Role & responsibilities A Welding Engineer designs, develops, and oversees welding processes, procedures, and systems to ensure the structural integrity, safety, and quality of welded components in manufacturing industries. They utilize metallurgical knowledge to select materials, establish welding techniques, solve technical issues, and ensure compliance with industry codes.

Key Responsibilities

- Procedure Development & Qualification: Develop, write, and qualify Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS) and Procedure Qualification Records (PQR) in compliance with ASME, API, or AWS codes.
- Production & Shop Support: Supervise on-floor welding activities, troubleshoot daily issues, and ensure compliance with approved procedures to maintain production schedules.
- Welder Training & Qualification: Qualify welders (WPQR) and maintain certification records; provide training to improve technique, safety, and efficiency.
- Failure Analysis & Corrective Actions: Conduct root cause analysis on weld failures (e.g., cracking, distortion) and implement corrective and preventive measures.
- Quality Control (QC) & Inspection: Knowledge of NDT (Non-Destructive Testing) methods (RT, UT, PT, MT) and PWHT (Post-Weld Heat Treatment). ASNT level -II NDT qualified highly preferred.
- Material Selection & Consumables:



Determine appropriate welding methods and filler metals for various alloys, including low-alloy steels and stainless steels.
- Automation & Technology: Implement automated welding systems (e.g., orbital welding, robotics) to improve productivity.

Required Skills and Qualifications

- Education: Bachelors degree in Welding Engineering, Metallurgy, or Mechanical Engineering.
- Experience: 4–6 years of experience in heavy fabrication, pressure vessels, oil & gas.
- Codes & Standards: Knowledge of ASME Section VIII & IX, AWS D1.1, or API standards.
