    Description

    Role Overview:

    You will design and build the hardware, controls, and software stack required to print energetic materials safely and repeatably. This is a hands-on skunkworks role, part robotics engineer, part controls engineer, part startup builder.​

    Key Responsibilities

    • Design and build a prototype propellant 3D printer (extrusion or hybridsystem)​
    • Develop motion control systems (multi-axis gantry or robotic arm)​
    • Implement extrusion systems for high-viscosity, particle-loaded materials​
    • Write control software (Python/C++/embedded) for: Motion control;Deposition control; Process monitoring​
    • Integrate sensors (pressure, temperature, flow rate, vision systems)​
    • Develop closed-loop control for material flow and deposition quality​
    • Collaborate with chemist to match material properties to hardware capabilities​
    • Ensure system safety for energetic material handling​

    Requirements
