We are seeking an enthusiastic and detail-oriented Junior Welding Process Engineer to support the development, monitoring, and optimization of MIG, TIG, and Spot welding processes in a production environment. This role is ideal for recent graduates or early-career engineers who want to grow their expertise in welding technologies and manufacturing quality standards. The candidate will assist in welding trials, documentation, quality checks, and collaborate with senior engineers and shop floor teams to ensure robust and reliable welding operations.
Assist in setting parameters for MIG, TIG, and Spot welding processes under guidance from senior engineers.
Support welding trials and help troubleshoot issues related to weld quality, consistency, or distortion.
Participate in root cause analysis for welding defects (e.g., porosity, cracking, incomplete fusion).
Create and maintain welding procedure specifications (WPS), PQRs, and process sheets.
Help standardize welding setups and document best practices for operators.
Conduct basic weld inspections (visual, dimensional) and assist with NDT coordination (ultrasonic, dye penetrant, etc.).
Collaborate with the QA team to ensure compliance with welding standards and part tolerances.
Work with production teams to ensure proper execution of welding processes and operator training.
Monitor welding operations and gather feedback to support process improvements.
Learn and apply relevant industry standards (e.g., AWS D1.1, ISO 3834, ASME Section IX).
Support implementation of lean manufacturing principles and 5S in the welding area.
Attend internal training sessions on materials, weld metallurgy, and equipment operation.
Bachelor’s or Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, Welding Engineering, Metallurgy, or related field.
0–2 years of experience in welding or manufacturing environments (internships or project experience acceptable).
Basic understanding of welding processes (MIG, TIG, Spot), welding metallurgy, and safety practices.
Familiarity with reading engineering drawings and weld symbols.
Knowledge of basic measurement tools and inspection techniques.
Eagerness to learn, good communication skills, and a hands-on approach to problem-solving.
Support for MIG, TIG, and Spot Welding Process Setup
Welding Documentation (WPS, PQR, SOPs)
Basic Weld Inspection and Defect Analysis
Production Support and Operator Collaboration
Learning Welding Standards and Safety Protocols
Continuous Improvement & Process Monitoring
Shop floor and office-based role in a production facility.
Exposure to welding equipment, noise, and fumes (with PPE).
Hands-on involvement in welding process trials and inspections.
