About the role
- We are seeking a Machine Learning Engineer to join our team developing machine learning solutions for quality assurance and process monitoring in additive manufacturing.
- Prior experience in additive manufacturing or 3D printing is not required.
- We are particularly interested in candidates with scientific, engineering, or technical backgrounds who have applied machine learning to complex real-world problems involving sensor data, physical systems, or experimental datasets, and who enjoy working closely with domain experts to deliver practical, high-impact solutions.
Responsibilities
- Develop ML models using in-process sensor data to identify anomalies and quality issues during printing.
- Build and iterate on training and evaluation workflows
- document experiments and results for reproducibility.
- Own ML experimentation end to end: Design datasets, preprocessing pipelines, and training workflows
- Help define data collection and management: Partner with process and software teams to improve how build data is ingested, cataloged, versioned, and made available for training and evaluation.
- Collaborate with supporting software engineers: Hand off validated Python prototypes for production hardening, provide clear specifications and acceptance criteria, and support integration and regression testing.
- Build and iterate on training and evaluation workflows; document experiments and results for reproducibility.
- Own ML experimentation end to end: Design datasets, preprocessing pipelines, and training workflows; iterate on model architectures and metrics; document experiments and results for reproducibility.
- Design datasets, preprocessing pipelines, and training workflows; iterate on model architectures and metrics; document experiments and results for reproducibility.
- Partner with process and software teams to improve how build data is ingested, cataloged, versioned, and made available for training and evaluation.
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, or a related field
- Strong Python skills and experience with modern ML frameworks (e.g., PyTorch).
- Experience designing ML pipelines: data loading, preprocessing, training, evaluation, and experiment tracking.
- Comfort working in a production software environment: version control, code review, testing, and cross-functional collaboration.
- Ability to communicate technical tradeoffs clearly to engineers and non-engineers.
- Experience organizing and working with structured and unstructured datasets.
- Experience with powder bed fusion or other additive manufacturing processes.
- Knowledge of manufacturing data workflows, IoT sensor data, or industrial automation systems.
Nice to have
- advanced degree preferred.
Compensation
- The starting base salary for this full-time position is between $150,000 and $220,000.
Benefits
- Experience with image-based or time-series machine learning.
