Global 3D Print Leader

We made history and now we work to transform the future - for our customers, our communities and our families. You'll see your work on the road every day, helping people move freely and pursue their dreams. At Ford, you can build more than vehicles. Come build what matters.

Shape the Future of Manufacturing with ATP

At Ford, we aren't just building vehicles - we are redefining how the world moves. Within the Advanced Industrial Technology and Platforms (ATP) organization, we are the architects of Ford's next industrial revolution.

Our mission is clear: we build and scale industrial platforms, technologies, and capabilities that unlock Ford Firsts to drive sustained competitive advantage in manufacturing. Driven by our vision to "build once, scale everywhere," we bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology and global physical deployment.

Our guiding mantra is simple yet relentless:
Scale what matters, win what's next.

If you are a high-tech builder, thinker, or innovator who thrives at the intersection of software, hardware, and massive scale, ATP is where you belong. Join us, and write the next chapter of industrial history.

In this position...

* A connected fleet of FMC3D printers operating at high utilization across our global plants and innovation hub.

* Measurable gains in part cost, cycle time, and material strength that outpace traditional methods.

* Additive manufacturing established as a profit center with clear revenue targets met.

* A world-class global team and the foundational roadmap for Ford-built 3D printers.

As the Global Print Leader, you will define and execute Ford's worldwide additive manufacturing strategy. You will oversee and benchmark technology across industries and bring the right solutions to Ford to achieve our cost, cycle-time, and material-strength requirements. Your scope spans the FMC3D printer fleet at every plant, the central 3D printing innovation hub, and the complete digital value chain-from generative design through print to robotic assembly.

You will partner with Ford Performance (Racing), FCSD, and Product Development to develop new technology and high-value applications, while collaborating with other functions inside the Advanced Industrial Technology (AIT) platform to bring complementary skills together. You will be accountable for achieving the team's KPIs, including a defined target for revenue generation, and for building the talent, printer operations, and connected software systems that power a globally distributed operation.

Looking ahead, you will lead the team's aspiration to design and assemble Ford's own 3D printers for Advanced Industrial Technology Platform (ATP) group.

This is a highly visible, demanding leadership role for a candidate who can bridge software, hardware, and deep materials science to deliver a step-change in manufacturing performance.

Ford is reinventing how the world's vehicles are built, and additive manufacturing sits at the center of that transformation. We are seeking a Global Print Leader to own our entire 3D printing enterprise-from materials science in the lab to a connected fleet of printers on every plant floor. This is a role for a technical executive who can turn a support capability into a strategic, revenue-generating engine, and who has the vision to lead Ford toward building its own proprietary printing technology

What you'll do...

* Benchmark additive technologies across aerospace, defense, and medical sectors, and bring the right ones to Ford to meet our cost, cycle-time, and material-strength requirements.

* Architect the complete digital thread-connecting generative design, slicing software, print execution, and robotic assembly into one seamless value chain.

Run a Global Operation

* Oversee the deployment, utilization, and performance of FMC3D printers across all Ford manufacturing plants, ensuring each plant can rapidly print the tools, fixtures, and parts it needs.

* Deploy a unified cloud and IoT software ecosystem to monitor, connect, and optimize the global printer network in real time.

Deliver Commercial Results

* Own the operational and financial KPIs for additive manufacturing, including a defined target for revenue generation.

* Partner with Ford Performance (Racing), FCSD, and Product Development to engineer high-value, low-volume, and complex additive solutions.

* Collaborate across the Advanced Industrial Technology (AIT) platform to integrate 3D printing with robotics, automation, and AI.

Build for the Future

* Lead the strategic initiative to design, engineer, and assemble Ford's own custom 3D printers in partnership with the Advanced Technology Platform (ATP) group.

* Recruit, mentor, and develop a world-class global team while establishing Ford's technical standards for additive manufacturing.

What you'll do...

* Benchmark additive technologies across aerospace, defense, and medical sectors, and bring the right ones to Ford to meet our cost, cycle-time, and material-strength requirements.

* Architect the complete digital…
