## About the Role

* Subject Matter Expertise: 10+ years of deep technical experience in Test Engineering and data analysis, with a proven track record of leading complex hardware verification programs.
 * Data-Driven Strategy: Extensive experience architecting test strategies, processing high-bandwidth vibration data, and translating raw results into actionable engineering insights that directly impact product reliability.
 * Design Partnership: A demonstrated ability to serve as a strategic partner to Design Engineering, bridging the gap between theoretical design and physical validation to influence early-stage hardware concepts.
 * Analytical Rigor: Proficiency in closing the loop between test and analysis, ensuring that empirical data is used to increase the fidelity of static and dynamic models. Sense of urgency and self-driven to hit difficult schedule targets.
 * External Test Lab Partnership: Proficiency in understanding in-house and external lab capabilities, and direct/coordinate test execution at external labs per business needs.

## Description

* Technical Leadership & Design Influence: Lead the design, prototyping, and testing of various subsystem-to-subsystem interfaces and how they integrate into our battery products, ensuring it meets and exceeds critical performance and strategic requirements. You will oversee daily test execution and high-fidelity data processing to ensure critical program milestones are met while directly influencing design teams to improve product robustness against harsh environmental disturbances. Serve as a technical pillar within the organization, mentoring engineers across levels, elevating our mechanical engineering best practices, and championing safety, especially in the development of new laboratory processes.
 * Risk-Based Strategy & Failure Analysis: Architect comprehensive test profiles and strategies to systematically "burn down" technical risks across complex systems. You will be a key driver of the DFMEA process, providing expert inputs on failure modes to ensure potential vulnerabilities are identified and mitigated early in the design cycle.
 * Cross-Functional Design Influence: Act as the critical link between the Test and Design teams. You will influence early-stage hardware concepts and translate test failures into actionable design recommendations to improve product robustness.
 * Operational Excellence: Drive team efficiency by developing internal tools and standardizing reporting and data analysis workflows to scale our output.
 * Multi-Site Test Execution Coordination: Drive test execution schedules by partnering cross-functionally between Form Energy test sites, deployment sites, and offices, as well as coordinate test execution at external laboratories depending on operational needs and core competencies.
