Role Description

Form Energy is hiring a Staff Quality Engineer - Electronics to drive quality into the PCBA manufacturing, battery management systems, thermal management units, and DC-DC converters we build in-house. This role reports into our Quality Engineering organization. As part of our Quality team, you'll partner closely with Design Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, and Test Engineering to build reliable, high-performing electronics as an integral part of our battery systems, from prototype through full production. This is an exciting opportunity to shape how we build quality into next-generation power electronics at a fast-moving company with breakthrough technology and an incredible mission!

What You’ll Do

Work closely with Design/Manufacturing Engineering to develop and document measurement, inspection, and test methods for PCBA, BMS, and DC-DC converter builds, in support of our Control Plans

Support change management and execution of process development experiments for new electronics builds and manufacturing process transfers

Regularly review PFMEAs and Control Plans for these product lines and support updates and revisions as designs and processes evolve

Lead/assist in the identification and resolution of manufacturing and field quality issues on electronic assemblies

Participate continuous improvement in yield, reliability, and cost with Design/Manufacturing Engineering, partnering with Supplier Quality Engineering on external supplier investigations while owning in-house quality execution

Support Statistical Process Control (SPC) activities on key electronics process parameters and use critical thinking to efficiently reduce variation during manufacturing

Lead non-conforming material control activities for electronic components and assemblies, including disposition and corrective action closure

What You’ll Bring

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a similar field

5-10 years of quality systems experience in a manufacturing environment, ideally with PCBA or electronics exposure

Solid foundation in electrical engineering fundamentals — circuit theory, power electronics basics, and the ability to read a schematic well enough to judge whether a test is actually checking the right thing

Experience with SPC, PFMEAs, and Control Plans

Understanding of board-level test methods and the tradeoffs between coverage, cost, and cycle time
