About the role

Welding Engineer to develop autonomous robotic welding systems, generate weld parameters and motion plans, and support experimental data generation to advance AI-driven robotic welding technology in manufacturing.

Responsibilities

  • Run weld parameter selection experiments to identify a range of welding parameters (voltage, wire speed, travel speed) for new customer applications
  • Partner with robotics engineers to develop rules for motion planning and automation of trajectory generation
  • Perform robotic welding experiments to test systems including sensors, inspection, path planning, welding strategies, and new hardware
  • Work with hardware team to fabricate test coupons for feasibility testing and in-house experiments
  • Interface directly with customers (30%-50% travel)
  • Operate a state-of-the-art AI-powered robotic welding cell
  • Manually weld coupons and other test parts as needed
  • Use powered shop tools to cut and etch weld samples

Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience developing robotic welding procedures in an industrial environment
  • Proficient in industrial robotics including Yaskawa, ABB, Kuka, or Fanuc platforms
  • Background in fusion-based weld parameter development for carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminum
  • Proficient with manual welding processes including GMAW, FCAW, GTAW, and SMAW
  • Understand weld symbology and print interpretation
  • Experience with Design of Experiment (DoE) principles
  • Passion for collaborative work environment
