Applications Engineer

What you'll do: Become an expert of Lumafield's scanners across all product lines, including planning and running scans on a wide range of parts, materials, and inspection objectives. Own post-sale technical execution for customer accounts. Build automated inspection solutions and workloads for customers, including recipe development and tuning for inline and line-adjacent manufacturing deployments. Use agentic coding tools to build custom tooling, scripts, and integrations that solve specific customer problems. Design and iterate on fixturing to get repeatable, production-viable scans. Run evaluation scans and technical demonstrations that help customers understand what CT can do with their parts. Work cross-functionally with Customer Success, Solution Architects, Product Management, and Engineering to resolve technical issues and turn recurring customer needs into product improvements. Document workflows, recipes, and training so customers can build on the work independently. About you: A degree in Mechanical, Industrial, Manufacturing, Metallurgical, Plastics, or a related engineering field. 2+ years of professional experience in an engineering, applications, technical support, technical sales, or production role. Excellent written and verbal communication skills, and genuine comfort working directly with customers — including presenting technical results and managing expectations on scope. Comfortable using agentic coding tools (Claude Code, Cursor, or similar) to build tools and automations. You don't need to be a software engineer, but you should be someone who reaches for automation rather than doing it by hand. Hands-on mechanical aptitude — comfortable with fixturing, tolerances, and how parts are actually made. Energized by breadth. This role spans hardware operation, software, automation, and customer relationships, and no two weeks look the same. Willingness to travel to customer sites, approximately 30%. Comfortable in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities.

Bonus points for: Hands-on experience with industrial CT, CMM, or other dimensional metrology or NDT workflows. Familiarity with manufacturing processes such as machining, casting, injection molding, additive manufacturing, stamping, or assembly. Experience with inline or automated inspection systems, or with integrating equipment into a production line. Familiarity with GD&T, first-article inspection (FAI), or continuous improvement methodologies such as Lean, Six Sigma, or SPC. Experience with CAD tools such as Onshape or SolidWorks. Domain experience in medical devices, aerospace and defense, automotive, electronics, or batteries. \n Lumafield offers both competitive cash and equity
