Mechanical Design Engineer II, Structures

The Structures Engineering team at Form is responsible for designing the structure, enclosure, and sealing systems that supports and integrates all parts of our innovative utility-scale multi-day energy storage system. We strive to deliver designs that are optimized for performance, quality, reliability, and cost for high-volume manufacturing at Form Factory.

We're seeking a Mechanical Design Engineer II to join our team and contribute to the scaling of our multi-day energy storage system. You'll bring components and assemblies from concept to into mass production, with an emphasis on FEA-driven structural design, weatherproofing, and manufacturability of metal enclosures. You will work cross-functionally with designers and test engineers, interrogating the potential design space and selecting appropriate test methods to validate designs. As a problem solver, you will apply engineering rigor to develop sheet metal assemblies, weldments, and sealing systems to balance structural optimization with design for manufacturability, weight reduction, and cost-down.

This is an exciting opportunity to be part of scaling our multi-day energy storage system at Form and contributing to a sustainable future. If this sounds like the perfect opportunity for you, apply now!
