Contract 3D printing is a service where businesses or individuals outsource their 3D printing needs to a specialized provider.

Shop & 3D Printing TechnicianJob Summary

We are seeking a versatile and detail-oriented Shop & 3D Printing Technician to join our production team. This hybrid role requires an individual who is equally comfortable using traditional hand and power tools as they are operating cutting-edge digital fabrication equipment.

  • 3D Scanning & Digital Capture: Operate 3D scanners to capture physical objects, clean up mesh data, and prepare digital models for production.

  • 3D Printing Operations: Set up, operate, and maintain various 3D printers (FDM/SLA). Optimize print settings, manage material inventory, and troubleshoot print failures.

  • Post-Processing & Finishing: Remove supports, sand, polish, and prepare 3D-printed parts for final assembly or painting.

  • Shop Fabrication: Use hand tools, precision measuring instruments (calipers, micrometers), and small power tools (dremels, bandsaws, sanders) to modify, fit, and assemble parts.

  • Quality Control: Ensure all fabricated components meet strict dimensional accuracy and quality standards according to project blueprints or digital files.

  • Shop Maintenance: Maintain a clean, organized, and safe workshop environment; perform routine maintenance on tools and 3D printing equipment.

Skills & Qualifications

  • Technical Fabricator: Proven experience working in a shop, laboratory, or studio environment utilizing small power tools and hand tools safely.

  • Precision Mindset: Exceptional skills in precise measurement and reading technical drawings or blueprints.

  • 3D Printing Expertise: Hands-on experience with 3D slicing software (e.g., Cura, PrusaSlicer, Chitubox) and operating 3D printers.

  • 3D Scanning: Familiarity with 3D scanning hardware and basic mesh editing software (e.g., Meshmixer, Blender, or proprietary scanning software).

  • Problem Solver: Ability to look at a mechanical or structural issue on a build and figure out the best physical or digital fix.

  • Physical Demands: Ability to stand for extended periods, handle small, intricate components, and lift up to 50 lbs.
