Career | FIT Additive Manufacturing Group

Careers at FIT AG

A company's success is not based on machinery, it is based on people, working together with passion and skill to impress customers. OK, but why in Lupburg? The FIT Additive Manufacturing Group was founded by Carl Fruth in his garage in 1995, which stood and still stands in Lupburg. Since then, we have developed into one of the leading companies for additive manufacturing at the brand new AM Campus, constructed in 2017. In 2018, we opened our Boarding House, an optional home for employees who have to travel long distances. And, incidentally, Lupburg is located directly on the motorway, halfway between Nuremberg and Regensburg, two of the most beautiful cities in Bavaria. As you can see, there are heaps of good reasons to come to Lupburg. Want to help shape the future? Then join us! We offer fantastic career opportunities in a rapidly growing company in an emerging industry – for specialists, young professionals, apprentices and students. We have jobs that you won't find anywhere else. Challenging, extraordinary, innovative.

WHAT EMPLOYEES THINK

Norbert Neumayer
Technical Employee

I supervise the Laser Melting processes in our metal AM area. I am constantly amazed that industrial 3D printing lets you watch simple metal powder be transformed into innovative metal parts. From the very first time that I saw a laser melting system at work, a spark was lit.

Anton Werner
Head of Toolmaking

What I find interesting about my work is that every day we manufacture new parts that often have very special requirements. In injection molding we are able to quickly produce finished parts and it is really satisfying to be able to complete a difficult order on time. You go home feeling that you have really made a difference. A particular highlight is the good cooperation and cohesion between the colleagues that you will struggle to find anywhere else.

Petra Nagy
Data Processor PAM FIT Prototyping

Data processing is an important interface with the customer with a great deal of responsibility for the desired quality of the component. I am always pleased when I have mastered a difficult task to my satisfaction. This lets us make the best possible use of our manufacturing capacities. I particularly appreciate the good, collegial work environment. This makes it really fun and easy to get involved.

Jürgen Tauchnitz
Head of the Elastomer FIT Prototyping division

The thing that makes elastomer manufacturing so special is that there is no such thing as a standard case, because every mixture is different and is aligned to the product’s intended purpose. This naturally means that we have very close contact with our customers. After all, rubber is not exactly a straightforward natural product and it is a nice feeling when a customer is completely satisfied with the products.

Matthias Kern
Project Manager Medical Technology

In the medical technology sector in particular we are now able to manufacture additive products that significantly improve a patient’s quality of life. Whether this is ensuring the quick availability of bone implants to considerably reduce painful waiting times before surgery or allowing patients with sports prostheses to once again actively participate in social life without restrictions.

We provide training

Apprentices are important to us! We are pioneers in the young sector of 3D printing but we are counting on them to continue to develop this position! At FIT they will find out about the special features of this innovative technology from the ground up and can grow directly into their dream jobs – whether technical, commercial, or IT. The FIT Additive Manufacturing Group provides well-grounded training with outstanding prospects and a very good retention rate. 50 talented young people are currently making the most of this opportunity.

Practical experience for students

All theory is abstract?! Then round-out your university knowledge with a traineeship at a technology leader in additive manufacturing. Nowhere else will you find so much concentrated and diversified know-how in additive technologies. Whether a preliminary placement or practical semester during your studies: become a productive member of a tight-knit team. We always welcome a breath of fresh air and look forward to hearing your new ideas. And you might even want to join us after you have finished your studies!
