Get Access To All JobsAbout Formlabs:
A 3D printer is one of the most demanding machines you can build.
Lasers, optics, precision motion, thermals, airflow, materials handling, chemistry, sensing, controls, and software all have to work at micron-scale precision, for thousands of layers, with almost no tolerance for error. Making that work reliably is an extraordinary engineering problem.
That's what we do.
At Formlabs, we're building 3D printers that are changing the way things get made. We have the smartest minds across every engineering discipline, and the technology they're building is deployed at more than 50,000 industry leaders worldwide, including Apple, Google, Tesla, New Balance, and NASA.
Your Impact:
Our Manufacturing team makes 3D printing materials at scale, and Materials is one of the fastest-growing and most strategically important parts of our product portfolio. Our resins, the photopolymers that run on every Formlabs SLA printer, are formulated by our R&D team and produced in our own manufacturing facility.
We're looking for a technically strong Supply Chain Engineer to own the raw-material supply chain that feeds our resin factory. You'll manage a broad base of chemical suppliers for monomers, oligomers, photoinitiators, pigments, and additives, and you'll work hand in hand with the factory to make sure the right materials arrive on time, at the right quality, and at the right cost. Because small changes in a raw material can change how a resin prints, this role requires real technical depth: you'll need to understand the chemistry well enough to qualify suppliers, investigate quality issues, and partner with R&D on new formulations.
This is a role for an engineer who has worked close to production and wants ownership over the inputs that make it run.
The Job:
Raw-Material Supplier Management
- Own relationships with a broad base of chemical raw-material suppliers, running quarterly business reviews with scorecards for quality, delivery, cost, and responsiveness.
- Manage volume allocation across dual- and multi-sourced inputs to balance cost, capacity, and risk.
- Lead supplier qualification end-to-end, including technical assessments, site audits, sample evaluation with R&D and Quality, and maintenance of the Approved Supplier List.
- Investigate raw-material quality issues to root cause, working with suppliers, Quality, and the factory on lot-to-lot variability, specifications, certificates of analysis, and corrective actions.
Factory Partnership
- Act as the supply chain point of contact for the resin manufacturing facility, aligning raw-material supply with production plans, batch schedules, and inventory targets.
- Spend time on the factory floor to understand how incoming materials are received, stored, handled, and consumed, and use that knowledge to improve supply decisions.
- Partner with Planning and Manufacturing to set safety stock levels, manage shelf-life and storage constraints, and prevent line-down events.
Technical Sourcing & Alternate Materials
- Find and qualify new raw materials that enable R&D to develop new resin properties and products.
- Build alternate-source strategies for critical inputs, especially single-source chemicals.
- Manage the controlled ramp of qualified alternate materials into regular production, coordinating R&D, Manufacturing, Quality, and Supply Chain to ensure smooth transitions without changing product performance.
- Support NPI by sourcing new inputs, setting cost targets, and ensuring supply readiness ahead of launch.
Cost & Risk
- Build and maintain dashboards tracking current and forward-looking raw-material and resin COGS.
- Develop should-cost models grounded in chemistry and process economics to guide negotiations and cost reduction.
- Manage pricebooks and execute price change workflows.
- Maintain a live supply risk tracker covering single-source exposure, regulatory changes, supplier health, and market conditions for key chemical inputs, and lead mitigation planning.
Continuous Improvement
- Lead process improvement projects across the resin supply chain, from scoping through implementation.
- Turn manual, recurring work into scalable tools and processes.
You:
- Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, Materials Science, or a closely related field.
- 5+ years of experience in chemical, specialty materials, polymer, coatings, adhesives, or consumer goods manufacturing, in roles such as supplier quality, process engineering, plant operations, or raw-material sourcing.
- Direct experience working with chemical raw-material suppliers, including qualification, specifications, and quality investigations.
- Hands-on experience in or alongside a manufacturing plant, and a solid understanding of how raw-material variability affects production.
- Strong analytical skills: advanced Excel/Sheets required; SQL, Python, or Tableau a plus.
- Comfortable owning recurring processes end-to-end and leading cross-functional projects with a high degree of autonomy.
- Clear communicator with supplier technical teams, factory staff, R&D, and leadership.
Bonus Points
- Experience with photopolymers, UV-curable chemistry, or resin formulation.
- Familiarity with chemical regulatory and compliance requirements such as REACH, TSCA, GHS, and SDS management.
- Experience with hazardous materials handling, storage, or transport.
- ERP experience (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, Oracle).
- Graduate degree in engineering or chemistry.
