Role Description Form Energy is hiring a Staff Supplier Industrialization Engineer, Electronics to serve as the definitive technical and quality authority for our contract-manufactured (CM) custom electronics including PCBAs, electronic box builds, and high-power harness assemblies. Reporting to the Global Supply Management team, you will own the end-to-end industrialization lifecycle, from early-stage DFM and supplier selection through mass production and "cradle-to-grave" quality accountability. As a Staff level engineer, you will architect the quality frameworks—including PPAP and APQP—necessary to ensure our electronics partners scale with world-class reliability. This is a hybrid role, which will require working onsite from our Berkeley, CA office 3-4 days per week. Relocation assistance is available. What you'll do: Own the Quality Lifecycle: Lead the development and execution of the Production Part Approval Process (PPAP) for all electronics assemblies, ensuring suppliers meet rigorous standards for PCBA, SMT, and complex box builds. Architect Manufacturing Standards: Determine the methods, procedures, and evaluation criteria for new electronics programs, leading the formulation of top-level assembly (TLA) processes that align with Form Energy’s long-term scaling targets. Lead Complex Resolutions: Act as the primary technical leader to resolve high-impact production issues, networking with key contacts across Design, Reliability, and Test teams to implement systemic corrective actions (CAPA). Drive Strategic Accountability: Model initiative by deliberately removing blocks in the supply chain; you will supervise and mentor supplier resources to ensure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and yield outcomes exceed organizational targets. Guide Early-Stage Design: Influence the technology roadmap by embedding advanced Design for Manufacturing and Assembly (DFM/A) principles into early-stage designs, ensuring seamless transitions from prototype to mass production. Global Quality Leadership: Manage domestic and international supplier relationships through deep technical audits and source inspections, traveling (20%) to ensure process stability and compliance at the factory floor. What you'll bring: Typically 7–10+ years of related work experience in new product development of electronics (PCBA, SMT, thru-hole, and electronic box builds). Deep expertise in PCBA manufacturing and the industrialization of custom electronic assemblies. Demonstrated experience implementing PPAP/APQP and managing supplier quality performance through data-driven metrics and yield analysis. BS in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field. Proven ability to resolve complex issues in creative and effective ways, demonstrating both depth and breadth of knowledge in electronics manufacturing. Ability to network with key contacts outside of your own area of expertise to drive organizational-level results. Excellent communication and organizational skills. #LI-Hybrid #LI-CB1 Humanity is a cornerstone of Form Energy’s culture, and we make sure our compensation and benefits reflect that.
