ROLE DESCRIPTION
Form Energy is hiring a Senior Service Engineer that will play a critical role in the successful deployment and long-term operation of Form’s utility scale battery deployments. In this role, you will be part of a foundational team that is developing the infrastructure, tooling and processes to achieve high up-times for Form’s novel iron-air battery technology. While you will be the subject matter expert on the operation and serviceability of the liquid and gas handling battery sub-systems, you will also need to investigate and resolve issues on all of the battery’s sub-systems. Form’s goal is to detect and address issues before they affect the customer. This will require you to closely collaborate with the hardware and software design, manufacturing, quality, and reliability teams to create serviceable products, to drive rapid resolution of issues and to develop product improvements. You should be comfortable troubleshooting complex systems remotely (using telemetry data) and locally in the field, executing tasks yourself, directing other engineers and technicians, and coordinating closely with internal and customer stakeholders to achieve high customer satisfaction with Form’s 100-hour battery.
This opportunity will help shape and scale our multi-day energy storage system, contributing to the growth of a fast-moving company with breakthrough technology and an incredible mission, contributing to a sustainable future!
Relocation assistance is available.
WHAT YOU'LL DO:
- Tooling & Diagnostics: Conceive of and specify field tooling, diagnostic software tools, and test fixtures required for maintaining and commissioning the electrolyte and gas management systems in Form’s batteries. Launch the use of these tools by being the first user of them and training others to use them.
- Design for Serviceability (DFS): Partner with the product design teams to ensure the electrolyte and gas management systems (pumps, valves, fans, vents, manifolds, sensors, and piping) are accessible, maintainable, and safe to service in field conditions. Ensure that the DFMEAs cover operational risks.
- Tier 3/4 Field Support: Perform remote and on-site diagnostics and troubleshooting of equipment using SQL and custom data visualization and analytic tools. Act as the ultimate subject matter expert
