Scored from the posting itself — how clearly the role is described, how much it says about pay and benefits, and how recently it was listed. Not a judgement of Freeform as an employer.

What you need

  • Hands on manufacturing or build experience from internships or engineering clubs such as FSAE, Baja SAE, solar car, rocket club, robotics club, or similar
  • Experience working with hand tools, machinery, or complex hardware assembly

Nice to have

  • Advanced degree (Master's, PhD) in mechanical, aerospace, or manufacturing engineering
  • Experience with CNC machining, including 3 or 5-axis programming and/or setup
  • Experience with metal additive manufacturing or precision post-processing
  • Exposure to fixturing, DFM, or process validation
  • Experience scaling early-stage R&D into production

What you get

  • Significant stock option packages
  • 100% employer-paid Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance (premium PPO and HMO options)
  • Life insurance
  • Traditional and Roth 401(k)
  • Relocation assistance provided
  • Paid vacation, sick leave, and company holidays

Worth weighing

  • Role requires full-time onsite presence (five days a week) with very limited exceptions
  • 3D printing experience is not required, which may indicate a focus on broader engineering skills rather than niche expertise
  • Fast-paced and ambiguous work environment may not suit everyone
