Job Purpose

As a Senior Mechanical Engineer at VulcanForms, you will lead or contribute to the design, build, and deployment of mechanical subsystems to support our metal-additive printing operation.

  • Responsibilities will include tracking and driving aggressive project schedules and communication of status, progress, and challenges to engineering management.
  • Defining system requirements and specifications for the design, build, procurement, and deployment of machine systems. Designs and systems need to integrate seamlessly with current printer tooling and post-processing equipment while meeting all safety and handling requirements.
  • Managing external vendors as required to successfully meet project requirements and schedules.
  • Oversee and participate in the system integration, machine building, commissioning, and gathering first-hand feedback on the performance of designs.
  • Day-to-day work alongside a team of mechanical, controls, and process engineers and technicians in a fast-paced startup environment.

Qualifications:
  • 8 years of mechanical engineering experience, industry or research experience.
  • Demonstrated experience in machine or product design, showing successful track record of project completion, from conceptualization to development, verification and validation, and industrial implementation or commercialization.
  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills in mechanical systems.

Preferred
  • 10 or more years of industry or research experience
  • Experience with industrial equipment and automation design for handling and manipulation of heavy structures.
  • Hands-on familiarity with machine shop equipment and processes (e.g., manual and/or CNC milling machines, lathes, etc.)
  • Experience with PTC Creo and Windchill PDM

Benefits
  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance are available to you starting on your first day of employment
  • Generous time off package, including vacation PTO, sick PTO, and 14 company-paid federal holidays
  • 401(k) with company match and stock options
