    Job Description

    Company Overview

    Driven by our vision of the affordable, reliable, net-zero carbon grid of the future, Mainspring has developed a new category of power generation — the linear generator — that delivers local, scalable, and fuel-flexible power to help accelerate the transition to the net-zero carbon grid.

    The unique combination of attributes offered by Mainspring's linear generator enables applications on both the commercial and utility sides of the meter for the $816B global electricity equipment market. We serve a wide range of Fortune 500 customers across markets and industries as well as top-tier utilities and other gridside providers.

    We are looking to build relationships with people who share our values:

    • Pragmatic Optimism. Building a new category of world-class power generation requires the optimism of ambition and creativity, balanced with practicality to solve problems efficiently. The challenges that arise are opportunities for growth.
    • Excellence without Ego. We bring expertise and commitment to creating the best customer experience, from sales to deployment and service, just as we apply deep technical rigor to building and delivering world-class products. We strive for excellence and behave as leaders with the humility to acknowledge our challenges, both collectively and as individual contributors.
    • Proactive Collaboration. The integration and cross-disciplinary nature of Mainspring's business requires intentionally seeking out others who bring different skills, perspectives, and priorities. Our culture of inclusion and respect extends beyond our team to interactions with our partners and customers.

    Mainspring is based in Menlo Park and has partnered with top-tier investors and utilities such as Khosla Ventures, Bill Gates, NextEra, and American Electric Power. More information can be found at

    Mainspring Energy is growing rapidly and beginning to manufacture its Linear Generators, and reliability is a crucial element to the success of the product. The reliability team is responsible for evaluating design risks, and implementing tests and analyses to quantify and reduce risk to an acceptable level for the target market. Reliability engineers will use tools such as FMEA, HALT and root-cause analysis on a regular basis. The successful candidate is highly organized and communicative, and will thrive in a nimble fast-paced environment that includes engineering, R&D and manufacturing.

    Responsibilities

    • Perform reliability testing including mechanical stress tests, shock, vibration and environmental testing. Prepare concise and detailed test plans and reports.
    • Design, build and run reliability test fixtures and apparatus.
    • Conduct failure analysis using analytical techniques and methodology to derive root cause.
    • Work with design engineers in the development and implementation of the risk analysis process. Be part of a cross functional team executing FMEA for design, process and maintenance.
    • Develop verification test plans with design engineers based on system and sub-system specs and possess the knowledge of system architecture and industry standard protocols
    • Based on knowledge of UL and NFPA standards, guide cross-functional design team for excellence of design in electrical & fuel system components.

    Qualifications

    • Bachelor of Science in Engineering or a physical science.
    • Demonstrated ability to complete challenging multi-system engineering projects
    • Hands on experience building mechanical & electrical devices
    • High comfort level and practical experience with the use of tools and diagnostic equipment, both mechanical and electrical (e.g. torque wrench, DMM, oscilloscope)
    • Understanding and use of FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis)
    • Data Analysis and reporting capabilities (Matlab, Google Docs, Weibull ++, JMP, etc.)
    • Ability to set up and automate a variety of repetitive testing operations.
    • Experience working in a dynamic engineering environment, where systems and processes are evolving rapidly.
    • Strong understanding of electrical system concepts and components
    • Strong understanding of mechanical assemblies and components.
    • Experience in compliance testing (UL, IEC, etc.) a plus.

    The Bay Area salary for this role is $95k-$139k base + pre-IPO stock + benefits. This position can be on-site or hybrid. The salary will be adjusted to reflect local market conditions based on employee location as well as the experience of the employee.

    Does your experience not meet all of our posted requirements? Studies have shown that some people are less likely to apply to positions unless they meet every listed requirement. At Mainspring, we are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, flexible, and collaborative environment, so if you want to help us transition the world to clean and affordable electricity, and don't meet all posted requirements for a particular role, we'd still love to hear from you. Mainspring can sometimes be flexible enough to shift responsibilities for the right person, or otherwise identify open or upcoming roles that may better fit your professional background.
