Laboratory Technician

NanoCore Technologies is an early stage technology company developing a method of metal additive manufacturing an order of magnitude less complicated and less expensive than existing printers. Today, popular metal 3D printers cost half a million dollars or more and use complicated high-powered lasers and controlled atmospheres. NanoCore is taking an entirely different approach that utilizes proprietary materials science and machine design to make metal 3D printing easier, simpler and less expensive than previously imaginable. To put it simply, we believe our technology will fundamentally change how metal parts are made.

We are a dedicated team of engineers and scientists passionate about manufacturing innovation. We see technical challenges as opportunities, and through focus and teamwork we find creative solutions. Apply only if you are excited about getting your hands dirty. NanoCore is located in San Francisco, CA and is walking distance to BART & Caltrain and offers competitive salaries, benefits and stock options.

In the role of laboratory technician, you will work primarily with the internal NanoCore
development teams to optimize NanoCore printing materials formulations and products for
customer applications. You will aid in the development of the materials, processes and
workflow necessary to print high-precision metal parts for a variety of industries. You will be
responsible for the materials scale-up, quality controls, and evaluation of the 3D printed parts
within a materials development team.
• Contribute to the development and optimization of the NanoCore material formulation for
metal additive manufacturing equipment
• Design and perform experiments to improve material formulations to address
cost/quality/performance/supply issues
• Document materials production processes, quality controls, and printing processes for
internal and external stakeholders
• Work with and present reports and results to multi-disciplinary teams consisting of scientists
and mechanical, electrical, and software engineers

• 2 years of experience in a chemical research environment.
• Experience using general laboratory practices and analytical techniques
• Basic working knowledge of chemistry or chemical engineering and general proficiency in data
management
• Be comfortable using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and working in a
chemical manufacturing environment
• BS in materials science, chemistry, chemical engineering, or related field of science or
engineering.
