What does a Full Time Welding Engineer do?

A Full Time Welding Engineer is responsible for designing, developing, and overseeing welding processes and procedures in manufacturing or construction projects. They ensure the quality and safety of welds, select appropriate welding techniques and materials, and may troubleshoot welding problems on site. Welding Engineers also collaborate closely with other engineers, technicians, and project managers to meet technical specifications and industry standards. Their expertise helps maintain structural integrity and compliance with safety regulations.

What does collaboration look like for a Full Time Welding Engineer within a manufacturing team?

As a Full Time Welding Engineer, collaboration is a key part of daily operations. You’ll regularly work alongside production supervisors, quality assurance teams, and design engineers to ensure welding processes meet both safety standards and project specifications. This often involves troubleshooting production issues on the shop floor, optimizing welding procedures, and providing technical guidance to welders. Effective communication and teamwork are essential, as you’ll translate complex technical requirements into practical solutions and help coordinate between departments to meet manufacturing goals.

What is the difference between Full Time Welding Engineer vs Welding Supervisor?

AspectFull Time Welding EngineerWelding Supervisor
CertificationsWelding Engineer Certification, AWS Certified Welding Engineer (CWE)Welding Supervisor Certification, AWS Certified Welding Supervisor (CWS)
Work EnvironmentDesign, testing, quality assurance, project planningOn-site supervision, overseeing welding operations
Employer & Industry UsageManufacturing, construction, oil & gas, aerospaceManufacturing plants, construction sites, fabrication shops

Full Time Welding Engineers focus on designing welding procedures, ensuring quality standards, and supporting projects through technical expertise. Welding Supervisors oversee daily welding operations, manage teams, and ensure safety compliance. While both roles require welding certifications and industry experience, their primary responsibilities differ—engineers focus on planning and quality, supervisors on execution and supervision.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Full Time Welding Engineer, and why are they important?

A Full Time Welding Engineer typically needs a bachelor's degree in welding engineering or a related field, strong understanding of metallurgy, and experience with welding processes and codes. Familiarity with CAD software, welding simulation tools, and certifications such as Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) or Certified Welding Engineer (CWEng) are highly valued. Excellent problem-solving, project management, and communication skills help in collaborating with teams and addressing manufacturing challenges. These competencies are essential for ensuring weld quality, process efficiency, and compliance with safety and industry standards.

Job description

Department: Engineering
Employment Type: Full-Time, Salary (Exempt)
About Beverlin
Beverlin is a trusted manufacturer known for producing high-quality perforated metal tubes, fabricated components, and custom metal solutions for customers across multiple industries. Our reputation is built on craftsmanship, continuous improvement, and a commitment to doing the right thing for our customers, suppliers, and team members.
We foster a supportive, people-centered culture where employees are respected, encouraged to grow, and given opportunities to build meaningful careers. At Beverlin, you're not just operating equipment; you're contributing to a team that takes pride in its work, collaborates to overcome challenges, and celebrates shared success.
Position Overview
We're seeking a hands-on Weld Engineering & Technical Leader to own all welding processes for new and existing products. This role serves as Beverlin's subject matter expert in welding technology, aluminum fabrication, process optimization, and welder development.
You will lead weld process strategy, develop and maintain WPS/PQR documentation, design weld fixtures, support new product launches, and mentor welders-including direct coaching for the Weld Production Trainer.
This job is designed for a technical, sleeves-rolled-up leader who moves comfortably between engineering analysis, fixture design, and producing master welds.
Primary Responsibilities
Technical Leadership
  • Own welding processes across new and existing production.
  • Develop, qualify, and maintain WPS and PQR documentation.
  • Evaluate and implement new welding technologies, methods, and best practices.
  • Establish standards for aluminum welding, repeatability, and distortion control.

Process & Quality Improvement
  • Improve weld rate, repeatability, throughput, and first-pass yield.
  • Reduce weld scrap and rework through structured problem solving.
  • Lead root cause analysis and corrective action for weld-related issues.
  • Develop and track weld performance metrics (scrap %, arc time, cycle time, FPY).

Welding Expertise
  • Advanced hands-on skill in:
    • GTAW (TIG) required
    • RSW (Resistance Spot Welding) required
    • Aluminum: 5052 & 3003 alloys required
  • Ability to control distortion in thin/medium gauge materials (.024"-.125").
  • Laser welding experience preferred.

Tooling & Fixture Design
  • Design and fabricate weld jigs and fixtures focused on:
    • Heat distortion control
    • Repeatability
    • Ergonomics
    • Cycle time improvement
  • Create and modify tooling drawings and internal manufacturing prints (CAD required, Inventor/Fusion preferred).

Engineering & Launch Support
  • Support Sales and Engineering during quoting and new product launches.
  • Define weld methods, tooling, and cycle times for RFQs and production readiness.
  • Create/update routings and BOMs in the Beverlin system.
  • Establish incoming inspection criteria and modify component/assembly drawings as required.

Leadership & Mentorship
  • Serve as a technical mentor to all welders.
  • Provide direct coaching to the Weld Production Trainer.
  • Elevate team skills in weld theory, technique, and troubleshooting.
  • Promote a culture of craftsmanship, accountability, and continuous improvement.

Work Schedule
  • Full-time, 5-day onsite role
  • Core hours: 7:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
  • Additional hours as needed to support production, launches, or issue resolution.

What You Bring
Required
  • 5+ years of weld leadership experience.
  • Bachelor's in Welding Engineering (preferred) or equivalent experience.
  • Hands-on expertise in GTAW, RSW, and aluminum welding (5052 & 3003)
  • Strong GD&T, blueprint interpretation, and CAD proficiency (Inventor/Fusion).
  • Demonstrated ability to design and fabricate fixtures and jigs.
  • Data-driven problem-solving mindset.
  • Ability to communicate effectively across all levels.

Preferred/Value-Added
  • AWS Certifications (CW, CWS, CWE)
  • Experience with laser welding or programming.
  • Familiarity with roll forming.
  • Experience in high-mix, low-volume manufacturing.

Benefits
We're committed to offering a robust and competitive benefits package, including:
  • Competitive pay based on experience
  • Health, dental, and vision insurance options
  • Retirement savings plan
  • Professional growth and career development opportunities
  • Supportive, inclusive, and team-focused workplace culture

Why Join Beverlin?
