1704 Additive Manufacturing Engineer

Turbomachinery and Heat Transfer Laboratory is seeking a highly motivated Additive Manufacturing Engineer to support advanced experimental research, development, and testing activities. The role combines hands-on operation of additive manufacturing systems, post-processing and furnace work, and close collaboration with researchers and engineers on cutting-edge metal and ceramic components for high-temperature and turbomachinery applications.

Job description:
Lead daily operations of the EOS M290 (LPBF/DMLS) and Lithoz CeraFab (LCM) systems, including scheduling and prioritization. 

Oversee material lifecycles: sieving, recycling and contamination control.

Perform preventive maintenance and routine service tasks.

Prepare, execute, and monitor AM builds - Build setup, orientation, support strategy, and parameter selection, powder handling, reuse, and safety procedures.

Perform post-processing operations – support removal, sintering. 

Support design-for-additive-manufacturing (DfAM) activities - self-supporting geometries, internal channels, monolithic parts; shrinkage, distortion, and tolerance considerations.

Use simulation and digital tools to improve print outcomes.
