Spot Welder

Spot Welder

This role involves setting up and operating manual and semi-automatic spot-welding equipment to fuse metal components with precision and consistency. You will work with a variety of welding processes, prepare materials for welding, and apply your knowledge of welding techniques, metallurgy, and geometry to produce high-quality parts in a modern manufacturing environment.

Responsibilities:

• Set up and operate manual and semi-automatic spot-welding equipment to fuse metal segments using processes such as resistance, projection, and capacitor discharge (CD) welding.
• Prepare all material surfaces to be welded by removing loose or thick scale, slag, rust, moisture, grease, and any foreign matter to ensure proper weld quality.
• Determine the appropriate equipment settings and spot welding methods for each job, applying knowledge of metallurgy, geometry, and welding techniques.
• Monitor weld quality during production and make necessary adjustments to equipment or process parameters to maintain consistent results.
• Work with metal fabrication and metal stamping components to ensure proper fit-up and alignment prior to welding.
• Operate and support robotic welding and robotic weld systems as needed, including basic setup and operation.
• Follow production schedules, work instructions, and safety procedures while maintaining a clean and organized work area.
• Collaborate with team members and supervisors to meet production goals and quality standards.

Essential Skills:

• Hands-on experience with spot welding in a production or fabrication environment.
• Ability to set up and operate manual and semi-automatic spot-welding equipment.
• Knowledge of resistance, projection, and CD (capacitor discharge) welding processes.
• Experience working with metal fabrication and metal stamping components.
• Ability to prepare metal surfaces for welding, including cleaning and removing contaminants such as scale, slag, rust, moisture, and grease.
• Understanding of basic metallurgy, geometry, and welding techniques to determine proper welding methods and settings.
• Experience with welding and weld inspection to ensure consistent quality.
• Ability to follow work instructions, safety procedures, and production schedules.
• Strong attention to detail and ability to maintain accuracy in repetitive tasks.

Additional Skills & Qualifications:

• Experience with robotic welding systems, including operation and monitoring.
• Exposure to robotic programming and robotic weld setup in a manufacturing environment.
• Experience in fabrication or metal stamping production.
• Comfort working with state-of-the-art welding and fabrication equipment.
• Willingness to work across different shifts as needed to support production demands.
