Job Summary

The Fabrication Engineer will manage the end-to-end manufacturing and shop-floor assembly of metal structures, pressure equipment, or mechanical parts. This role bridges design engineering and production operations to ensure projects meet cost, timeline, safety, and quality specifications.

Key Responsibilities

• Process Planning & Design: Develop fabrication sequences, Bill of Materials (BOMs), routers, weld maps, and 3D/2D CAD models using software like AutoCAD or SolidWorks.
• Material & Vendor Management: Select appropriate raw materials (steel, aluminum, alloys) based on strength, cost, and availability, and coordinate with vendors/suppliers.
• Shop-Floor Oversight: Supervise cutting, bending, fitting, and welding operations to minimize distortion, warping, and material waste.
• Quality Control & Compliance: Enforce industry codes (ASME, AWS, ISO 9001), perform dimensional and weld inspections, and resolve non-conformances.
• Continuous Improvement: Apply Lean manufacturing or Six Sigma principles to reduce manufacturing lead times and eliminate bottlenecks.
• Technical Support: Assist production teams and troubleshoot site installation or assembly issues.

Required Qualifications & Skills

• Education: Bachelor’s degree (B.E. / B.Tech) in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Industrial Engineering (or equivalent Diploma with relevant experience).
• Experience: Typically 2 to 6+ years of hands‑on experience in a heavy fabrication, structural steel, or mechanical manufacturing shop.
• Technical Skills:
  • Proficiency in CAD/PLM tools (SolidWorks, AutoCAD).
  • Working knowledge of welding processes (MIG, TIG, Arc), GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing), and metal‑working machinery.
  • Familiarity with Quality Management Systems (ISO 9001) and statistical process control
