Role

Who you are

Have a desire to hone your skills and learn more about engineering design and the process of bringing products to market
Have worked with mechanical or electro-mechanical systems and want exposure to the inner workings of 3D printers
Have one or more of the following hands-on experiences:
Lab research, member of a project team, prior internship or previous work experience
Have an up-to-date resume and portfolio of your previous experience to highlight what you have learned and how you have applied that learning

What the job involves

We’re looking for a hands-on engineer with a wide range of talents- from mechanical design to scripting, test design to data analysis. If this describes you, we want you on the team as a Hardware Systems Integration Intern
Creating a robust, high-reliability 3D printer necessitates a team of cross-disciplinary engineers who can understand complex system interactions to integrate new features, validate functionality, and test for reliability. As an intern, you will contribute to this process in the following ways:
Design and run studies to characterize and evaluate the performance of 3D printers
Design and build test setups to evaluate the reliability of 3D printer subsystems
Debug and diagnose issues with the electro-mechanical systems and work with the Mechanical, Electrical, and Embedded Firmware teams to implement fixes
Put your software skills to work by writing Python scripts, queries, and making tools to support reliability and characterization studies
Polish your time management and communication skills to increase your effectiveness as an engineer
Assist in building and commissioning prototypes

Application process

A portfolio of your previous engineering work/projects is required. Your application will not be considered without a portfolio

Our take

Formlabs' founders met at MIT in 2011, and set about creating a company that would disrupt the 3D printing market. While the majority of the industry was experiencing a crash, Formlabs managed to buck the trend by implementing additive manufacturing (stereolithography) to a desktop form factor.

While many 3D printing manufacturers have tried in vain to market their hardware to home users, Formlabs has maintained a laser-sharp focus on serving the needs of professionals and large-scale companies such as Coke and Sony. Striving to keep costs low while maintaining an optimal user experience, the company has sold well over 100,000 printers.

With considerable funding at its back, Formlabs has continued to develop new solutions such as a series of mass manufacturing solutions that enable its customers to dramatically increase their 3D printing output. As the largest supplier of professional SLA and SLS 3D printers in the world, the company is well set to further its position and achieve further global growth.
