We are looking for a highly skilled Automotive Welder to support vehicle and component manufacturing within a high-volume production environment. This role requires strong technical expertise in precision welding, the ability to work with automotive-grade materials, and strict adherence to quality and safety standards. The ideal candidate will be experienced in repetitive, accuracy-driven welding processes and capable of maintaining consistency across production runs.

Responsibilities or duties

Automotive Welding Operations

• Perform welding on automotive components such as chassis frames, exhaust systems, brackets, body panels, and structural parts
• Execute welding using MIG (GMAW), TIG (GTAW), and spot welding depending on material and production requirements
• Handle thin-gauge metals (e.g., sheet metal) commonly used in automotive bodywork without causing warping or defects
• Ensure proper weld penetration, bead consistency, and structural integrity in line with automotive standards

Reading & Interpretation of Technical Drawings

• Interpret engineering drawings, welding symbols, and assembly instructions specific to automotive components
• Follow precise measurements, tolerances, and alignment specifications critical in vehicle assembly

Equipment Setup & Maintenance

• Set up welding machines based on material type (mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum) and thickness
• Adjust voltage, current, and gas flow to achieve optimal weld quality
• Conduct routine maintenance and basic troubleshooting of welding equipment

Quality Control & Inspection

• Inspect welds visually and using gauges or testing tools to ensure compliance with automotive quality standards
• Identify and correct defects such as cracks, porosity, undercutting, or misalignment
• Work closely with quality control teams to maintain consistency across batches

Production Efficiency

• Meet daily production targets while maintaining high-quality output
• Work efficiently within assembly lines or fabrication units with minimal supervision
• Adapt quickly to repetitive tasks while maintaining precision and consistency

Safety & Compliance

• Follow strict automotive manufacturing safety standards and PPE requirements
• Ensure safe handling of welding gases, equipment, and materials
• Maintain a clean, hazard-free workstation in line with 5S or lean man

Qualifications or requirements

• Proven experience in automotive or industrial welding
• Certification in welding (NITA / Trade Test / Equivalent)
• Strong hands-on experience with MIG welding (essential) and familiarity with TIG and spot welding
• Ability to work with thin sheet metal and precision components
• Strong understanding of automotive welding tolerances and quality standards
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings and welding symbols
• Experience working in a production line or high-volume manufacturing setup
• High level of attention to detail and consistency
• Experience working in an automotive assembly plant or component manufacturing environment
• Familiarity with robotic welding systems or automated welding lines
• Knowledge of lean manufacturing, Kaizen, or 5S practices
• Additional certifications in fabrication or quality inspection