Our Benefits & Perks:
- Unlimited 3D printing with any Formlabs material on any Formlabs printer
- An equity program that will let you build wealth through RSUs
- Healthcare coverage (medical, dental, vision) that includes a totally free employee-only plan, effective starting on your first day on the job
- 401K matching with no vesting or tenure requirement
- Generous parental leave (fully paid up to 16 weeks)
- Flexible time off so you can take time when you need it
- Six-week fully paid sabbatical after hitting tenure milestones (with the option to take an additional six weeks after that)
- Free on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits
- Free on-site lunch, snacks, beverages, treats, beer kegs, and employee-favorite local coffee and espresso
- Self-driven professional development opportunities like conferences, trade shows, and hackathons
- One-of-a-kind activities and events like monthly socials, the annual weekend summer camp, a can't-miss company hackathon, and lots of other social opportunities
You don't need to check every box to apply for a role. If you love working with hardware, spending time with smart people, solving hard problems, and winning, we want to hear from you.
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.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as a Supply Chain Engineer
Align your credentials with EB-2 requirements
EB-2 covers supply chain roles requiring an advanced degree or a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive experience. Document promotions, expanded scope, and cross-functional leadership now, before your employer opens a PERM case, so the record matches the EB-2 petition narrative.
Verify your SOC code before PERM recruitment begins
Your employer must advertise the exact prevailing-wage level tied to your O*NET occupation code. Confirm whether your role maps to Industrial Engineer, Logistics Engineer, or a related SOC before recruitment launches, because a mismatch can invalidate the entire PERM recruitment test.
Search Migrate Mate for verified green card sponsors
Target employers with a documented history of filing I-140 petitions for supply chain roles. Migrate Mate lists employers verified for employment-based green card sponsorship, so you can focus your applications on companies already familiar with PERM requirements rather than educating employers from scratch.
Request a prevailing wage determination review early
Your employer submits a prevailing wage request to OFLC before filing the PERM application. Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up Level II and Level III wage rates for your SOC code and metro area so your offer letter reflects a defensible wage before DOL reviews the case.
Secure your priority date and protect it at job changes
Your priority date is established when your employer files the PERM application. If you change employers after your I-485 has been pending 180 days or more, AC21 portability lets you port to a same or similar occupation. Confirm the new role's SOC code overlaps with your original petition before accepting the offer.
Prepare for the recruitment test documentation burden
PERM requires your employer to run a mandatory recruitment test, advertise through specific channels, and document that no qualified U.S. workers applied. Brief your HR team on the 30-day advertising window, the mandatory job order with the State Workforce Agency, and the record-retention requirements before the process starts.
Green Card Supply Chain Engineer: Frequently Asked Questions
Which green card category fits a Supply Chain Engineer role?
Most Supply Chain Engineer positions qualify under EB-2, which requires an advanced degree or a bachelor's degree plus five years of progressive experience in the field. Roles requiring only a bachelor's degree with standard experience may fall under EB-3 professional. Your employer's immigration counsel determines the category when requesting the prevailing wage determination from OFLC.
How is green card sponsorship different from H-1B sponsorship for this role?
Green card sponsorship leads to lawful permanent residence, not a temporary status. The process starts with PERM labor certification filed with the Department of Labor, followed by an I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS, and then adjustment of status or consular processing. There is no annual lottery, but EB-2 and EB-3 both carry per-country numerical limits, meaning nationals of high-demand countries can face significant priority-date backlogs before they can file for the final green card stage.
How do I find employers willing to sponsor a green card for supply chain roles?
Migrate Mate lists employers with verified employment-based green card sponsorship history, so you can target companies that have already navigated PERM, I-140 filings, and the full EB-2 or EB-3 process for similar roles. Focusing on established sponsors shortens the internal approval cycle compared to approaching employers who have never run a PERM case.
What does the PERM recruitment test mean for my job search timeline?
PERM requires your employer to complete a mandatory recruitment test, including advertising the position and documenting that no minimally qualified U.S. workers applied. This process typically adds several months before the PERM application can be filed with the Department of Labor. You should factor this into your offer negotiation and start-date planning, particularly if you're transitioning from a time-limited work status.
Can I change employers after my green card case is filed?
Once your I-485 adjustment of status application has been pending for 180 days or more, AC21 job portability allows you to move to a new employer in the same or a similar occupation without losing your place in the green card queue. If you change employers before that threshold, you generally need to restart the PERM process, though a previously approved I-140 may allow you to retain your original priority date with a new employer's petition.
