Robotics Engineer

Job Purpose:

skilled Robotic Welding Engineer to oversee and optimize robotic welding systems, ensure high-quality weld output, and lead automation improvements across welding operations. The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in robotic welding setup, programming, and troubleshooting

Principal Accountabilities:

· Program, operate, and maintain robotic welding systems (e.g., ABB, FANUC, Yaskawa).

· Review welding drawings, WPS/PQR/WPQ and ensure compliance in robotic processes.

· Optimize weld parameters (voltage, speed, wire feed) for cycle time and quality.

· Develop and implement new welding automation systems for improved efficiency.

· Conduct root cause analysis for welding defects and implement corrective actions.

· Collaborate with design, quality, and production teams to ensure smooth integration.

· Train operators and technicians on robotic cell usage, safety, and quality standards.

· Maintain PM schedules, spares inventory, and documentation for all welding robots.

· Support IATF/ISO/ASME audits and documentation as required.

· Evaluate and drive productivity, uptime, and weld quality KPIs.

Knowledge & Skills needed to deliver on the accountabilities:

· Strong knowledge of MIG/MAG welding processes (especially for structural steel, chassis, or trailers).

· Hands-on experience in robot programming (ABB / Yaskawa / FANUC etc.).

· Exposure to welding automation , jigs & fixture design basics.

· Ability to read and interpret welding symbols, GD&T, and technical drawings.

· Understanding of robotic safety standards and interlocks.

· Problem-solving and analytical skills.

· Familiarity with WPS/PQR and international welding standard
