## Summary

McLellan Industries' SkillBridge program offers transitioning service members a 24-week, full-time, hands-on manufacturing training experience at our Hanford, California production facility. Trainees develop practical skills in welding, fabrication, truck body assembly, hydraulic and mechanical systems, and quality inspection — with a pathway toward DOT welding certification. This program is designed to produce job-ready candidates for careers in heavy manufacturing and industrial equipment production.

## Job description

Trainees will work alongside experienced production staff in a real shop environment, progressing through structured rotations covering: shop safety and industrial fundamentals; basic shop skills including measurement, layout, and print reading; welding and fabrication (joint prep, fit-up, weld execution, and finishing); truck and equipment assembly (frame/body integration, fastener installation, component mounting); hydraulic, mechanical, and basic electrical system exposure; quality and inspection awareness; and professional workforce development. The program is progressive — trainees take on increasing responsibility as competency is demonstrated. The goal is full readiness for employment as a welder, fabricator, assembler, or truck technician support role upon transition.
