Engineer or Physicist for industrial 3D Printing Projects Full Time

The Danish Technological Institute in Aarhus is Denmark’s leading knowledge centre for industrial 3D printing. We are expanding rapidly and have taken on many new projects. We are therefore looking for someone who loves working with 3D printing in research and development projects.

3D printing in research and development projects
When you join our R&D team which works on new projects based on requests from our partner companies, you will become part of a highly competent group of dedicated 3D print experts. Right from the start, you will be involved in all our 3D print-related projects. You will also quickly be given responsibility for project activities and project management. Most of your work will involve collaborating with project partners from both industry and universities.

Typical tasks will include:

• Project management and implementation of R&D projects
• Exploring project opportunities with companies
• Implementing knowledge and technology from R&D projects for use in commercial services
• Presenting results at courses, conferences, Open Labs, etc.

In addition, you will be expected to play an active role in the technological and commercial development of the Institute’s activities in the field of 3D printing.

Depending on your skills and interests, your technological tasks may include everything associated with 3D printing, including: Design and process simulation, design optimisation, introduction of new materials for 3D printing, characterisation and quality assurance of printed parts, machine and software improvements, etc.

Technological experience
You may have a master’s degree in engineering or a background as a physicist with a knowledge of materials technology etc. It will be considered an advantage if you already have some experience with industrial 3D printing, mechanical simulations, materials science, or project management. Experience with quality assurance is also a plus.

Preferably, you have some experience, but newly graduated applicants are also welcome to apply. Whatever your level of experience, we will ensure that you get a thorough introduction to give you a good start.

We are a strong professional and social group, where we are good at supporting each other. You will, however, be in charge of your own projects, so it is important that you are responsible, proactive, and can work efficiently and effectively. You should also be creative and prepared to pursue own ideas.

You will interact with many collaborators, including colleagues, the industry, and universities. They must feel safe leaving you in charge and it is therefore important that you are proactive, good at creating relationships and enjoy being in a role with a lot of interaction.

You will become part of Danish Technological Institute
Industrial 3D printing is a centre at the Danish Technological Institute with 25 highly specialised employees working with the application of 3D printing in industrial settings. We develop and produce advanced products in plastic and metal for fuel cells, satellites, sensors, high-end audio equipment, etc, but also to an increasing extent, gripping tools, nozzles, flow systems, etc., for a wide range of Danish and international industrial customers. The team’s tasks include a combination of long-term international development projects and short-term commercial tasks. Danish Technological Institute has been working with 3D printing since 1989 and are leaders in the field of development and production of 3D metal printing.

We constantly push the boundaries of what can be produced using 3D printing to make it more accessible to Danish businesses. We do this by, for example, participating in R&D projects through which we contribute to breaking down the industrial barriers that stand in the way of the acceptance of 3D printing technologies. Typical projects are supported by foundations/programmes such as EUDP, Horizon Europe, Grand Solution (Innovation Fund Denmark), etc. Our role in these is usually project management, development, presentation, testing and pilot production.
