To reinvent an industry, you have to build the best team. Join Formlabs if you want to bring groundbreaking professional 3D printers to the desktop of every designer, engineer, researcher, and artist in the world.

Electrical engineering at Formlabs bridges the gap between the analog and digital worlds. If you love to design and build boards from the ground up, develop firmware to control complex electromechanical systems, and produce elegant solutions to real-world problems, we want you as a Senior Electrical Engineer.

The Job:

  • Design and build prototypes and production electronic systems, including circuit design, PCB layout, embedded firmware development, bring up and validation
  • Design sensing and motion systems from scratch when off the shelf options have been proven unsuitable
  • Apply a scientific approach to engineering design problems by creating experiments, collecting and analyzing data, and making informed decisions
  • Grow into owning system-level architecture and mentoring other engineers

You:

  • Have a minimum of 3 years of experience designing production-ready electronics
  • Can share a portfolio that demonstrates your skills and experience
  • Are able to support your design choices with data
  • Are comfortable with code as well as with circuits: electrical engineers at Formlabs often get involved with bare-metal microcontroller firmware, embedded Linux, Python tooling development, and other software-related tasks
  • Are hands-on and interested in supporting your designs throughout the product lifecycle, from early research to debugging field failures

Bonus Skills:

  • Experience with line-voltage or high-power electronics
  • Experience with signal processing and/or digital feedback control systems
  • Experience debugging signal integrity and EMC issues

Our Perks & Benefits:

  • Robust equity program to build future wealth through RSUs
