Applications Engineer supports both the pre-sales scoping process and the post-sales design and implementation activities for complex technical products. Prepares and delivers sales demos and facilitates technical requirements gathering sessions. Being a Applications Engineer reviews customer technical specifications, recommends specific products or services, and estimates cost and effort for implementation. Plans and designs the configuration of products for initial implementation or the deployment of custom solutions, enhancements, or upgrades. Additionally, Applications Engineer troubleshoots problems and oversees the completion of repairs, workarounds, or customizations. Delivers technical product training to customers and internal audiences. Requires a bachelor's degree. Typically reports to a manager. The Applications Engineer work is closely managed. Works on projects/matters of limited complexity in a support role. To be a Applications Engineer typically requires 0-2 years of related experience. (Copyright 2024 Salary.com)
Divergent is on a mission to democratize the design and manufacture of vehicles. We want to enable a future where small entrepreneurial teams across the globe will bring increasingly material and energy efficient transportation solutions to market with a fraction of the capital and time.
Divergent has invented a complete manufacturing solution to address system level challenges. The Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS) is a complete software hardware solution designed to replace traditional vehicle manufacturing. To make the complex simple, it is a complete modular digital factory for complex structures. Given a set of digital requirements as input, the machine automatically computationally engineers, additively manufactures, and assembles any complex structure. The system is able to move seamlessly between manufacturing different vehicle models.
Divergent 3D is on a mission to democratize the design and manufacture of vehicles. We want to enable a future where small entrepreneurial teams across the globe will bring increasingly material and energy efficient transportation solutions to market with a fraction of the capital and time.
The current auto manufacturing system is economically and environmentally broken. Divergent invented a manufacturing system that combines software, additive manufacturing, and assembly technologies to radically reduce the material, energy, time and capital required to design and build vehicles. This will transform the automotive industry from capital intensive to innovation intensive while dramatically reducing the lifecycle environmental impact of vehicles. Over the past two years, the company has been recognized for its disruptive innovation, receiving the Frost & Sullivan Innovation of the Year and the inaugural Petersen Innovation in the Automotive Industry awards as well as being named a Google Moonshot company.
Your Role: Additive Manufacturing Applications Engineer
Divergent is seeking an experienced and motivated engineer to advance our production system through the evolution and maturation of tools to support 3D printing, build file preparation, and optimization.

•Being self-sufficient to make critical engineering decisions on assigned projects.
•Interface with engineering, software, and manufacturing groups to understand process constraints and provide design inputs for improved printability and tools development.
•Advance our techniques for support structure optimization, with the opportunity to add to our patent portfolio in this area.
•Improve our distortion and error reduction activities, helping to ensure part tolerance accuracy.
•Continually pursue improvements for support material reduction, part packing density, powder egress, and build success rate.
•Evaluate and recommend software tools that can help to achieve production goals.
•Optimize 3-dimensional build layout and part nesting in support of achieving printer productivity rates.
•Follow defined procedures and processes and help to create them where needed.
•Work with supplied CAD files to prepare build files for 3D printing.
•Generate build time estimates in support of program planning and execution.
•Able to create standard engineering drawing documentation according to ANSI/ASME Y14.1 whileutilizing GD&T principles
•Able to provide continuous improvement feedback on internal process workflow.
What You Have:
•BS in Mechanical Engineering or MS in ME, Additive Manufacturing or Equivalent.
•3-4 years of experience using CAD (NX or Solidworks) and CAM (Magics or AM Studio) tools for build preparation in support 3D printed metal component design and production.
•In depth, current experience with process simulation software such as Magics, Simufact, Netfabb, or 3DSIM.
•Extensive experience developing fully integrated applications for Additive Manufacturing. Automotive, Aerospace and Defense experience is a plus.
•Understanding of metallurgy to include Aluminum, carbon steel, stainless steel, Titanium, and nickel base alloys.
The Extras
•Previous programming experience – Python, C, Matlab, or other object oriented.
•Experience with computer aided robotic path development.
•Understanding of metallurgy to include Aluminum, carbon steel, stainless steel, Titanium, and nickel base alloys .
•Applied college engineering experience (FSAE/Formula Student programs a strong plus).
