About the Role
As an Applications Engineer at Lumafield, you will own technical delivery for customers, becoming an expert in Lumafield's scanners and software to help them achieve business results. You will build automated inspection workflows for inline or line-adjacent deployments, design and tune scan recipes, develop custom tools using agentic coding, design fixtures, and translate manufacturing problems into repeatable automated solutions. This is a broad, hands-on role involving cross-functional collaboration and regular customer interaction.
Responsibilities
- 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.
Requirements
- 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.
- Hands-on mechanical aptitude — comfortable with fixturing, tolerances, and how parts are actually made.
- Energized by breadth, spanning hardware operation, software, automation, and customer relationships.
- Willingness to travel to customer sites, approximately 30%.
- Comfortable in a fast-paced environment with shifting priorities.
