Who this role is best for

Strong fit for early-career engineers with hands-on experience in electro-mechanical systems who thrive in collaborative, full-time roles in Boston.

Best fit for

  • Early-career engineers with hands-on electro-mechanical design experience and a passion for system integration
    — “Have previous experience designing complex electro-mechanical systems.”
  • Candidates who enjoy working on physical prototypes and resolving system-level issues collaboratively
    — “Resolve systems issues to improve their performance or recommend corrective actions to the functional group.”
  • Individuals with a background in motion control and sensor systems who can translate theoretical knowledge into practical solutions
    — “Knowledge of motion control, sensors and control algorithms.”

Things to consider

  • Candidates may need to handle firmware development, which could require additional C++ training
    — “Familiarity with low-level embedded firmware (C++ prefer)”

How to stand out

  • Highlight specific projects where you integrated hardware and firmware for physical systems
    — “Bring together the firmware and hardware of the subsystems into one system”
  • Emphasize your ability to design and execute test plans to validate system requirements
    — “Design test plans to validate the requirements of subsystems/entire system”
  • Showcase your experience in managing system-level requirements and tracking changes
    — “Take ownership of managing sub-system/system level requirements and track changes.”
  • Demonstrate proficiency in Python or other scripting tools for automation and analysis
    — “Scripting experience with Python (preferred), Labview, Matlab, etc.”

About Formlabs:

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.

Your Impact:

Formlabs already has a substantial business selling 3D printers and resins to dental customers, who use our products for a wide spectrum of applications, from convenient in-office production of splints to sophisticated lab-based orthodontics.

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

 The Job:

Bring together the firmware and hardware of the subsystems into one system, bring prototypes through integration hell, and ensure that they work optimally as per requirements and deliver physical prototypes

Partner with system architect to create and document visual descriptions of systems and subsystems and their inputs and outputs.

Establish the interfaces between the sub-systems, define/refine control algorithms or even design sub-systems that are electro-mechanical in nature.

Take ownership of managing sub-system/system level requirements and track changes.

Design test plans to validate the requirements of subsystems/entire system, execute the tests and analyze the results.

Resolve systems issues to improve their performance or recommend corrective actions to the functional group.

You:

Have previous experience designing complex electro-mechanical 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)

Scripting experience with Python (preferred), Labview, Matlab, etc.

Bonus Skills: 

Familiarity with low-level embedded firmware (C++ prefer)

Experience in data analysis and reporting

Experience with consumer electronics

Our Benefits & Perks:

Robust equity program to build future wealth through RSUs

Comprehensive healthcare coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)

401K matching and access to financial advisors

Generous paid Parental Leave (up to 16 weeks)

Tenure-based paid Sabbatical Leave (up to 6 weeks)

Flexible Out of Office Plan – Take time when you need it

Ample on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits
