What is the difference between Senior Metal 3D Printing vs Metal Additive Manufacturing Technician?

AspectSenior Metal 3D PrintingMetal Additive Manufacturing Technician
CredentialsExperience in 3D printing, engineering background, certifications in additive manufacturingTechnical training, certifications in metal AM processes, hands-on experience
Work EnvironmentDesign labs, manufacturing facilities, R&D departmentsProduction floors, machine operation areas, quality control labs
Industry UsageDesign, development, and oversight of metal 3D printing projectsOperating, maintaining, and troubleshooting metal AM equipment

While both roles involve metal additive manufacturing, a Senior Metal 3D Printing professional typically focuses on project management, design, and process optimization, whereas a Metal Additive Manufacturing Technician handles the hands-on operation and maintenance of 3D printers. The senior role requires more advanced technical knowledge and strategic oversight, while the technician role emphasizes practical skills and equipment handling.

Job description

Company Description
NanoCore Technologies is an early stage technology company developing a method of metal additive manufacturing an order of magnitude less complicated and less expensive than existing printers. Today, popular metal 3D printers cost half a million dollars or more and use complicated high-powered lasers and controlled atmospheres. NanoCore is taking an entirely different approach that utilizes proprietary materials science and machine design to make metal 3D printing easier, simpler and less expensive than previously imaginable. To put it simply, we believe our technology will fundamentally change how metal parts are made.
We are a dedicated team of engineers and scientists passionate about manufacturing innovation. We see technical challenges as opportunities, and through focus and teamwork we find creative solutions. Apply only if you are excited about getting your hands dirty. NanoCore is located in San Francisco, CA and is walking distance to BART & Caltrain and offers competitive salaries, benefits and stock options.
Job Description
You will utilize your software engineering skill set to help NanoCore bring our first metal 3D printer to market. You will contribute to PC or cloud-based deployments to realize future generations of NanoCore's machine control software. This role requires extensive laboratory and shop work, both routine and creative in nature. Activities include:
  • Conceiving and realizing toolpath generation algorithms to control NanoCore's machines, including researching and incorporating state of the art toolpath solutions.
  • Contributing to production codebases in C/C++, Python, and more; includes documentation, source repository management, and pursuit of software engineering best practices.
  • Designing DOE and verification test to prove software functionality on printer hardware.
  • Contributing to GUI development, cloud and IoT components, logging and database efforts.

Qualifications
