Join Formlabs if you want to help us build the tools that make it possible for anyone to bring their ideas to life. \nStarting a company is the ultimate test of product-market fit, execution, and resilient leadership. If you're an ex-co-founder, seasoned tinkerer, or Product Leader at an early-stage startup looking for the ultimate platform to apply your experiences, Formlabs offers the infrastructure to build high-impact products without the bureaucratic drag of a large enterprise.\nYour Impact: \nYour mandate is to act as a mini-CEO: rapidly identify, develop, and scale new product lines and ventures within Formlabs. We value bias for action, comfort with ambiguity, and deep ownership over outcomes. \nWe are seeking results-focused leaders/entrepreneurs who can quickly pivot and take charge. Your contribution will span the product cycle, from deep R&D to global-scale shipping across hardware, software, materials science, and business functions.\nWhat You’ll Do:\nDefine Supply Chain Strategy & Vision: Act as the ultimate Supply Chain Owner, creating products and services that define the future of digital manufacturing by identifying cutting edge technologies and high-potential operational gaps.\nOwn Business Outcomes: Don't just manage projects-drive P&L results by identifying new opportunities and scaling existing infrastructure.\nBuild & Lead: Create and lead multi-disciplinary teams of talented engineers and operators.

You get results.\nProven Entrepreneurial Experience: You have previously built a business or significant venture (technology startup experience is ideal), demonstrating a high tolerance for risk and a bias for action.Comfort with Breadth: You have direct experience creating multi-disciplinary technology products and understand the full lifecycle from ideation to scale.Ownership & Hustle: You possess the \"get it done\" mindset-the hustle to do whatever it takes, whether it’s pitching a customer, setting up a supply chain, or debugging a prototype.Adaptive Leadership: You excel at both hiring and leading teams and are energized by a constantly changing, high-standard environment.\nThe standard is high, and the work is hard. Success here means you will be fundamentally changing digital manufacturing for designers, engineers, researchers, and artists everywhere.\nBonus Skills: \nRobotics, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science Degree or related\nEntrepreneurial experience like founding your own business.\nMBA or experience in a consulting role\nFamiliarity with manufacturing, supply chain, or product standards and compliance in industries like healthcare, pharma, or life sciences.\nExperience with 3D printing technologies and materials.\nOur Benefits & Perks:\nRobust equity program to build future wealth through RSUs\nComprehensive healthcare coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision)\nLow-cost fund options in our 401K and access to advisors \nGenerous paid Parental Leave (up to 16 weeks)\nTenure-based paid Sabbatical Leave (up to 6 weeks)\nFlexible Out of Office Plan - Take time when you need it\nAmple on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits\nHealthy on-site lunches, snacks, beverages, & treats\nRegularly sponsored professional development opportunities\nMany opt-in culture events across our diverse community\nAnd of course… unlimited 3D prints\nWe are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company.
