Software Engineer, API & Automation

Do you want to change how the world creates

At Formlabs were building the tools that make it possible for anyone to bring their ideas to life from cutting-edge products to life-saving medical devices. Our 3D printing technology powers innovation at more than 50000 industry leaders worldwide including Apple Google Tesla New Balance and NASA. Together were helping everyone design prototype and manufacture faster than ever before.

Were a team of hands-on builders engineers and innovators reinventing how the world makes physical things. If youre ready to shape the future of fabrication come build it with us.

Our Software team develops a developer-friendly platform that enables programmatic access to PreForm and Formlabs printers. We build APIs SDKs and automation tools that allow customers and partners to integrate their applications and workflows with the Formlabs ecosystem. This work spans desktop applications embedded devices networking and cloud services. As a Software Engineer on the API & Automation team youll solve problems where reliability usability and system design are equally important building software that ultimately controls physical manufacturing processes.

Were looking for engineers at all experience levels from early-career engineers building their expertise to experienced engineers ready to take on complex technical challenges. You dont need previous 3D printing experience. Were looking for people who enjoy tackling difficult problems and are excited to build software that connects developers to physical manufacturing systems.
