Descripción del empleo

About Formlabs:To reinvent an industry, you have to build the best team. Join Formlabs to be part of our mission to build the tools that enable anyone to bring their ideas to life.Each Formlabs printer is a precision machine —a seamless orchestration of optics, mechanics, and chemistry. Its intelligence is driven by the critical layer in between: the firmware interpreting sensor data, the electrical architecture linking subsystems, and the integration layer that transforms individual components into a reliable tool for surgeons, engineers, and manufacturers worldwide.This is our printer's nervous system, and we are searching for the leader to own its evolution.Norbert Wiener coined the term cybernetics at MIT in 1948 to capture the idea of control systems across artificial and biological systems, kicking off decades of progress in this area. Over time, it has been broken down into narrow professional disciplines, including high-level software, embedded software, digital hardware design, analog hardware design, and mechanical engineering. It's time to reunite these fields to refocus on the goal - make systems flexible, robust, and intelligent.What You'll Do:Ship amazing products that are loved by customers and make a dent in the universe by making it easier for people to go from an idea to a real thing.Scale a world-class cybernetics engineering team, leading embedded engineering, systems integration, and electrical engineering globally.Solve for Performance. Drive the embedded and electrical breakthroughs that enable our printers to do what others think is impossible.Build the Brain. Create a modular architecture (main boards, chipsets, peripherals) that scales across our entire ecosystem.Iterate at Speed. Move from \"what if\" to a working prototype faster than anyone else in the industry.About You:You've shipped complex electromechanical products to production in high-performance environments — you understand what changes when you go from prototype to 100,000 units in the fieldYou have built high-performance teams.You are impatient and want to ship great products quickly.You are customer-obsessed, with a deep focus on the business to ensure we are building the right solutions for our customersYou dive deep into technical details across engineering and physics domains.Bonus Skills:Passion and experience in 3D printingEntrepreneurial experience that taught you what it takes to scale a businessOur Benefits & Perks:Robust equity program to build future wealth through RSUsComprehensive healthcare coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)401K matching and access to financial advisorsGenerous 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 itAmple on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefitsHealthy on-site lunches, snacks, beverages, & treatsRegularly sponsored professional development opportunitiesMany opt-in culture events across our diverse communityAnd of course… unlimited 3D printsWe are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company.
