Role Description

As Director of Reliability, you will be responsible for developing the tools, methods and processes that Form uses to deliver world-class reliability in our critical multi-day energy storage product. Form’s key value proposition is to provide clean-reliable power to the electric grid when other types of electricity generation are unavailable. Our product is, by definition, a grid reliability product and our development, verification and validation processes need to rigorously ensure our customers can count on Form when needed most. In this role, you will oversee all aspects of the reliability function from physics of failure to manufacturing ORT to field RCAs. Your scope will encompass our product holistically, from cell to integrated system. The Director of Reliability will report directly to the VP of Engineering.

What You'll Do

  • Develop a vision for the reliability function at Form and then build it. That vision should span from design to manufacturing and long-term operation of our power plants.

  • Hire an exceptional team

  • Accelerate Form’s path to scale by rigorously testing, documenting, and educating internal and external stakeholders on Form’s product reliability

  • Build a DfR function at Form that is highly integrated with the product design teams

  • Develop and execute reliability test plans, informed by comprehensive DFMEA, covering Form’s product from electrode to grid interconnection

What You'll Bring

  • 10+ years of experience (5+ in a leadership role)

  • 5 - 10 years in a reliability function

  • Experience with complex systems involving chemical, material, mechanical and electrical failure modes

  • Experience spanning design to manufacturing

  • Resolute leader who will actively advocate for and champion world-class product reliability

  • B.S. or higher in engineering or physical science(s)

Besides joining a community of people working to make the world better, Form Energy commits to you equitable compensation, stock options, and offers a generous benefits package to make sure you have the support you need to thrive.

We cover 100% of employee premiums and 80% of dependent premiums for medical, dental, and vision insurance for full time employees. We offer a flexible Paid Time Off program and every employee, regardless of gender identity or expression, is eligible for 12 weeks of paid parental bonding leave. A full listing of our benefits is available on our careers page.

At Form Energy, we are working toward a 100% renewable energy future for everyone in the world. We are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all our employees and are seeking to build a team that reflects the diversity of the people we hope to serve with our revolutionary products. Form Energy is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.

Compensation Range: $306.6K - $347.4K
