Cubicure ist ein international tätiges Hightechunternehmen mit Sitz im Herzen Europas. Wir entwickeln, produzieren und vertreiben Systemlösungen für die industrielle additive Fertigung. Unser patentiertes Hot Lithography Verfahren ermöglicht den beispiellosen 3D-Druck von widerstandsfähigen Präzisionsbauteilen.
As aR&D Lab Technicianyou will impact Cubicure’s development efforts in the field of photopolymer materials and related materials R&D, taking the whole additive manufacturing work-flow into consideration. As an innovative key contributor, you will be responsible for executing projects that focus on new product development, outside product assessment, improving Cubicure's existing productsandlong-term & innovative R&D strategies. In this function you will work together with a team of skilled professionals in the area of material development, 3D-printing, post-processing and material characterization & part testing.
In this role, you will…
- impact the development of Cubicure’s photopolymer portfolio materials and customized formulations.
- design and evaluate novel photopolymers/formulations for the application in lithography-based 3D-printing (e.g., stereolithography).
- evaluate novel mixing and formulating processes as material production technology.
- perform and establish 3D-printing of these formulations and post-processing strategies (e.g., physical and mechanical cleaning, thermal or UV post curing)
- analyze newly produced polymers/monomers/components and final formulations using chemical & physical characterization techniques. In addition, further characterize cured parts on a coupon level via established industrial testing protocols (e.g., ISO, ASTM).
- establish a positive and progressive working culture on the laboratory level.
- efficiently work on projects with cross-functional teams.
- prepare written reports summarizing key findings.
- identify and implement effective courses of action.
- carefully write and improve existing laboratory procedures.
- work independently at the laboratory bench to develop and evaluate new products or adapt and improve existing ones.
- set-up and handling of lab and testing equipment, materials, electricity, machines, and chemicals according to dedicated safety protocols.
In this role, you’ll need …
- 3+ years of material research & development experience, especially in monomer/polymer synthesis, engineering, characterization, and testing (e.g., DSC, IR-spectroscopy, rheology, (thermo)mechanical testing).
- Bachelor degree or equivalent in chemistry, polymer engineering, materials science, chemical engineering, or related field.
- strong technical knowledge, deep understanding of structure-property relationships and proficiency in polymers.
- to be a visionary, self-confident, creative, passionate, and professional decision maker and team player.
- exceptional communication and problem-solving skills.
Desired
- +3 years of photopolymer formulation experience.
- familiarity with chemistry and polymer characterization methods (mechanical testing, thermal analysis, rheology, spectroscopy, and the underlying theory).
- ability to work on projects that vary from routine to very complex.
- strong quality awareness and reliability
- ability to work independently and communicate the findings effectively (ideally in both, German and English).
