Responsibilities

• Print Requests: Take requests from engineering, clarify material, tolerances, quantity, and deadline, and provide feedback on printability.
• Print Preparation: Prepare and slice models for FDM and resin printers, choosing settings, orientation, and supports for each part.
• Capacity Planning: Plan and track capacity across around 30 printers, prioritize competing requests, and keep requesters updated on status.
• Maintenance: Carry out routine and preventive maintenance, including nozzle and hot end changes, calibration, cleaning, belt and bed checks, firmware updates, and resin tank care.
• Supplier Repairs: Organize service jobs with suppliers for repairs beyond in-house maintenance and follow them up until each printer is back in operation.
