Job Description

Do you want to change how the world creates?

At Formlabs, we’re building the tools that make it possible for anyone to bring their ideas to life, from cutting-edge products to life-saving medical devices. Our 3D printing technology powers innovation at more than 50,000 industry leaders worldwide, including Apple, Google, Tesla, New Balance, and NASA. Together, we’re helping everyone design, prototype, and manufacture faster than ever before.

We’re a team of hands-on builders, engineers, and innovators reinventing how the world makes physical things. If you’re ready to shape the future of fabrication, come build it with us.

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 talented engineers to support the full range of Formlabs products, we want you as a Senior Robotic Systems Integration Engineer.

The Job:

  • Bring together firmware and hardware to enable subsystems in the printing pipeline, delivering fully-functional 3d printer prototypes.
  • Define and implement control algorithms and calibration procedures for complex electro-mechanical and electro-optical subsystems.
  • Developing sensor-based subsystems and characterization sensor performance.
  • Define and manage subsystem and system level requirements, ensuring engineering efforts are aligned with product needs.
  • Debug system level issues and work with the other engineering teams to implement design fixes.

You:

  • Have previous experience (5+ years, post grad) designing complex electro-mechanical systems or robotic 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!)
  • Are comfortable working fluidly across engineering disciplines – from mechanical design to electrical engineering to embedded software.
  • Comfortable working on Linux systems and scripting with Python

Bonus Skills: 

  • Familiarity with low-level embedded firmware (C++ preferred)
  • Experience in data analysis and reporting
  • Experience with consumer electronics and 3D printing

Our Perks & Benefits:

  • Robust equity program to build future wealth through RSUs
  • Comprehensive healthcare coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)
