Mechanical Engineer - Chicago, United States - Phase3d
Description
Phase3DMechanical Engineer
Chicago, IL
About Phase3D:
We are a university and national lab spinout, commercializing a computer vision technology which performs
in-situ
monitoring for industrial 3D printing (additive manufacturing, AM). This technology dramatically changes the metal AM industry by providing immediate component certification and early cancellation of defective builds.
The Phase3D headquarters is in Chicago, located 5 miles from the Chicago Loop.
We work closely with federal scientists and engineers to develop machine vision technology for additive manufacturing (camera and software based).
We have established research partnerships with multiple national laboratories, US departments, NASA, and research institutions.About Phase3D Culture:
Phase3D is currently a small team, comprised of independent thinkers, working to solve challenges in software development, data analysis, mechatronics, electrical engineering, and computer engineering.
We are a cross-disciplined group and are excited to be pioneers in the rapidly evolving field of artificial intelligence and machine learning for 3D printing.
This is a fast-paced, startup work environment, but with the resources and facilities of a US national Laboratory. This means a lot of variability of workflow and responsibilities, with an emphasis on creative problem solving.You will have the chance to be a part of a team making headlines in the 3D printing world.
