • You understand how prep, fit-up and parameter control prevent defects.
  • You accept inspection rules and treat documentation/traceability seriously when required.
  • You are reliable on safety: PPE, hot-work discipline, fume control and housekeeping.

If this describes you, upload your CV and contact us about the active pipeline in Silesia / Wrocław region.

Working conditions with a Polish employer (what is typically confirmed)

Conditions differ by project, but a professional Polish onboarding flow is document-first and compliance-focused. Below is the type of information you typically receive before you start (in writing).

Contracts & payroll (gross)

  • Contract model: confirmed before onboarding (employment or civil-law, depending on the project).
  • Gross pay clarity: rates are presented as gross (brutto). Statutory minimums apply from 01.01.2026.
  • Overtime: rules depend on the site schedule and contract model and are stated before start.
  • Contributions & registration: formal registration and payroll handling follow Polish requirements.

We do not promise “net” amounts on job pages. Final numbers depend on contract model and individual factors.

Safety, medical & readiness

  • OHS / safety induction: safety briefing is standard before work begins.
  • Medical exam: required where the role and regulations demand it.
  • PPE & hot-work rules: site procedures are mandatory (fire prevention, ventilation, fume control).
  • Tools & equipment: usually provided by the site; any personal requirements are communicated in advance.

Your job is to weld safely and consistently. The employer’s job is to provide a compliant environment and clear rules.


Work authorization and documents

Work authorization depends on your status and project rules. If you need a work permit, review: Work Permit (Zezwolenie)

  • CV: mandatory for review (English).
  • Certificates: add any welding qualifications (especially 135/136).
  • ID / passport: standard onboarding document.
  • Experience proof: project list, positions, materials, thickness range (in the CV).

FAQ (practical, candidate-focused)

Can I apply without a CV?

No. CV is required for review. Without a CV, your application is not processed.

Do you accept experience without certificates?

Sometimes, yes—if you pass the practical test. Some projects require certificates; others accept strong experience plus test performance.

What should my CV include to pass screening?

Process (135/136), positions you weld in, materials and thickness range, recent projects, and any certificates. Add your availability and preferred region (Silesia / Wrocław).

What are typical mistakes that fail the test?

Poor preparation/fit-up, unstable travel speed, inconsistent parameters, visible defects (porosity/undercut/lack of fusion), and ignoring safety or instructions.

Is gross pay stated on this page the final offer?

No. This page states the statutory floor (gross) and explains the selection logic. The actual project offer (gross) is confirmed in writing after screening and/or test.
