Our Client

Our client is looking for 3D Printing Machine Technicians to join their manufacturing team in the Roxbury / Needham area of Massachusetts, with opportunities available across both shifts.

This is an opportunity to join a manufacturing environment focused on 3D printing and additive manufacturing. The role would suit someone with previous machine operating experience, a strong mechanical aptitude and an interest in developing their career within advanced manufacturing.

A degree isn’t required. Our client is keen to hear from practical, hands-on individuals who understand machinery, are comfortable working in a manufacturing environment and are eager to learn new technologies.

The Role

As a 3D Operator, you will be responsible for operating and monitoring manufacturing equipment, ensuring production processes run smoothly and products meet the required quality standards.

Key responsibilities include:

• Operating and monitoring 3D printing and manufacturing equipment.
• Following work instructions, production procedures and health and safety requirements.
• Carrying out quality checks to ensure products meet the required specifications.
• Identifying and reporting issues with machinery, materials or finished products.
• Maintaining accurate production records and documentation.
• Keeping the work area clean, organised and safe.
• Working alongside colleagues to meet production targets and maintain quality standards.
• Learning new processes and technologies as part of ongoing development.

About You

The ideal candidate will have:

• Previous machine operating or manufacturing experience.
• Good mechanical aptitude and an understanding of machinery.
• An interest in 3D printing, additive manufacturing or advanced manufacturing technologies.
• Strong attention to detail and a commitment to quality.
• The ability to follow technical instructions and established procedures.
• A willingness to learn and develop new skills.
• A reliable, hands-on approach and the ability to work independently and as part of a team.

A degree isn’t essential. Candidates with practical manufacturing experience, vocational qualifications, college diplomas or an engineering-related background are encouraged to apply.

Experience in additive manufacturing would be beneficial, but a strong mechanical understanding and willingness to learn are equally important.

Experience and Background

We’d particularly welcome applications from:

• Machine operators with experience in a manufacturing environment.
• Candidates with a mechanical or engineering background.
• People with experience handling, setting up or monitoring machinery.
• Candidates who have completed relevant college courses, apprenticeships or diplomas.
• Individuals looking to move into additive manufacturing and develop a longer-term career in the sector.
