About The Role:

Responsibilities:

• Support weld shop development to support full scale welded assemblies
• Develop, optimize, and qualify weld processes and parameters for multiple welding processes including but not limited to laser beam welding, gas tungsten arc welding, resistance welding, gas metal arc welding, and plasma arc welding
• Support design, manufacturing, and materials engineering with root cause analysis
• Work closely with design, tooling, automation, and development engineers to improve welded designs for manufacturing
• Set up welding qualification test campaigns and interpret mechanical testing and NDE results
• Support manufacturing engineers and welders on correct techniques in a fast paced manufacturing environment
• Develop and implement improved process control where possible using test and NDE results as feedback loop
• Scope out new welding technologies that may be employed to improve rate/quality/efficiency

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline
• Hands-on fabrication, manufacturing, or testing experience of welded assemblies

Preferred Skills and Experience:

• Master’s degree in welding engineering or related technical program
• Hands on welding experience of stainless steel, nickel-based, titanium, copper, and aluminum alloys
• Experience with brazing, joining, and metallographic interpretation
• Fundamental understanding of welding processes including, but not limited to laser beam, plasma arc, gas tungsten arc, and gas metal arc
• Tooling design experience for welded assemblies to reduce part distortion and improve part consistency
• Understanding of weld strength testing methodologies, standards, and data acquisition systems used to make informed welding decisions (ASTM E8, E399, E740, ISO 15653, AWS D17.X, AWS C7.X, thermos-couples, strain gages, etc.)
• Experience with root cause analysis and corrective actions including, but not limited to, optical and SEM fractography/metallography, hardness, chemical analysis, and mechanical testing
• Self-motivated engineer with keen attention to detail

Additional Requirements:

• Must be willing to work long hours and weekends as needed to support and maintain build schedules
• Ability to perform job duties that require standing, kneeling, crouching, twisting upper body, working in cramped positions in small openings and climbing hand over hand
• Strong ability to multi-task and communicate status and results with broad spectrum of internal and external departments
