About VulcanForms

About Us Founded in 2015 to develop the world’s first industrially scalable laser metal additive manufacturing solution, VulcanForms is reshaping how the world manufactures critical products.

About the role

As a Senior Product Systems Engineer, Medical Devices at VulcanForms, you will own the manufacturing systems that carry our printed parts from the build plate to a finished, inspected product. You will set the process architecture across product families — advanced manufacturing techniques, automation, and lean manufacturing methods — and define the standard that individual part processes are built against.

What they're looking for

  • Partner with operations, quality, the digital team, and the enterprise teams to design how product flows through the factory end to end
  • Lead Kaizen events, selecting which bottlenecks to attack and holding teams accountable for sustained improvement
  • Define the standards and templates for methods of manufacture in our ERP system, and govern how part-specific customer requirements are encoded against them
  • Own the process and quality documentation system — structure, configuration control, and revision governance
  • Build bespoke process dashboards that give execution teams visibility across the value stream, partnering with the digital team on data sources and models
  • Serve as the escalation point for complex process failures between printing and final delivery, driving root cause analysis and corrective action
