- Complete post-print preparation, filling, curing, finishing and quality checks.
- Troubleshoot design or printing issues in collaboration with audiologists.
- Maintain printers, lab equipment, supplies, inventory, records and an organized, compliant workspace.

- Clear, professional communication and respect for confidentiality.
- Comfort working with children and families in a clinical setting is preferred.
- Experience with 3D printing, digital design, laboratory or technical work or healthcare is a plus—not a requirement.
You’ll Thrive in This Role If You Are
