    Description
    SENIOR MATERIALS ENGINEER (METAL 3D PRINTING)

    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 Senior Materials Engineer at Freeform, you will have the unique opportunity to establish the company's M&P infrastructure, strategy, and best practices for our advanced metal 3D printing technology.

    We are looking for someone with solid fundamentals in materials engineering, an understanding of metals, and a keen interest in working on the cutting edge of additive manufacturing development.

    In this role, you will own materials engineering efforts from cradle to grave, including hands-on sample testing, analysis of findings, and strategic process improvements.

    If you want to make an impact at a rapidly growing company that's revolutionizing metal additive manufacturing, we'd love to hear from you

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


    Responsibilities:
    Establish Freeform's M&P best practices and materials testing infrastructure/strategy

    Operate scanning equipment to measure and analyze material properties such as tensile strength, surface roughness, and alloy microstructure

    Generate and track quality metrics of printed customer parts such as dimensional accuracy, defect distribution, and surface roughness

    Organize data and present key findings

    Establish processes and procedures for measuring and quantifying material quality

    Work with process development team to tie key findings into improvement of upstream printing processes, including training our advanced machine learning models

    Create automation for M&P procedures to take human out of the loop

    Strategize continuous improvement plans to enhance system performance, reliability, and scalability


    Basic Qualifications:
    Bachelor's degree in material science, materials engineering, metallurgy, or mechanical engineering

    7+ years of professional materials engineering experience (with at least one year in metals)

    Experience developing and optimizing metallurgical sample preparation techniques such as cutting, grinding, polishing, acid etching, and optical microscopy


    Nice to Have:
    Master's or PhD in in material science, materials engineering, metallurgy, or mechanical engineering highly preferred

    10+ years of materials engineering experience

    Experience with metal additive manufacturing highly preferred

    Experience with laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) processes

    Experience in process development

    Experience operating complex equipment

    Familiarity with processing large datasets and statistical data analysis software such as R, JMP, or Minitab

    Passion for improving the state of metal 3D printing

    Excellent verbal and written communication skills


    Location:


    We are located in Hawthorne, CA in a 35,000 square foot, state-of-the-art facility featuring large open spaces for team collaboration, R&D, and production, as well as easy access to the 405, 105, and 110 freeways.

    Our facility is in the heart of Los Angeles' vibrant emerging tech ecosystem alongside many other high growth startups and enterprises.
