Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Responsible for the setup, reset, and completion of process runs and the processing of finished goods. Duties include preparing materials and fixtures while following strict procedures and performing routine maintenance.
Requires 1-2 years of manufacturing experience and a college diploma in mechanical technology, though both are considered assets. Candidates must be proficient with workshop tools, able to perform physical labor, and pass a background check.
Process Operator
Who We Are
Equispheres is a Canadian materials science innovator headquartered in Ottawa’s advanced technology hub. Privately held and engineering‑driven, we develop next‑generation metal powders that unlock higher performance, reliability, and scalability in additive manufacturing (AM). Our mission is to empower our partners with materials that enable the industrial AM revolution and elevate Canada’s role in the global AM ecosystem.
Powered by a multidisciplinary team of researchers, metallurgists, and engineers, Equispheres has pioneers proprietary powder manufacturing technologies that produce exceptionally uniform, free‑flowing, metal powders (aluminum, copper, etc.). These engineered powders deliver superior process efficiency, mechanical properties, and repeatability—critical advantages for aerospace, defense, automotive, and high‑value industrial applications.
From lightweight structural components to high‑reliability parts for mission‑critical systems, our superior materials are designed to accelerate the adoption of additive manufacturing across sectors where strength, precision, and safety are non‑negotiable. As a proudly Canadian technology company, Equispheres is committed to supporting the North American defense industrial base, advancing domestic manufacturing capability, and providing trusted materials for applications that protect people and secure the future.

High-performance metal powders for additive manufacturing in automotive, aerospace & defense. What the future is made of
What the Future is Made of At Equispheres, we believe that additive manufacturing has the potential to truly transform the way we think about the things we use every day. From enabling a more robust and sustainable manufacturing supply chain to breakthrough designs in vehicles, spacecraft, and everyday items, additive manufacturing is a key factor in achieving a more sustainable and positive future. Equispheres knows that the materials we build with are a critical part of this future. From cost-to-manufacture through to the capabilities and reliability of the final parts, materials play an out-sized role in deciding how far additive manufacturing can really go. That’s why at Equispheres we focus on developing technologies and products specific for additive manufacturing materials. Take our Aluminum powders designed for Laser-Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF). Our breakthrough technology for powder production results in material feedstock for metal AM that reduces waste, improves throughput, and is safer to handle than other Aluminum powders. These achievements are helping manufacturers accelerate their adoption of AM. By partnering with world leaders in machine tool manufacturing, mobility, aerospace, and other key industries, Equispheres ensures a tight alignment between the needs of the global manufacturing industry and the materials technologies we offer, enabling faster adoption of Additive Manufacturing around the world.
