Founded in 2015 to develop the world's first industrially scalable laser metal additive manufacturing solution, VulcanForms is reshaping how the world manufactures critical products. We build and operate advanced digital infrastructure that enables innovation, accelerates growth, and supports sustainability across aerospace, defense, medical, and other essential industries. Through our vertically integrated capabilities, including scalable additive manufacturing and precision machining, we deliver true end-to-end production at scale by combining cutting-edge technology with a foundation of proven industrial craftsmanship. Our team brings deep expertise in manufacturing, materials science, software, automation, and operations, united by a shared commitment to quality, curiosity, and accountability. We foster an inclusive culture where people take ownership, solve meaningful problems, and continuously learn, because we believe diverse perspectives lead to better outcomes. VulcanForms Inc. seeks a Manufacturing Engineer for our Devens, MA location. This key position is also targeted at covering weekend support in some form of shift configuration in order to give better engineering support to operations. Job Purpose The Manufacturing Engineer is responsible for taking new products from post-print to finished product by developing and scaling robust post-processing and subtractive manufacturing operations. They provide technical leadership for the Production Team, defining process requirements, coordinating suppliers, and implementing tooling and equipment solutions for post-processing printed parts and components. The engineer collaborates cross-functionally to deliver safe, efficient processes that meet quality, cost, capacity, and customer requirements.

  • Define and support the design of subtractive post-processing steps (e.g., machining, blasting, deburring) for new product introductions; turn product designs and requirements into robust, scalable manufacturing processes.
  • Oversee the implementation of subtractive manufacturing processes by collaborating with in-house technicians and external suppliers. Coordinate machine setup and process validation while maintaining technical ownership.
  • Define functional requirements for tooling, fixturing, and post-processing equipment, including identifying opportunities for automation or capital investment to improve productivity. Partner with suppliers to deliver reliable solutions, and lead their implementation, testing, and validation.
  • Write and maintain detailed work instructions, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and process documentation to ensure repeatable and high-quality production.
  • Lead Installation Qualifications (IQ) for manufacturing equipment and support QC and Quality Engineering in Operational and Performance Qualifications (OQ/PQ). Help ensure all processes meet quality and regulatory requirements.
  • Engage early in the NPI process to understand part requirements and contribute to design-for-manufacturability (DFM) decisions. Work closely with design, quality, and production teams to align on cost, capability, and scalability.
  • Collaborate with product and manufacturing teams to define takt time, throughput targets, and resource needs (equipment, labor, space) to support forecasted production volumes - including estimating manufacturing costs and time standards for new and existing products.
  • Work with the HSSE team to assess risks and ensure that new equipment and processes meet internal safety and ergonomic standards.
  • Drive process improvements aimed at scrap reduction and cost savings using root cause analysis, lean tools and data-driven decision making.
  • Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Manufacturing, or Industrial Engineering (or related field)
  • 5+ years of experience in manufacturing engineering, with a focus on post-processing and/or subtractive methods (e.g., machining, blasting, fixturing)
  • Hands-on experience developing and scaling production processes, including working with CNC equipment and subtractive manufacturing techniques
  • Proficiency in process qualification tools and methods (e.g., PFMEA, DOE, IQ/OQ/PQ)
  • Strong cross-functional collaboration skills, including working with suppliers, technicians, and internal engineering, quality, and production teams
  • Experience creating and maintaining process documentation (e.g., SOPs, work instructions, validation plans)
  • Knowledge of Lean Manufacturing, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement methods
  • Experience with metal additive manufacturing and transitioning printed parts to finished product
  • Familiarity with CNC machining principles, GD&T, and tooling design (hands-on or oversight)
  • Background in regulated or quality-controlled environments (e.g., medical device, aerospace) and experience qualifying equipment or automated processes
  • Exposure to ERP/MES systems, manufacturing data tools, and safety or ergonomic assessments
  • medical
  • dental
  • vision
  • life insurance
  • generous paid time off
  • 401(k) plan with company match
