I know what you're thinking. Perhaps the Orthodontics industry isn't what you were looking for. If I am being honest, that's what I initially thought. But the more I learned, the more I started to see the exciting and massive opportunity. Imagine an industry that hasn't changed in 50 years. This space is old, slow, and ripe for a team of creative and passionate people to do something BIG. We have a very real and rare opportunity to truly build a company from the ground up and disrupt a $2B industry. There aren't many startups in Boston that can honestly say that.
As a Manufacturing Technician at LightForce Orthodontics, you will be an active member of a fast-growing start-up at the forefront of digital manufacturing. You will be responsible for maintaining the daily manufacturing operations of our orthodontic appliance production line. You will work closely with hardware engineers, dental planners, and management to ensure that the right products get to the right people on time, all while meeting the highest quality standards. This position will report to the Operations Manager.
