Build the Path Forward

At Path Robotics, we’re attacking a trillion dollar opportunity - doing things that have never been done before to support an industry hurting from a lack of skilled labor. Big, hard problems are what Path tackles every day, and our people are our greatest asset to get that job done. Our intelligent, hardworking team of people do the impossible every single day, yet remain incredibly kind, humble, and always ready to support one another.

We are looking for a Welding Engineer who will work side-by-side with a team of welding engineers to develop an autonomous robotic welding system capable of automatically generating custom motion plans and weld parameters for any part that it sees. You will also support teams with welding experiments, generating the data that propels our technology forward. You will join a team of dedicated, supportive, and enthusiastic people to help create the future of manufacturing.

What You’ll Do

• Run weld parameter selection experiments to identify a range of welding parameters (voltage, wire speed, travel speed) that can be used for new customer applications
• Partner with robotics engineers to develop a set of rules for how to move the workpiece and robot end-effector to automate trajectory generation
• Perform robotic welding experiments to test other systems in development including sensors and inspection systems, path planning and welding strategies, and new hardware
• Work with our hardware team to fabricate test coupons for application feasibility testing and other in-house experiments
• 30%-50% travel required, in which you will be interfacing and working directly with customers.
• Operate a state-of the art AI-powered robotic welding cell
• Manually weld coupons and other test parts when needed
• Use powered shop tools to cut and etch weld samples

Who You Are

• 3+ years of experience developing robotic welding procedures in an industrial environment
• Proficient in industrial robotics including Yaskawa, ABB, Kuka, or Fanuc platforms
• Background in fusion-based weld parameter development for several metal alloys
• Understand dynamic robotic welding technologies including adaptive fill, touch sensing, and seam tracking
• Proficient with manual welding processes including GMAW, FCAW, GTAW, and SMAW
• Understand weld symbology and print interpretation
• Experience with Design of Experiment (DoE) principles
• Passionate about what you do and enjoy working in a collaborative environment
