Job description

About Formlabs: To reinvent an industry, you have to build the best team. Join Formlabs if you want to help us build the tools that make it possible for anyone to bring their ideas to life. Starting 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. Your Impact: New products usually fail because they cost too much to build or can't ship on time, not because the prototype didn't work. We're looking for operations leaders who think like founders. This posting isn't tied to one opening. If your background fits, we'll talk about where your experience can have the most impact across our operations teams and match you to a role. Wherever you land, you'll run the work you own like a mini-CEO and build the manufacturing, supply chain, and fulfillment that let Formlabs products scale globally. We value bias for action, comfort with ambiguity, and deep ownership over outcomes. We are seeking results-focused leaders/entrepreneurs who can quickly pivot and take charge. What You’ll Do: Define Product Strategy & Vision: Act as the ultimate Product Owner, creating products and services that define the future of digital manufacturing by identifying unmet user needs and high-potential market gaps. Own Business Outcomes : Don't just manage projects—drive P&L results by identifying new market opportunities and scaling existing business units. Build & Lead : Create and lead multi-disciplinary teams of talented engineers, operators, and designers. Hire and mentor the next generation of Formlabs leaders. Take Decisive Action : Make crucial, high-stakes decisions that directly impact our core technology and business trajectory. Embrace the Ambiguity : Work at the intersection of complex disciplines (engineering, sales, manufacturing, marketing) and take full ownership to get the job done. About You: You are a tinkerer and/or an ex-co-founder who thrives on complexity and doesn't wait for permission. You get results. Proven 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. The 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. Bonus Skills: Entrepreneurial experience like founding your own business. MBA or experience in a consulting role Familiarity with manufacturing, regulatory, or product standards and compliance in industries like healthcare, pharma, or life sciences. Experience with 3D printing technologies and materials. Familiarity with Tableau or SQL. Our Benefits & Perks: Robust equity program to build future wealth through RSUs Comprehensive healthcare coverage (Medical, Dental, Vision) Low-cost fund options in our 401K and access to advisors Generous paid Parental Leave (up to 16 weeks) Tenure-based paid Sabbatical Leave (up to 6 weeks) Flexible Out of Office Plan – Take time when you need it Ample on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits Healthy on-site lunches, snacks, beverages, & treats Regularly sponsored professional development opportunities Many opt-in culture events across our diverse community And of course… unlimited 3D prints We are an equal opportunity employer and value diversity at our company. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status. Even if you don't check every box, but see yourself contributing, please apply. Help us build an inclusive community that will change the face of 3D printing. Compensation Equity is a big part of the compensation package at Formlabs - every employee receives equity because everyone contributes to building the company. We have a lot of confidence in the products we’re building and the impact we’re making, and you should too. Base pay is the other part of our compensation package, and it is carefully determined based on your skills, experience, and expected impact. Equity and base pay combine to make up your total compensation package at Formlabs. The annual base pay range for this role is: $120,000 — $250,000 USD
