Company OverviewDriven 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:
ResponsibilitiesMainspring Energy is looking for an energetic individual contributor, passionate hands-on manufacturing engineer who enjoys implementing new automation and test equipment in an industrial environment.
You will join the New Product Introduction (NPI) Automation Group and your work product will have a significant influence on our start-up company’s growth. You will directly contribute to transitioning our Linear Generator breakthrough technology to volume manufacturing and reaching a global scale.
As a manufacturing engineer in the NPI automation group you will support existing manufacturing test processes at the local pilot manufacturing line as well as at a larger scale contract manufacturer. These sustaining engineering efforts will play a crucial role in preparing the company to scale production.
You will also develop new manufacturing test processes and tooling to accommodate our evolving product. From establishing functional requirements all the way to commissioning, you will work with talented engineers from various teams including: software and controls, mechanical/electrical/test engineering, quality, manufacturing and operations. You will also frequently collaborate with technicians, manufacturing partners, external equipment suppliers and contractors.
This is an exciting opportunity for a manufacturing or process engineer with experience and interest in deploying manufacturing test automation systems. The role is based at Mainspring Headquarters in Menlo Park, California and is primarily on-site with limited travel within North America.
