3D Printing Technician Intern

Rev1 Technologies is a 3D scanning and 3D printing technology company in Auburn Hills, MI. We sell and support professional 3D printers for manufacturers across the country. We are looking for a 3D Printing Technician Intern who genuinely lives this hobby: someone who runs their own printers, tunes their own firmware, and can tell why a print failed before the first layer finishes.

This is a part-time temporary internship running September through December with a real possibility of a permanent role after that. You will work directly with the owner. The role is customer facing and includes travel to customer sites, with travel expenses paid.

What you’ll do:

• Service, repair, and maintain customer and in-house 3D printers
• Operate our printers day to day: calibration, test prints, demo parts
• Tune firmware and print quality (Klipper: input shaper, pressure advance, first-layer dialing)
• Build and maintain slicer profiles across nozzle sizes and materials (PLA, PETG, ABS/ASA, nylon, filled filaments)
• Support customers in person and remotely: troubleshooting, training, materials guidance
• Travel to customer sites for installs and service, expenses paid
• Use CAD (Fusion 360, SolidWorks, or Onshape) for fixtures, mods, and customer parts

What we’re looking for:

• A genuine enthusiast: you own and run printers, have modified or upgraded them, and can talk failure modes from experience
• Klipper familiarity and slicer fluency; you understand what nozzle diameter, line width, and temperatures actually do
• Materials knowledge: what to print in what, how to dry it, when to switch
• Solid CAD skills, hobbyist or pro
• Clear, friendly communication with customers
• Driver’s license and willingness to travel (expenses paid)
• Any major welcome. This is about what you can do, not what class you took.

To apply: in your application, tell us about your own printer setup: what you run, what you have modified or tuned, and one failed print you diagnosed and fixed. Applications without this will not move forward.

What you’ll get:

• Hands-on work with professional large-format and production 3D printers
• Real service, operations, and customer experience
• 10–18 flexible hours per week, scheduled around your classes
• A shot at a permanent role after the internship
