    • Review and influence part and assembly designs through DFM and DFA feedback, guiding Design Engineering toward manufacturable, cost-effective solutions
    • Collaborate across disciplines (Design Engineering, Quality, Operations, Supply Chain) to resolve interdependent issues and ensure manufacturing readiness
    • Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior engineers, technicians, and machinists; lead internal projects without direct people management responsibility
    • Utilize CAD or SolidWorks to develop detailed component, assembly, and tooling designs for in-house and external manufacturing
    • Interface with external vendors and internal partners to support fabrication strategy, quality expectations, and production timelines
    • Represents Manufacturing in cross-functional and external technical discussions, advising stakeholders on complex manufacturing topics
    • Operate with a safety-first mindset and ensure manufacturing processes comply with all health, safety, and company policies
    What we need you to bring to the team:

    • Experience with production layout planning, capacity planning, and equipment selection
    • Strong hands-on fabrication experience (machining, welding, assembly)
    • Passion for sustainability and advancing innovative, disruptive energy technologies
    Compensation:
    • The anticipated starting pay range for this position is $100,000-$137,000 and may be more or less depending upon skills, experience, and education.
