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. If you’re energized by the idea of making the impossible happen, come join us as a Senior Mechanical Engineer. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.
What they're looking for
- Prototype new mechanisms, from precision latches to revolutionary pumps and valves to surfaces measured in microns
- Test materials that push the boundaries of what 3D printing can do
- Research 3D printing challenges and rethink every subprocess to push technology forward
- Analyze, validate, and iterate on electro-mechanical systems
- Model everything from brackets to hinges to complex parts in CAD, creating well-specified, accurate drawings
- Partner with Global Sourcing and Manufacturing Teams to bring designs from prototype to mass production
More about this 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.
That’s what we do.
At Formlabs, we’re building 3D printers that are changing the way things get made. We have the smartest minds across every engineering discipline, and the technology they’re building is deployed at more than 50,000 industry leaders worldwide, including Apple, Google, Tesla, New Balance, and NASA.
If you’re energized by the idea of making the impossible happen, come join us as a Senior Mechanical Engineer.
