Additive Manufacturing Specialist - Post Processing

Seurat Technologies is seeking a hands-on Additive Manufacturing Specialist – Post-Processing to oversee revolutionary, proprietary Area Printing (LPBF) workflows, part post-processing, and quality control. The ideal candidate demonstrates comprehensive capabilities across the full lifecycle of printed metal components, including:

• Collaborating on part placement strategies and print layout designs that streamline downstream removal and post-processing,
• Developing standardized, high-throughput post-processing workflows that prevent plate backlogs and accelerate turnaround times,
• Operating thermal processing equipment, including furnaces for stress relief and heat treating,
• Utilizing precision measurement tools—such as desktop Keyence CMMs, Keyence imaging systems, standalone CMMs, tensile testing rigs, and Archimedes density measurement,
• Running shop equipment (CNC machines, wire EDMs, and band saws) to separate parts from build plates, perform support structure removal and part finishing, and
• Executing routine maintenance and basic troubleshooting for post-processing and shop equipment.

• →Develop & Optimize Workflows: Establish high-throughput post-processing and plate management workflows that eliminate production bottlenecks and accelerate turnaround times.
• →Layout Strategy & Part Removal: Collaborate on build layout and part placement strategies to streamline downstream part removal, support structure removal, and surface finishing.
• →Thermal Processing: Operate thermal processing equipment, including furnaces for stress relief and heat treating of additively manufactured components.
• →Equipment Operation: Operate traditional shop machinery, including CNC tools, wire EDMs, and band saws, to execute precise support removal and part separation.
• →Metrology & Testing: Utilize precision measurement systems—such as Keyence desktop CMMs, Keyence optical imaging, standalone CMMs, tensile testing rigs, and Archimedes density systems—to inspect and validate finished parts.
• →Maintenance & Troubleshooting: Conduct routine maintenance and basic troubleshooting tasks on thermal, post-processing, and ancillary shop equipment.
• →Team Guidance: Guide technicians on standard post-processing procedures, safety protocols, and quality control checks for LPBF/Area Printing components.

• B.S. or above in engineering disciplines.
• 3+ years of experience in manufacturing, engineering, or R&D in related fields.
• Strong verbal and written communication skills.
• Work effectively with a cross functional and multidisciplinary team environment.
• Travel up to 10%.

• Experience of working in commercial metal AM manufacturing facilities (service bureaus, manufacturing divisions, laboratories, etc.) is highly preferred.
• Experience in Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) based metal printing is strongly preferred.
• Experience in laser welding of commonly used metal (ferrous and nonferrous) materials.
• Experience in designing and operating sophisticated industrial equipment.
