Lediga jobb Nobula3D AB i Stockholm

We are Nobula® glass 3D printing and we are looking for an Application Engineer to join us.

Who are we?

We are an additive manufacturing startup transforming glass applications through the Direct Glass Laser Deposition (DGLD®) technique. Our technology features a novel, laser-based glass 3D printer that utilizes thin glass filaments as feedstock. Our vision is to expand the potential applications of glass 3D printing with a strong focus on sustainability.

Why is this interesting?

Traditionally, Glass manufacturing has always been expensive, time consuming, and only suited for standardized mass productions.

From life sciences to optics and photonics, there is an increasing need for customizable, fast, affordable, and sustainable glass production-especially in sectors focused on innovation, prototyping, and rapid customization.

Our vision is to enable glass foundries to be placed anywhere, from office desks, labs, to factories.

What have we accomplished?

We have successfully launched pilot projects with clients like Schott AG, one of Germany's largest multinational glass companies, and Lund University in Sweden. Currently, we are engaged in over 40 active, ongoing projects.

We've also raised more than 55 million SEK in investments from some of the most successful and well-connected organizations including European Innovation Council (EIC), venture capitalists, business angels, KTH Holding, and the Sting incubator.

We are a team of 4 with offices and laboratories in central Stockholm. As we enter the next phase of scaling, we believe it would be an excellent opportunity for you to join us.

Who are we looking for?

We are in search of an exceptional Application Engineer with a passion for process development and finding new applications.

As our next team member, you will be a key player to lead our printer developement from prototype to market-ready product. We are looking for someone eager to build and scale their next big global technology venture alongside us.


Responsibilities:

- Maintain and operate glass 3D printer units/farm.

- Manage production for customers, and develop design and print process for technical demonstrations.

- Prepare and post-process printed parts.

- Develop applications and use cases.

- Assist software UI development.

- Service the printers (able to travel abroad).

- Manage relevant supply chain.

- Develop glass 3DP training for technicians/users.

What we offer:

- An opportunity to shape your own work as a key engineer in a pioneering tech startup experiencing exponential growth.

- Equity: early team members and leadership roles will be offered options depending on role.

- Potential leadership role.

- Working in a state-of-art AM lab at central Stockholm with the founding team.

- A competitive salary.

Major requirements:

- Advanced degree in Mechanical, Optics, Materials Science, Robotics, or equivalent experience.

- Positive attitude, problem solver, independent worker.

- Passion for new applications and advanced manufacturing methods.

- 3+ year of experience of using 3D printing technology (metal, plastic, polymers, glass, etc).

- Comfortable working with tools and equipment for machine maintenance.

- Comfortable writing technical reports and validation documentation.

- Experienced in 3D modeling for 3D printing (Solidworks, Solidedge, etc).

Skills that will make you stand out:

- General knowledge of lasers, optics, optical components.

- General knowledge of traditional glass manufacturing methods: machining, molding, embossing, etching.

- Interested in creating marketing content such as case studies, webinars, one pagers, etc.

- Teaching skills.

- Understanding of ISO9001, CE marking, product compliance. Visa mindre

Industrial postdoc researcher and future research lead

NOTE the recruitment is now on a rolling basis and the application deadline is extended to 2023-09-15

Nobula is hiring for a permanent full-time role in central Stockholm, starting fall 2023.

Nobula is a 3D printing startup that is developing the Direct Glass Laser Deposition (DGLDTM) technique. Our technology features a novel laser-based glass 3D printer utilizing thin glass filaments as feedstock. The current printing feedstock comprises glass filaments made of fused silica glass, with the aim to study different types of glass suitable for 3D printing. Our vision is to expand the potential applications of glass 3D printing with a strong focus on sustainability.

Nobula’s notable achievements include winning the Formnext 2021 Startup Challenge and reaching the finalist stage at the 2023 Hello Tomorrow Global Challenge. With over 40 active projects, we've caught the attention cross multiple industries. Our investors include the European Innovation Council (EIC), venture capitalists, business angels, KTH Holding, and the STING incubator.



Join a growing startup on an amazing journey within glass 3D printing!

We are looking for an exceptionally innovative and driven individual to join Nobula’s R&D team in our mission to further develop our state-of-art glass additive manufacturing technology, and contribute to the advance of sustainable glass fabrication.

Industrial postdoc project: Sustainable fabrication of advanced photonic components through glass 3D printing
In your first two years at Nobula, you will be enrolled in the Wallenberg Initiative Materials Science for Sustainability (WISE) program as an industrial postdoctoral researcher, in partnership with KTH’s Applied Physics department. This program will refine your skills in glass science and technology, preparing you for a future leadership role at Nobula, driving innovation, research, and production. As part of WISE, you will immerse in an international academic-industrial environment and participate in WISE activities such as the Graduate school that will help to create your network.
