Job Description

Job Summary

The Welding Engineer will be responsible for providing first-line support in resolving welding production issues while ensuring dimensional integrity and quality of finished products. This role involves developing, implementing, and optimizing welding processes—particularly MIG (GMAW) and resistance spot welding—and working closely with manufacturing, quality, and engineering teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Establish welding process and quality parameters for MIG (GMAW) and resistance spot welding.

• Define and maintain standards for weld quality and production performance.

• Develop procedures and testing for destructive and non-destructive weld testing (e.g., macro etch, fillet break, tension & bend testing).

• Collaborate with Design, Manufacturing Engineering, and Prototype teams for manufacturability improvements.

• Design and implement robotic/automated welding systems and fixtures.

• Analyze and improve existing welding processes for efficiency and cost savings.

• Conduct weld lobe studies and manage weld consumables and spare parts.

• Support metallurgical studies and ensure dimensional capability in welding operations.

• Develop and maintain weld training and preventative maintenance programs.

• Participate in new product development with a focus on Design for Manufacturability.

• Write capital expenditure proposals and cost justifications.

• Ensure the implementation of fail-safe systems to prevent welding errors.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Welding Engineering Technology or equivalent combination of education and experience (4 additional years in lieu of degree).

• Minimum of 5 years’ relevant experience in welding engineering.

• Experience with destructive and non-destructive weld testing methods.

• 3–5 years of hands-on experience designing and programming robotic/automated welding systems (preferred).

• AWS Certification (preferred).

• Strong knowledge of welding systems, materials, and safety procedures.

• Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and communication skills.

Benefits

• Competitive Salary

• Major Medical, Dental, and Vision Insurance

• 401(k) with 50% employer match

• Short- and Long-Term Disability

• Growth and advancement opportunities within a global organization
