Embedded System Engineer for Glass 3D Printing

Join Nobula®: Pioneering the Future of Glass 3D Printing

Who are we?

Nobula® is an innovative additive manufacturing startup revolutionizing glass applications through our proprietary Direct Glass Laser Deposition (DGLD®) technique. Our cutting-edge technology features a laser-based glass 3D printer that uses thin glass filaments as feedstock. With a strong focus on sustainability, our vision is to expand the potential applications of glass 3D printing.

Why is this interesting?

Traditionally, glass fabrication has been expensive, time-consuming, and primarily suited for standardized mass production. However, there is a growing demand for customizable, fast, affordable, and sustainable glass production across various sectors, from life sciences to optics and photonics. Our goal is to enable glass foundries to be placed anywhere, from office desks and labs to production factories.

What have we accomplished?

We have successfully launched pilot projects with both top-tier industial and academical partners. Currently, we are engaged in over 20 active projects. We have also raised more than 55 million SEK in investments from prestigious organizations, including the European Innovation Council (EIC), VCs, business angels, KTH Holding, and the Sting incubator. Our team of 7 operates from an office and lab in central Stockholm, and we are now entering the next phase of scaling.
