Senior Systems Print Engineer
Location: Waltham, Massachusetts, United States
Department: Engineering
Markforged (NYSE: MKFG) is leading the digital transformation of manufacturing by revolutionizing how engineers and manufacturers create and innovate. Our unique platform combines software, advanced materials (including cutting-edge metal and composite technologies), and industrial 3D printers to deliver strong, functional parts for various industries. We empower customers to overcome supply chain complexities, reduce costs, and accelerate innovation by producing high-performance tools, fixtures, prototypes, and end-use parts in-house.
Senior Systems Print Engineer
The Systems Print Engineers at Markforged are multidisciplinary engineers that implement processes, testing, and tooling to solve the intrinsically hard problems of building easy-to-use and “just-press-print” 3D printers. We are the glue that pulls together the traditional engineering disciplines to make the printing process reliable and perform exceptionally.
As a Systems Print Engineer, you will become a system-level expert with our printing technology. You will apply 1st principles and multi-disciplinary engineering to the printing process that discovers & delivers success metrics to achieve maximum printing performance. You will be required to build strong cross-disciplinary relationships as you work together with other engineering teams to deliver results. You will spend most of your time working in the printer labs to be hands-on with implementing & facilitating development projects.
What you will own:
- Develop process and be hands-on with the validation of new print system hardware, new printing materials, and new printer features to ensure we ship high quality products
- Design experiments & build tooling that apply to the printer systems to facilitate root cause analysis, validate system functionality, and identify new areas for improvement.
- Responsible for defining & validating technical success metrics around print quality & product performance based on product requirements (e.g. part dimensional accuracy, surface quality, mechanical properties, etc.).
- Lead root cause analysis to debug print failures internally and from the customer field, as well as work with other teams to implement fixes
- Collaborate with other engineering disciplines to build the knowledge required to be a printer expert, and act as the key stakeholder for print system functional requirements to meet print performance success metrics. For example:
- Work with our slicer software team to design new print settings, then build & execute test plans to tune the settings to optimize for print performance
- Assist our hardware teams in the design of new print system hardware by providing expertise in system functional requirements, then build & execute test plans that validate the print performance of new hardware
What you have:
- 5+ years experience in mechanical engineering, materials engineering, systems engineering, or other relevant area
- Bachelors in Engineering or equivalent experience
- Passion for understanding why things don’t work!
- Hands-on experience debugging hardware
- Experience in data analysis and experimental design
- Familiarity with CAD
- Familiarity with scripting in Python for data analysis
- Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail
- Excellent team player; comfortable working in a fast-paced, dynamic, multidisciplinary team
- Excellent verbal & written communication skills
