Form Energy is hiring a Senior Supplier Engineer, Structural Components to support the transfer of structural assemblies, including stamped, laser cut, welded, plated, and bent parts to our suppliers. This role reports into our Global Supply Management team. As part of our Supplier Industrialization Engineering team, you will support new product introduction from concept through production at supplier facilities with a focus on cost-effectiveness and lead design for manufacturing (DFM) analysis to identify and mitigate potential manufacturing issues in collaboration with Program Managers, Cell/Module Engineering, and Advanced Manufacturing, teams. This is an exciting opportunity to help shape and be part of the growth of a fast-moving company with breakthrough technology and an incredible mission!

This is a hybrid role, which will require working onsite from our Berkeley, CA or Somerville, MA site at least 3 days per week.

Relocation assistance is available.

• Collaborate with Design and Advanced Manufacturing teams to co-develop Pack-level structural designs (e.g., Base, Roof, Tower, Cabinets) optimizing for structural integrity, heavy-gauge fabrication, and modular system integration.

• Lead Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and APQP reviews with structural suppliers, focusing on welding feasibility, tube/C-channel bending constraints, and large-scale assembly tolerances.

• Own the Quality Maturation Level (QML) and PPAP roadmap, systematically qualifying supplier Welding Procedure Specifications (WPS), Procedure Qualification Records (PQR), and Welder Performance Qualifications (WPQ).

• Partner with suppliers to establish robust weld verification programs, defining requirements for weld characterization, destructive testing (e.g., macro-etch, tensile), and Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) such as ultrasonic, magnetic particle, or liquid penetrant.

• Proactively identify and mitigate program schedule risks unique to heavy manufacturing, including long-lead raw steel mill runs, supplier crane/handling limits, and large-component shipping/validation constraints.

• Drive closed-loop Non-Conformance Management by issuing SCARs, leading suppliers through formal RCA for structural or weld defects, and verifying process control plans via on-site audits of welding, fixturing, and coating processes.

• 5+ years of experience in supplier quality, industrialization, or manufacturing engineering specializing in heavy-gauge structural steel and large welded assemblies.

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical, Metallurgical, Welding, or Manufacturing Engineering, or a related technical field.

• Demonstrated expertise in structural fabrication processes, including heavy plate/structural steel forming, laser/plasma cutting, and multi-pass welding.

• Strong working knowledge of welding standards (e.g., AWS D1.1, ASME Section IX), weld inspection methods (NDT/destructive), and the qualification of WPS/PQR documents.

• Strong understanding of geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) principles as applied to large, multi-part structural weldments.

• Proven ability to manage technical supplier relationships, lead on-site process control audits, and drive robust root cause investigations (8D, 5-Why).
