The annual base pay range for this role is: $130,000—$250,000 USD
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.
Include a portfolio with your application to show us what you can do.
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
Flex your global savvy by working with teams around the world, virtually and in-person. Intermittent travel is expected.
Apply your knowledge of manufacturing techniques like injection molding and sheet metal fabrication to the world of 3D printing
Solve customer problems by using your engineering skills to eliminate friction at every stage of their workflow
You can’t wait to build a precision tool that combines the power of injection molding with the beauty of the iPhone.
You have 2+ years of industry experience
You want to build a precision tool that is beautiful inside and out (but don’t take our word for it)
You know how to partner with people in any role with the genuine goal of getting work done and doing it well
You love the gritty details of part design, material selection, and manufacturing techniques, because you know it’s important to commit to a vision and fail fast
You craft elegant designs that function with efficiency and simplicity
You work confidently in 3D CAD software (Solidworks/Onshape) to design components, produce drawings, and build assemblies
You deeply understand the full product development cycle
If you have Python skills, experience with contract manufacturers, know PLM or document control systems, or have a passion for industrial design, we want you to apply!
Unlimited 3D printing with any Formlabs material on any Formlabs printer
An equity program that will let you build wealth through RSUs
Healthcare coverage (medical, dental, vision) that includes a totally free employee-only plan, effective starting on your first day on the job
401K matching with no vesting or tenure requirement
Generous parental leave (fully paid up to 16 weeks)
Flexible time off so you can take time when you need it
Six-week fully paid sabbatical after hitting tenure milestones (with the option to take an additional six weeks after that)
Free on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits
Free on-site lunch, snacks, beverages, treats, beer kegs, and employee-favorite local coffee and espresso
Self-driven professional development opportunities like conferences, trade shows, and hackathons
One-of-a-kind activities and events like monthly socials, the annual weekend summer camp, a can’t-miss company hackathon, and lots of other social opportunities
You don’t need to check every box to apply for a role. If you love working with hardware, spending time with smart people, solving hard problems, and winning, we want to hear from you.
We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
