Overview

Be part of a team that creates an amazing terrain park experience.

The Terrain Parks Fabricator is responsible for the fabrication, repair, and maintenance of a variety of freestyle terrain park features. The Terrain Parks Fabricator partners closely with the Terrain Parks team to ensure the resort's feature inventory delivers world-class freestyle skiing and snowboarding experiences for guests of all ability levels. This creative position requires someone with a strong attention to detail, quality control, and a passion for snow park design

Come work and play at Seattle’s home mountain, The Summit at Snoqualmie.  Located an hour West of Seattle via Interstate 90 at Snoqualmie Pass, The Summit includes four unique mountain areas, a snow tubing park, Nordic center, SnowSports School, and 10+ food and beverage establishments.

Responsibilities

Job duties may include, but are not limited to:

Excellence in Execution 

• Fabricate new terrain park features — including rails, jib boxes, down boxes, rainbow rails, wall rides, C-rails, etc. — from steel tubing, flat bar, sheet metal, plate steel, and HDPE plastic using MIG and stick welding processes. 

• Repair and refurbish existing features between and during the ski season: grinding and re-welding broken welds, replacing worn HDPE sliding surfaces, straightening bent frames, and repainting or finishing features for re-deployment. 

Long Term Thinking 

• Maintain an organized, well-stocked fabrication shop — track raw material inventory (steel tubing, flat bar, plate, HDPE), manage hardware stock, and coordinate supply orders with the Terrain Parks Manager.  

Develop Great People 

• Assist the Terrain Parks crew with seasonal feature setup, repositioning, and teardown, including loading, transporting, and placing features on the mountain using resort vehicles and equipment. 

• Support special fabrication projects such as competition feature builds for freestyle events, movie shoot setups, demo days, and park expansion initiatives.

Attitude is Everything 

• Maintain all shop equipment — welding machines, cutting tools, and fabrication machinery — in safe operating condition, performing routine maintenance and promptly reporting issues. 

• Follow all shop safety protocols including proper PPE use (welding helmet, leather gloves, safety glasses, steel-toed boots), fire watch procedures, ventilation requirements, and safe material handling practices.  

Serve First 

• Conduct thorough quality control inspections on all fabricated and repaired features to verify structural integrity, weld quality, smooth sliding surfaces, and safe mounting hardware before features are deployed on the mountain. 

• Prepare features for transport and on-mountain installation, including attaching mounting plates, stake brackets, ratchet strap points, and other hardware required for safe setup.

Required 

• Demonstrated experience in metal fabrication 

• MIG welding and stick welding experience required
