Company mission
To bring powerful and accessible fabrication tools into the creative hands of professionals around the world.
Role
Who you are
- Have previous experience (3+ years) designing complex electro-mechanical systems
- Knowledge of motion control, sensors and control algorithms
- Experience managing system and subsystem requirements
- Well versed in hardware debugging and passionate about understanding why things work (or don’t)
- Scripting experience with Python (preferred), Labview, Matlab, etc
Desirable
- Familiarity with low-level embedded firmware (C++ prefer)
- Experience in data analysis and reporting
- Experience with consumer electronics\
What the job involves
- Our printers sit in the middle of an interdependent ecosystem of software, mechanical, and electrical components. Ensuring printer success requires deep technical knowledge of the product as well as an ever-evolving understanding of how the product behaves in the field
- This role involves supporting all parts of the product development cycle from early R+D to continuing engineering for shipped products
- In addition, you’ll collaborate closely with design teams to overcome cross-disciplinary problems and ensure that we ship quality products
- If you’re eager to collaborate with other Systems Integration Engineers to support the full range of Formlabs products, we want you as a Senior Robotic Systems Integration Engineer
- Bring together the firmware and hardware of the subsystems into one system, bring prototypes through integration hell, and ensure that they work optimally as per requirements and deliver physical prototypes
- Partner with system architect to create and document visual descriptions of systems and subsystems and their inputs and outputs
- Establish the interfaces between the sub-systems, define/refine control algorithms or even design sub-systems that are electro-mechanical in nature
- Take ownership of managing sub-system/system level requirements and track changes
- Design test plans to validate the requirements of subsystems/entire system, execute the tests and analyze the results
- Resolve systems issues to improve their performance or recommend corrective actions to the functional group
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.
