As a Weld Manufacturing Engineer , you will provide Weld and Assembly ME support and basic troubleshooting for current operations in X9 Manufacturing.
The role would require more ability to react to issues and troubleshooting machines in an already established process rather than developing/selecting how parts would be welded

Additionally, you will:

• Support Fanuc welding and material handling robots and robotic systems. Troubleshooting issues when they are down, working collaboratively with cross functional resources to get the machines up and running
• Diagnose and root cause GMAW defects. Prevent issues from re-occurring or touch up Fanuc robots to prevent repair
• Establish routings, SOE, layouts, tooling, assembly costs, OMS, and control plans for revisions to current operations
• Identify and implement safety, quality, cost reduction and ergonomic improvement ideas for department
• Work with SAP, WPlanner/MPPlanner and OMS to perform engineering functions
• Design cell layouts to improve material flow and presentation in department
