About the role

  • Lead the development and execution of the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) and Advanced Product Quality Planning (APQP) frameworks for electrical assemblies to ensure flawless product launches.
  • Drive the entire product industrialization lifecycle, from influencing early Design for Manufacturing (DFM) to managing end-of-life quality dispositions and continuous improvement.
  • Resolve high-impact, complex technical issues at supplier sites by coordinating cross-functional teams (Design, Reliability, and Test) to implement robust corrective and preventive actions (CAPA).
  • Determine the methods and procedures for new supplier programs, supervising supplier resources to ensure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and yield targets align with Form’s long-term scale.

  • Network with key stakeholders to align supplier capabilities with Form Energy’s technology roadmap, traveling (20%) to audit sites and verify process stability firsthand.

Requirements

  • BS in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field
  • Deep experience implementing PPAP, conducting SCAR (Supplier Corrective Action Request) investigations, and managing supplier quality systems
  • Demonstrated mastery in developing design documentation (BOMs, drawing packages) and optimizing manufacturing/assembly processes for cost and scale
  • Ability to lead without formal authority, removing "blocks" for the team and providing technical mentorship to both internal peers and external partners
  • Extensive experience in the build, testing, and commissioning of high-voltage or high-power electrical equipment
  • Excellent communication and organizational skills.
