About American Turbines
The power grid was built for a world that no longer exists. Centralized generation, hundred-mile transmission lines, decade-long permitting cycles. Meanwhile, demand is exploding: AI data centers, industrial electrification, remote operations that need megawatts yesterday and can't wait for utilities to catch up.
American Turbines is designing small modular gas turbines, purpose-built for distributed power generation. Machines designed from a blank sheet to be manufactured at scale, clustered in arrays, and dispatched in minutes. Hundreds of units operating in parallel, dynamically matching load like a compute cluster matches demand.
We are a seed-stage company backed by the investors behind SpaceX, Boom Supersonic, and Hadrian.
About the Role
The Additive Manufacturing Engineer at American Turbines will own our EOS M 290 DMLS printer and every part that comes off of it. Print parameters, powder management, build planning, post-processing workflow. You are the person who turns CAD into metal.
You will develop and qualify print parameters primarily for IN718 & HastX. You will print the compressor wheels, turbine wheels, combustor, and structural casings that make up our turbines. You will own the entire LPBF workflow from powder receipt through HIP, heat treatment, and NDI.
This is not a research role. We have a printer, we have powder, and we need parts on the test stand. You will be printing hardware within your first month. You will also interface directly with external service bureaus for parts that exceed our in-house build volume or require alternative alloys.
What We're Looking For
- Hands-on experience operating an EOS M 290 or equivalent LPBF system (SLM 280, Renishaw AM400, Trumpf TruPrint) in a production or prototype environment.
- Demonstrated experience with IN718 print parameter development: scan strategies, support removal, density optimization.
- Knowledge of post-processing workflow: stress relief, wire EDM removal, HIP, heat treatment, CNC finishing.
- Experience with NDI methods for AM parts: X-ray CT, fluorescent penetrant inspection, CMM dimensional verification.
- Understanding of powder metallurgy: particle size distribution, recycling limits, cross-contamination
prevention, safe handling of reactive alloys.
- Ability to design support structures and orient parts for optimal build quality and minimal post-processing.
Bonus Points
- Experience printing Hastelloy X or other high-temperature nickel superalloys.
- Familiarity with EOS systems or similar large-format metal AM systems.
- Prior work in aerospace or gas turbine component manufacturing.
- Materials testing experience: tensile, creep-rupture, fatigue at elevated temperatures.
Compensation
$115,000 - $145,000 base.
