Experience selecting and implementing robotic or automated welding systems
Experience with laser beam, friction stir, or orbital welding of high-strength steel, stainless steel, nickel, titanium, or aluminum alloys
Experience building a welding team or capability from an early stage
Background in high-mix, low-volume or advanced manufacturing environments
