About the Role
Are you excited about digital design, robotic fabrication, and turning complex shapes into strong, high-performance structures?
At MX3D B.V., we are changing the way large metal structures are designed and built using advanced robotic 3D printing technology.
As a Fabrication Engineer, you’ll bridge creative computational design with real-world production. You’ll work at the intersection of Rhino-based modeling, robotic toolpath development, and hands-on fabrication, helping transform ambitious concepts into certified metal structures.
What You’ll Do
As a Fabrication Engineer at MX3D, you’ll support the full journey from digital model to printed metal structure.
- Translate architectural and engineering concepts into production-ready 3D models using Rhino
- Develop and optimize geometries for robotic metal 3D printing
- Prepare and refine digital files for WAAM production workflows
- Print preparation in the workshop, cutting the parts off the build plate, packing & shipping
- Support robotic toolpath generation in collaboration with the WAAM engineering team
- Assist in print simulations, slicing strategies, and geometric optimization
- Monitoring print and production
- Ensure dimensional accuracy and alignment with applicable standards
- Document workflows and contribute to continuous process improvement
- Share computational and fabrication insights with R&D to enhance MX3D’s technology stack
What You Bring
You combine strong computational skills with a hands-on fabrication mindset. You’re comfortable moving between digital environments and the production floor.
- Degree in Architecture, Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Design, or a related field
- Minimum 2 years of experience in computational design, digital fabrication, or a similar role
- Strong proficiency in Rhino (Grasshopper is a strong plus)
- Experience preparing files for 3D printing or robotic fabrication
- Understanding of geometry optimization and manufacturability
- Affinity with advanced manufacturing and robotic systems
- Detail-oriented, structured, and solution-driven mindset
- Strong communication skills and team spirit
- EU citizenship or a valid Dutch work permit
Nice to Have
- Experience with WAAM, DED, or large-scale additive manufacturing
- Familiarity with robotic programming or CAM software
- Experience working in architectural fabrication or structural design
- Workshop/Manufacturing experience is a plus
What We Offer
At MX3D, you’ll find more than a job; you’ll join a pioneering team shaping the future of large-scale metal 3D printing.
