About Seurat
Seurat is transforming manufacturing for people and our planet by delivering a scalable additive manufacturing solution to fundamentally change how products are made. Seurat’s proprietary Area Printing process, developed at Lawrence Livermore National Labs (LLNL), allows metal components to be manufactured at price points and quality levels that compete directly with conventional manufacturing techniques, enabling the reshoring of supply chains and promoting the decarbonization of industry. Seurat has raised over $180M and is backed by leading venture partners like Capricorn, NVentures (NVIDIA), True Ventures, General Motors Ventures, Denso, Porsche SE, SIP global partners, Honda, Xerox Ventures/Myriad Venture Partners, Cubit Capital, Siemens Energy, and Maniv Mobility.
General Description:
Seurat Technologies is seeking a highly motivated Application Engineer to join the process engineering team and work on a revolutionary and proprietary laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) based additive manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing technology. This new Area Printing technology greatly enhances the quality and productivity of metal additive manufacturing process. The ideal candidate should have a strong background in additive manufacturing, with expertise in design for additive manufacturing (DFAM), various post-processing techniques specifically for AM, and analytical characterization of printed parts.
Responsibilities:
- Collaborate with Seurat’s process, materials and application engineers and provide feedback during the iterations of designing, testing, and part manufacturing.
- Characterize printed parts using inspection equipment to address and resolve design-related issues that may impact the quality of printed components in production.
- Develop post-processing workflows for customer applications using standard and specialty equipment.
- Generate and finalize part design and assist process engineers to develop proper manufacturing processes based on first principles, materials characterization results, metrology data, process data, and simulation results.
- Understand and translate application constraints and performance criteria into design requirements optimized for Area Printing.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate the design process into product development workflows and lead/support activities such as design for Area Printing guidelines.
- Stay abreast of advancements in metal 3D printing technologies, materials, and design methodologies and continuously evaluate and integrate new tools and techniques to improve processes and outcomes.
Requirements:
- Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or similar technical discipline.
- 5+ years of professional experience with additive manufacturing.
- Experience using nTopology and other AM software such as Magics, Netfabb, and SolidWorks
- Understanding of post-processing techniques for additive manufacturing components and how to design for manufacturability.
- Strong knowledge of mechanical drawings and GD&T.
- Excellent communication, analytical, and problem-solving skills, with the ability to think innovatively in the context of additive manufacturing.
- Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced environment.
- Travel up to 10%.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Familiarity with thermal and mechanical design and its application in additive manufacturing.
- Experience using Generative Design and topology optimization software.
- Proven hands-on experience with metal additive manufacturing processes.
- Experience with rapid prototyping and fixture design using polymer 3D printers.
