Robotic Welding Engineer: Stainless Tube Process Innovator

American Boa, Inc.; Cumming (GA); On-site; USD 80,000 - 120,000; Full time

Job summary

American Boa, Inc. is seeking a Robotic Welding Engineer who works hands-on in the cell and drives process development from launch through stable production.

You will program robots, optimize MIG and TIG weld parameters, and own the robotic welding process across new-part launches and ongoing output. This role emphasizes data-driven improvements and cross-functional collaboration on fixtures and tooling.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Welding, Mechanical, or Manufacturing Engineering, or 5+ years of equivalent hands-on robotic welding experience.
• Hands-on programming experience with major industrial robot brands (FANUC, OTC Daihen, Yaskawa Motoman, ABB, or similar).
• Strong MIG and TIG processes knowledge with independent parameter development.
• Experience welding stainless steel, preferably thin-wall tubing or sheet.
• Ability to read and interpret drawings, GD&T, and AWS weld symbols.
• Able to work on the production floor and split time between cell and desk.

Responsibilities

• Program, touch up, and optimize robotic weld paths on OTC Daihen robots and support future deployments.
• Develop and optimize MIG (GMAW) and TIG (GTAW) parameters for thin-wall stainless steel tubing and assemblies.
• Develop weld processes for Inconel and nickel alloys, including filler selection and heat input control.
• Solve weld quality problems: burn-through, porosity, lack of fusion, distortion, and oxidation/sugaring.
• Design and improve weld fixtures, tooling, and positioner setups for repeatability and cycle time.
• Implement and tune seam tracking and touch sensing; create and maintain WPS/PQR documentation.
