Manufacturing Operations Engineer

Freeform is deploying software-defined, autonomous metal 3D printing factories around the world, bringing the scalability of software to physical production. Our proprietary technology stack leverages advanced sensing, real-time controls, and data-driven learning to produce digitally-verified, flawless parts at unprecedented speed and cost. Our mission is to make the transformative power of 3D printing available to all industries at scale and unlock the future of innovation.

As a Manufacturing Operations Engineer, you will play a lead role in optimizing and scaling the production processes for Freeform's metal 3D printing technology. You'll oversee the development and implementation of operational strategies that streamline production, improve efficiency, and ensure we meet customer demands and production targets. This includes refining post-print processes, managing production workflows, and working cross-functionally with engineering, business development, and leadership teams to align production capabilities with business goals.

In this role, you'll also help design and integrate new factory systems, support the transition of R&D prototypes into full-scale production, and continuously improve operations to maintain the pace of innovation. The ideal candidate is someone who enjoys working in a fast-paced, hardware-focused environment and can drive process improvements to maximize productivity and quality across the board.

3D printing experience is not required to be successful here - rather we look for smart, motivated, collaborative individuals who love solving hard problems and creating amazing technology!
