Operations & Supply Chain Software Intern (Summer 2026)

Do you want to change how the world creates?

At Formlabs, we’re building the tools that make it possible for anyone to bring their ideas to life, from cutting-edge products to life-saving medical devices. Our 3D printing technology powers innovation at more than 50,000 industry leaders worldwide, including Apple, Google, Tesla, New Balance, and NASA. Together, we’re helping everyone design, prototype, and manufacture faster than ever before.

We’re a team of hands-on builders, engineers, and innovators reinventing how the world makes physical things. If you’re ready to shape the future of fabrication, come build it with us.

Your Impact
Behind every Formlabs printer is a global supply chain spanning component suppliers, Tier I assembly vendors, and material partners across Asia and beyond. Our Operations and Supply Chain team manages the data flows, forecasts, and critical decisions that keep manufacturing on track — but today, too much of that work relies on manual processes, disconnected spreadsheets, and raw vendor data that goes unmonitored.

That's where you come in. This is not a typical ops internship. You'll be embedded directly on our Supply Chain team, working with senior operations leadership to design, build, deploy, and maintain the internal software tools that power real business decisions. The tools you own will give operations teams live visibility into supply risk, production readiness, and cost drivers — translating raw, messy operational data into something people actually trust and act on.

The tools you build will be demoed frequently, refined based on real feedback, and architected to outlast your internship. We want production-quality software that survives and scales — not a proof of concept that collects dust.

Internship Term: Summer (June - August 21)
Commitment: Full-time
Location: Onsite in Somerville, MA
Application Material: A portfolio, GitHub profile, or examples of personal/class software projects are strongly encouraged.

The Job

• Own the full lifecycle of internal operational tools — from initial design and local development through testing, deployment, and ongoing iteration in a production environment
• Build and deploy data pipelines that ingest, clean, and normalize raw inputs from external vendor reports into structured, queryable formats that the business can rely on
• Develop and maintain web-based dashboards and applications that give non-technical operations teammates real-time visibility into supply chain health, production readiness, and operational risk
• Deploy and manage cloud infrastructure supporting these tools, including cloud functions, scheduled jobs, and data warehouse integrations — working with IT and Data Engineering stakeholders where appropriate
• Design for maintainability and handoff: write clean, documented, version-controlled code that a future engineer can pick up, extend, and debug without starting from scratch
• Demo your work early and often — at weekly check-ins with your manager and periodic reviews with the broader ops team. Feedback is a feature, not an interruption
• Identify opportunities to automate high-friction manual workflows across procurement, production planning, and supplier management

You

• Are pursuing a degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Engineering, Information Systems, or a related field
• Have built something real — a personal project, a class project, a deployed tool — and can walk us through how you built it, what broke, and how you fixed it
• Write clean Python or JavaScript (or both) and are comfortable working across the stack: data pipelines, backend logic, and lightweight front-end interfaces
• Have deployed software to a real environment — you understand the difference between something that works on your laptop and something that runs reliably in production
• Are comfortable with cloud platforms and infrastructure basics: spinning up services, managing environment configs, debugging deployment failures, and understanding how data moves between systems
• Use version control (Git) as a matter of habit — branching, committing, reviewing, and documenting your work
• Communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders and can translate ambiguous operational problems into scoped technical requirements
• Operate with autonomy — you don't need someone looking over your shoulder to ship, but you know when to ask for help
• Are energized by seeing your work actually used by real people

Bonus skills:

• Experience with Google Cloud Platform (BigQuery, Cloud Functions, Cloud Storage, Cloud Scheduler) or equivalent cloud services
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, containerization (Docker), or infrastructure-as-code tooling
• Prior internship or project experience in a DevOps, data engineering, or internal tools role
• Experience with BI and data visualization tools (Looker Studio, Tableau, Metabase, or similar)
• React or other modern front-end framework experience for building browser-based internal apps
• Exposure to ETL/ELT workflows, data pipeline orchestration, or workflow automation platforms
• Familiarity with supply chain, manufacturing, or operations domains — even academic or personal interest counts

Intern Benefits & Perks:

• Flexible Out of Office Plan — take time when you need it
• Salaried bi-weekly pay schedule
• Ample on-site parking & pre-tax commuter benefits
• Catered on-site lunches (3x per week), snacks, beverages & treats
• Cohort-based social and professional development experience for interns
• Many opt-in culture events across our diverse community
• And of course… unlimited 3D prints
