welder
Torch-wielding metal worker
A welder is a person who joins metal parts by melting them together, or the equipment used to do so.
The work requires skill with high heat and protective gear: The welder finished the seam on the pipeline.
Welders work in construction, manufacturing, automotive repair, and shipbuilding.
