Grow Your Precision Machining Career with Sweeney Metal Fabricators

No one starts a new job expecting their insights to be ignored, their ideas dismissed, and their talents taken for granted. Yet, in so many workplaces, employees experience those very frustrations day after day.

When you join the team here at Sweeney Metal Fabricators, however, you become part of a collaborative community where each of us has the full agency to share our knowledge and have our voices heard. 

If you’re hungry to join forces with a precision machine shop dedicated to superior quality and exceptional service, you’ve landed on the right webpage.

The Last Precision Machining Job You’ll Ever Need

When John Sweeney started his metal fabrication shop in 1988, he built the business on simple yet powerful principles: the highest quality, most affordable products delivered on time.

To honor these principles, he knew he needed more than top-notch equipment and loyal customers. He also needed great employees who would embrace his vision of a collaborative workplace rooted in clear communication.

Today, Sweeney Metal Fabricators is a family-run precision machine shop with old-school manufacturing values and modern business sensibilities. 

We get the job done—together

At Sweeney, we don’t play “Managers vs. Laborers,” with hands-off bosses micromanaging exhausted employees. From the newest hire to Mr. Sweeney himself, every single one of us works together to get the job done right. 

Because we value every team member as an equal contributor, we only hire skilled manufacturing professionals who know what they’re doing and how to do it with excellence.

When you step onto the Sweeney machine shop floor, you claim full ownership of your work. We’ll trust you to ask for help if you need it, produce the highest-quality parts possible, and do what’s best for the customer every single time.

Communication is our key to quality

For such a technical profession, manufacturing is surprisingly full of gray areas—not every solution is plainly spelled out in black and white.

We rely on clear, consistent communication to bridge the gaps between what a customer conveys, what a customer forgot to convey, and what a customer didn’t even know to convey because engineers and buyers aren’t machinists!

Collectively and as individuals, the Sweeney team takes responsibility for the success of every customer’s parts. 

How do we address design flaws? Communication.

How do we solve metal fabrication challenges? Communication.

How do we clarify a customer’s intentions? Communication.

We believe so deeply in the value of communication that we hold regular meetings throughout each week geared toward keeping everyone talking and on the same page. These teamwide gatherings facilitate not only straightforward communication but also its more intimidating cousin: transparency. 

Transparent communication is what allows us to resolve any concerns and skillfully leverage the best blend of people, equipment, and processes for every job. Transparent communication forms the foundation of every exceptional customer experience.

Come for a job, stay for a career

While companies nationwide worry about their dismal employee retention rates, Sweeney’s employees sign on and stay put.

In 1990, John Sweeney hired his first employee, and that individual is still with our precision machine shop today. In fact, among our more than 20 employees, the majority have worked with Sweeney Metal Fabricators for 10-20 years!

We’d credit our collective good looks for our impressive employee retention, but we hate to brag. Instead, we’ll credit our ongoing efforts to make Sweeney a place where people like to work.

We maintain a welcoming environment that’s safe and clean.

We keep our team informed of the latest company goals and initiatives, presenting opportunities for further involvement and advancement.

We do our best to make the work enjoyable even when it’s hard by catering meals and responding rapidly to any concerns.

In short, we keep it human.

Because human is who we are, who you are, and who our customers are. And there’s nothing more authentically human than giving our best together.
