We thought we were catching up by recently filling two open positions: CFD Simulation Engineer and a sales position in Utah. But then another opportunity opened up to add a full time Product Design Engineer in support of PADT’s line of products for cleaning additive manufacturing parts. Although this position will work with our Product Development team, it is actually part of our advanced manufacturing group since the role focuses exclusively on a single product line which that group designs, manufactures, and supports. The job description is listed below, and can be found on our Careers Page along with the other currently open positions:
Electrical Engineer/Project Lead
IT Support Engineer
Sales Support Specialist, 3D Printing
Product Design Engineer
