In recent years, Form Energy has earned a number of accolades, including being named by TIME as a "Best Invention", MIT Technology Review as a "Top Climate Tech Company To Watch", and Fast Company as "One of the Next Big Things In Tech". We are making rapid progress on our mission of delivering energy storage for a better world, and our team is growing just as rapidly to meet demand.

We are assembling a team of highly talented and driven individuals across the country. Driven by our core values of humanity, excellence, and creativity, our team is determined to deliver on our mission and transform the energy landscape for the better.
Feeling energized to make a meaningful impact on the world? Then keep reading - you've come to the right place.
Role Description
The Factory Software team is seeking a Factory Software Engineer to bridge the gap between physical manufacturing hardware and enterprise-level orchestration. In this role, you will be responsible for the development and ownership of the mission-critical software services and data architectures that power our entire factory ecosystem. You will function as a key partner to our Manufacturing, Automation, and Quality teams, building high-performance systems that enable real-time process control, material flow orchestration, and end-to-end product genealogy. You will collaborate closely with Data Engineering and Platform teams to leverage our on-prem and cloud infrastructure, building scalable, custom solutions that serve as the digital backbone for our first-of-a-kind manufacturing lines.
What you'll do:
  • Architect and Scale the Factory Stack: Design, develop, and deliver the end-to-end software services and data architectures-built in Go and Postgres-that orchestrate novel battery electrodes and assembly lines.
  • Build the Digital Backbone: Drive the integration of real-time machine data with high-level business logic, ensuring seamless material flow, process control, and comprehensive product genealogy across the entire factory.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with experienced software, data, controls, process, and quality engineers to bridge the gap between hardware and software, developing a high-quality, high-performance digital factory ecosystem.
  • Operational Excellence: Take ownership of the systems you build by participating in rotating on-call shifts and providing on-the-floor support, ensuring rapid problem-solving and continuous 24/7 production.
  • Continuous Innovation: Leverage on-prem and cloud infrastructure to build scalable solutions that replace legacy silos with a unified, software-driven manufacturing environment.

What you'll bring:
  • 5+ years of industry experience building and scaling production-grade software services
  • Professional expertise writing high-performance, reusable code in Go within a collaborative environment
  • Deep experience in relational database design, schema management, and query optimization using Postgres
  • Demonstrated ability to architect and own end-to-end software systems that orchestrate complex, real-world processes
  • Strong communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to relay technical architecture decisions to non-technical stakeholders
  • Proven track record of working independently with excellent time management and the ability to prioritize critical path tasks in a high-stakes environment
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or equivalent practical experience
  • Significant experience in a manufacturing, warehouse, or logistics environment working with software that interacts with physical hardware is highly desirable
  • Experience collaborating with a diverse range of stakeholders, including Automation, Process, and Operations teams, to define system requirements
  • Experience with distributed systems, message brokers, or containerization (Docker/Kubernetes) is a plus
  • A passion for technical mentorship and a desire to drive engineering excellence in a fast-paced, mission-driven startup environment

Where you'll work:
This role is based at Form Factory 1 in Weirton, WV-an easy commute from the city of Pittsburgh, PA. This 550,000-square-foot facility is our hub for high-volume battery production and a leader in the new era of American energy manufacturing. Relocation assistance is available.
