  • Order Fulfillment & Quality Assurance – Ensuring client orders are completed on time and meet quality standards.
  • Cross-Team Collaboration – Working closely with production staff to address operational challenges and maintain smooth workflows.
  • Equipment & Process Support – Gaining exposure to 3D printing equipment, post-processing techniques, and maintenance workflows.

Who You Are:

  • Highly organized and detail-oriented – You can manage multiple priorities and maintain accuracy in a fast-moving environment.
  • Proactive problem-solver – You take initiative to identify and address production challenges.
  • Eager to learn – You’re interested in manufacturing, engineering, or product development and want to build a foundation in production management.
  • Effective communicator – You can clearly coordinate with team members and relay important updates.
  • Tech-savvy and adaptable – You’re comfortable learning new software, tools, and workflows.
