Senior Mechanical Engineer

Greentown Labs, Somerville, MA

Engineering, Full-Time, Hybrid

At the intersection of technology and creativity, 3D printing turns ideas into tangible realities. Metal is one of the most versatile materials — but today’s metal printing technologies are costly, hazardous, and limited to large-scale industrial use.

Studio 3e8 is a team that is changing that. We deliver a fully integrated hardware, software, and materials ecosystem that enables part production at the speed of information. Our mission is to make professional-grade fabrication affordable, compact, and easy to use—putting tomorrow’s manufacturing capabilities into the hands of today’s designers.

We’re looking for a Senior Mechanical Engineer to join our team in Somerville who can help us realize our vision and implementation of cutting-edge additive metal printing manufacturing. We’ve built a solution that works; we seek someone to help us optimize and scale from now to large-scale adoption.

We’re backed by some of the top VCs in the business, are proud members of Greentown Labs, and are ecstatic to be growing a team passionate about enabling an entirely new means of fabrication.
