Job Summary:

The Engineering Technician is a highly hands-on contributor responsible for supporting the Mechanical Engineering team in the development and prototyping of innovative medical devices. This role plays a critical part in accelerating product development through prototype fabrication, design verification (DV) builds, and effective management of shop and additive manufacturing resources.

This position partners closely with engineers to translate designs into functional hardware, maintain a high-performing prototyping environment, and continuously improve build processes and lab capabilities. The Engineering Technician thrives in a fast-paced R&D environment and brings a strong “maker” mindset, technical expertise, and ownership of execution.

Prepare models for printing (slicing, orientation, material selection)
Execute print jobs and post-processing (cleaning, curing, finishing)
Troubleshoot print failures and optimize print quality and efficiency
Establish and maintain best practices for additive manufacturing workflows
Manage material inventory and equipment upkeep

General Engineering Support

Assist with fixture design, jig fabrication, and quick-turn solutions
Support lab organization and equipment calibration/maintenance
Contribute to continuous improvement of prototyping capabilities and workflows
Work cross-functionally with engineering, quality, and operations teams

General Qualifications

Associate degree or technical certification in Mechanical Engineering Technology, Manufacturing, or related field (or equivalent hands-on experience)
3+ years of experience in a prototype, R&D, or machine shop environment
Proficiency operating manual shop equipment (mills, lathes, etc.)
Hands-on experience with 3D printing technologies and post-processing methods
Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings and CAD models
Strong mechanical aptitude and troubleshooting skills
High attention to detail and commitment to quality

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in medical device or regulated industry environments
Familiarity with GD&T and tolerance analysis
Exposure to CAD software (e.g., SolidWorks, Creo, or similar)
Knowledge of common prototyping materials (plastics, metals, elastomers)
Experience supporting design verification (DV) or validation builds

Key Competencies

Hands-on problem solver with a “maker” mindset
Strong organizational and time-management skills
Ability to manage multiple build priorities simultaneously
Excellent communication and collaboration with engineering teams
Ownership mentality for lab and shop environments
