X-Series USA designs, develops, and supports advanced industrial machinery including fiber laser cutting systems, robotic welding automation, structural steel processing equipment, and custom manufacturing solutions.
From our headquarters in Belgrade, Montana, we focus on research, development, machine productization, applications engineering, and advanced manufacturing technologies that help North American manufacturers improve productivity, quality, and competitiveness.
Engineering is responsible for evaluating, developing, refining, standardizing, supporting, and continuously improving machine platforms across multiple product categories while increasing ownership of machine designs, engineering standards, technical resources, documentation, and intellectual property.
**Position Overview **
We are seeking a skilled, hands-on welder who is interested in growing into a specialized role supporting our BeamWELD robotic welding system for structural steel fabrication.
This position is ideal for someone with strong welding and structural fabrication experience who wants to expand into automation, commissioning, and customer-facing applications work. You do not need to be a robotics expert on day one — a solid welding foundation and a willingness to learn are the most important requirements.
Applications Engineers are technical subject matter experts responsible for commissioning equipment, developing and validating processes, conducting customer training, supporting demonstrations, and serving as a primary applications resource for customers throughout the United States.
This position requires frequent travel and direct interaction with customers, operators, programmers, and production personnel to ensure successful machine
