- Demonstrated ability to prepare, program, and operate industrial robotic welding systems; EWI's systems include ABB, Cloos, Fanuc, Motoman, and OTC Daihen in configurations ranging from 6- to 14-axes
- Demonstrated ability to develop welding procedures for common robotic arc welding processes including GMAW and FCAW
- Demonstrated ability to develop procedures for and perform manual welding operations including GMAW, FCAW, GTAW, and SMAW
- Working knowledge of other arc welding processes including SAW and PAW
- Basic to intermediate knowledge of and experience with electrical controls, preferably related to modern machine tools (inputs, outputs, custom M-codes, ladder logic, etc.)
- Ability to use CAD software to develop basic drawings
- Robotic offline programming experience is considered favorable
- Previous Arc-DED or WAAM experience is considered favorable
- Proficient in MS Office products (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.)
- Excellent organizational skills
