Printer Operator Jobs in Austin, TX (NOW HIRING)

RESPONSIBILITIES:

Wall System Feature Development

• Own assigned wall system development efforts from requirements definition through field deployment; independently identify the technical questions that need to be answered, engage the right SMEs across ICON to answer them, and drive each initiative to a conclusion without requiring external direction on routine decisions.

• Develop product requirements and specifications for ICON Wall System configurations, details, and printed construction elements; translate structural, material, software, and field constraints into clear, actionable product specs that cross-functional teams can execute against.

Product Documentation & Codification

• Maintain and expand ICON's library of producible printed construction elements - execution guides, installation details, component dependency maps, print sequence documentation, and operator procedures - ensuring each element is fully documented from design intent through field-executable procedure.

• Develop constructability logic and component interaction rules for ICON Wall System details; codify frameworks and standards that give other engineering and software teams a reliable foundation to build from.

Validation & Testing

• Define validation requirements for new wall systems and construction elements; coordinate with Testing and Material Science teams to ensure printed systems are adequately vetted - structurally, thermally, and operationally - prior to field execution.

• Produce and maintain technical documentation supporting validation programs - calculation packages, performance records, and structured test result interpretation - building repeatable decision frameworks for system approval.

Cross-Functional SME Engagement

• Serve as the BACS lead for cross-disciplinary product development efforts; independently engage Software, Hardware, Testing, Structural Engineering, Materials Science, and Operations counterparts to gather inputs, surface conflicts, and move work forward.

• Own the interface between BACS engineering and Software development on wall system initiatives; translate engineering and constructability requirements into actionable digital component specifications for CODEX and BuildOS, and provide structured product feedback on relevant software feature development.

Internal Enablement

• Support internal ICON teams - Software, Hardware, Operations, and field - in understanding and implementing new wall system features and details; serve as the go-to BACS technical contact for implementation questions on assigned product areas.

• Provide field guidance during deployment of new or updated wall system details; offer direct technical support to print operators and site teams on construction sequences and element execution.

Product Lifecycle Management

• Maintain a current workplan for assigned wall system development initiatives; proactively surface risks, dependencies, and timeline pressures to BACS leadership before they become blockers.

• Use Jira and related project management tools to track development progress, document key decisions, and coordinate cross-functional deliverables.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

• Bachelor's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering, Architecture, Construction Management, or a related field with strong technical depth; equivalent demonstrated experience will be considered

• 8 or more years of experience in engineering design, construction technology, or product development (6 or more with a Master's degree).

• Demonstrated ability to own and drive cross-disciplinary technical initiatives independently - engaging the right stakeholders, resolving conflicts, and producing outcomes without close supervision.

• Proven experience developing technical documentation - specifications, execution guides, product frameworks, or construction sequencing - at a level of detail that multi-disciplinary teams can act on without re-interpretation.

• Deep expertise in at least one relevant technical domain: architectural detailing, enclosure performance, building science, structural analysis, or construction and print execution.

• Strong written communication skills; comfortable producing technical content with clarity and precision for diverse audiences.

• Solid understanding of construction systems, structural principles, and building methods - including sequencing, materials behavior, and field execution constraints.

• Ability to develop and document technical specifications, constructability frameworks, and product rulesets that others can act on reliably.

• Proficiency contributing to cross-functional product development initiatives within defined scope and under senior guidance.

• Working knowledge of design-to-build workflows, digital fabrication concepts, and software development processes; ability to engage productively with software teams on product specifications.

• Concrete material science literacy sufficient to interpret material behavior in the context of product design and documentation decisions.

PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:

• Master's degree in Civil or Structural Engineering, Architecture, or a related field.

• Experience with 3D-printed construction, advanced manufacturing methods, or digital fabrication workflows.

• Familiarity with CODEX, BuildOS, or similar design-to-build digital platforms.

• Experience contributing to software product development as a technical stakeholder - writing requirements, reviewing specifications, or providing structured product feedback.

• Proficiency with Jira or equivalent project and task management tools.

• Experience in construction technology development or R&D-to-production transitions.

• Background in concrete material science or printed concrete construction systems.
