Join to apply for the
Senior 3D Print Optimization Engineer
role at
Formlabs .
To reinvent an industry, you have to build the best team. Join Formlabs if you want to bring groundbreaking professional 3D printers to the desktop of every designer, engineer, researcher, and artist in the world.
The Print Optimization Team takes on the challenge of optimizing the intersection of hardware, software, and materials to deliver industry‑leading print performance. We strive to make our SLA & SLS product line print parts as quickly, reliably, easily, accurately, and beautifully as possible. We are a collaborative team with a diverse background, passionate about pushing the boundaries of print performance across our product lines.
As a 3D Print Optimization Engineer, you will be continuously using your problem‑solving skills to drive improved performance.
We are customer focused, and the first step in tackling the problem is understanding what performance boost we are trying to achieve and how many customers will benefit. Will customers be able to print parts faster? More reliably? Will they be easier to post‑process, or print more accurately?
If you’re excited about process optimization, solving multi‑disciplinary challenges, and bringing the best print performance to market, we want you as a
Senior
3D Print Optimization Engineer.
The Job
Push the capabilities of our SLA & SLS 3D printing platforms
Architect 3D printing optimization methodologies that result in better printer performance
Drive root cause analysis, considering mechanics, fluid dynamics, software, chemistry, optics, electronics, thermodynamics, and customer behavior
Design efficient experiments that tease out underlying behavior in a complicated system of variables
Tackle multi‑disciplinary problems
Develop and commercialize solutions that make a real and immediate impact on customer print performance
You
5+ years post‑graduate experience
Experience in test design where results impact product performance
Shipped a product or process to end users
Are focused on the customer
Have a strong sense of ownership with great attention to detail
Are hands‑on and willing to cross discipline boundaries to solve a problem
Work autonomously and learn new skills to tackle objectives
B.S., M.S., or Ph.D. in any science/engineering discipline (all are welcome)
Bonus
