Divergent 3D is seeking an Additive Manufacturing Equipment Engineer II to support the transition of next-generation Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) production equipment from development into high-volume manufacturing. This is a hands-on technical role focused on ensuring production equipment is stable, reliable, scalable, and capable of delivering world-class safety, quality, delivery, and cost performance. In this role, you will take technical responsibility for assigned production equipment after engineering qualification, working at the intersection of equipment engineering, manufacturing, quality, reliability, and operations. You will apply independent judgment to solve complex problems and improve standard work with input from your manager and senior engineers. Key responsibilities include: - Supporting the transition of newly developed production equipment from qualification into sustained manufacturing - Driving improvements in equipment reliability, throughput, yield, and overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) on assigned machines - Troubleshooting equipment problems at the machine level and transforming solutions into engineering standards deployed across the entire fleet - Working alongside senior equipment engineers to stabilize new machines and build standards that carry the fleet as it scales - Collaborating across manufacturing, quality, and operations teams to ensure equipment performance meets production demands This role requires strong troubleshooting skills, independent technical judgment, and the drive to grow into broader fleet-level ownership. As Divergent's manufacturing footprint expands across multiple factories, you will help solve equipment problems and contribute to standardized solutions across the organization. The ideal candidate has experience with advanced manufacturing equipment, problem-solving in production environments, and the ability to work effectively with cross-functional teams.
