Job Description:

Internships at Formlabs give students the opportunity to create, build, solve, and discover in every area of our business. Come build your career and build the future of 3D printing. Materials development presents one of the greatest opportunities in 3D printing. As a Materials intern, you’ll work side-by-side in the lab with the rest of our Materials team. You’ll get an opportunity to constantly develop, formulate, and test materials that we’ve never printed with before -- and every experiment plays a big role in how we solve new challenges in 3D printing.

Job Responsibility:

Work on a PhD-level R&D project in our materials development lab

Requirements:

  • Passionate about material science or chemistry
  • Comfortable working in a wet lab environment
  • Have completed research or coursework with polymers
  • Comfortable working with CAD programs (ie SolidWorks)
  • Basic computer programming (Python)
  • Background in organic chemistry or plastic engineering
What we offer:
  • Flexible Out of Office Plan
  • Ample on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits
  • Catered on-site lunches (3x per week), snacks, beverages, & treats
