Preferred Skills:

Experience in the EV or Automotive industry. - Basic knowledge of CAD software for mesh repair. - Understanding of DFAM principles. Join us for the opportunity to own and design systems and processes, work with advanced composite materials, and be part of a high-energy startup environment where your contribution directly impacts product speed-to-market. As an Additive Manufacturing Engineer at our fast-growing and innovative startup, your primary responsibility will be to lead our in-house rapid prototyping lab and support production tooling needs. You will be the "owner" of our internal 3D printing facility, managing a fleet of FDM and SLA printers to ensure high uptime and professional-grade output. Your role will involve bridging the gap between digital R&D designs and physical, functional prototypes. Key Responsibilities:

Lab & Fleet Management

Operate and maintain a fleet of FDM and SLA 3D printers, ensuring at least 90% uptime. - Perform mechanical repairs and electronic troubleshooting. - Maintain spare parts inventory and track machine performance metrics. - Slicing & Process Optimization

Demonstrate expert-level proficiency in Orca Slicer. - Optimize slicing strategies for support generation, part orientation, and multi-part nesting. - Prepare and repair STL files for successful prints. - Material Science & Calibration

Qualify and develop print profiles for various materials. - Execute calibration schedules for dimensional accuracy and flow rate tuning. - Post-Processing & Quality

Perform high-quality finishing and validate dimensions using precision tools. - Ensure prototypes meet functional tolerances. - Documentation

Build and maintain a technical "Internal Wiki" for SOPs, material profiles, and maintenance logs. Required Qualifications & Skills:
