Senior Manufacturing Engineer

We are seeking a Senior Manufacturing Engineer to lead the end-to-end development, optimization, and scaling of manufacturing processes for our modular thermal battery storage system. This role is central to transforming prototypes into reliable, cost-efficient products manufactured at scale through outsourced partners.

Requirements

• Develop, optimize, and validate the assembly process for the modular thermal battery system from prototype through scaled production.
• Build virtual process models using value stream mapping, process flow software, and simulation tools to evaluate alternative configurations and process scenarios.
• Lead the development of standardized, data-driven production processes using IoT, SPC, and modern manufacturing analytics tools.
• Collaborate closely with design engineering, supplier quality, sourcing, and manufacturing partners to transition designs into robust, scalable production.
• Own Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA) guidance, influencing mechanical and thermal subsystem design to enhance quality, cost, and throughput.
• Drive iterative learning from field performance back into product and manufacturing process improvements.
• Define, procure, and implement tooling, jigs, fixtures, test equipment, and process automation required for reliable, high-yield assembly.
• Develop and maintain build documentation, assembly instructions, PFMEAs, control plans, and supplier qualifications.
• Support packaging, logistics, and pre-commissioning validation through coordination with field deployment teams.
• Own module-level manufacturing costing—including CAPEX, OPEX, labor, utilities, facilities, scrap, and throughput assumptions.
• Provide inputs to BOM development, installation timelines, and overall project planning.
