About the role
- Starting a company is the ultimate test of product-market fit, execution, and resilient leadership.
- If your background fits, we'll talk about where your experience can have the most impact across our operations teams and match you to a role.
- We value bias for action, comfort with ambiguity, and deep ownership over outcomes.

- Build & Lead: Create and lead multi-disciplinary teams of talented engineers, operators, and designers. Hire and mentor the next generation of Formlabs leaders.
- New products usually fail because they cost too much to build or can't ship on time, not because the prototype didn't work.
- Wherever you land, you'll run the work you own like a mini-CEO and build the manufacturing, supply chain, and fulfillment that let Formlabs products scale globally.
Requirements
