Formlabs is the largest supplier of professional stereolithography (SLA) and selective laser sintering (SLS) 3D printers in the world. Backed by NEA, SoftBank VF and SOSV.
About the role
A 3D printer is one of the most demanding machines you can build. Lasers, optics, precision motion, thermals, airflow, materials handling, chemistry, sensing, controls, and software all have to work at micron-scale precision, for thousands of layers, with almost no tolerance for error. Making that work reliably is an extraordinary engineering problem. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Design and build prototypes and production electronic systems, including circuit design, PCB layout, bring up, and validation
- Own projects, not skills -- this role is for a “full-stack” engineer with a focus on shipping products, not a specialist in any one area of electronics engineering
- Go beyond the board -- be responsible for the design of subsystems such as sensors, actuators, and optoelectronics that require tradeoffs between electrical and mechanical requirements
- Back up your design decisions with data gathered through simulations and experiments
- Hone your skills and grow: engineers at Formlabs have grown into deep technical experts, system architects, product technical leads, and team leaders / managers. We support talented people growing in any direction
