Open Projects for Students and Volunteers in Glass 3D Printing

Salary Unpaid

We are looking for curious students to do thesis or volunteers for open projects in glass 3D printing.

Who are we?

We are an additive manufacturing startup transforming glass applications through the Direct Glass Laser Deposition (DGLD®) technique. Our technology features a novel, laser-based glass 3D printer that utilizes thin glass filaments as feedstock. Our vision is to expand the potential applications of glass 3D printing with a strong focus on sustainability.

Why is this interesting?

Traditionally, Glass fabrication has always been expensive, time-consuming, and mainly suited for standardized mass productions.

From life sciences to optics and photonics, there is an increasing need for customizable, fast, affordable, and sustainable glass production—especially in sectors focused on innovation, prototyping, and rapid customization.

Our vision is to transform how the world innovates by enabling glass 3D printing. We envision a world where glass and laser-based manufacturing enable meaningful breakthroughs that improve lives, fuel discovery, and create a better future for all.

What we offer

  • Close collaboration with the founding team in central Stockholm;
  • Flexible working schedule;
  • Access to a state-of-the-art AM lab in central Stockholm;
  • Chance to join us after finishing the project.

Some examples of project challenges

  • Upgrading software routines for slicing and 3D printing;
  • Improving printing process, including speed, stability and precision;
  • Develop printing process to print optics, microfluidics or similar purposes;
  • Testing new printing materials and parameters;
  • Your relevant idea!

Required qualifications

  • Engineering background;
  • Passion for engineering;
  • Excellent execution, results-oriented;
  • Excellent English skills, written and spoken.

Skills that will make you stand out

  • Technical or engineering degree;
  • 3D printing;
  • Programming;
  • Computer vision and machine learning;
  • CAD;
  • 3D scanning;
  • Algorithm engineering;
  • High level AI user.

Please make your application in English.

Neither CV nor CL are required, BUT you are more than welcome to add one line in the application to describe your dream project.

Your application will be evaluated based on your LinkedIn profile.  It should have recommendations, certificates, endorsed skills and verified experience.

Working at
Nobula3D AB

3D printing is shaping the future of manufacturing. In 2020 about 2 million 3D printers were sold. They print plastics, metals, even ceramics, but none could print glass. However, the demand of complex glass products grows continuously in medical, optics, aerospace, solid state battery, art, jewelry, and other markets. Nobula® glass 3D printer allows complex 3D structures to be produced in glass. With our Direct Glass Laser Deposition (DGLD®) technology, 3D printing glass is as easy as printing plastic.
