Job DescriptionJob Description

Company Overview

Driven by our vision of the affordable, reliable, net-zero carbon grid of the future, Mainspring has developed a new category of power generation — the linear generator — that delivers local, scalable, and fuel-flexible power to help accelerate the transition to the net-zero carbon grid.

The unique combination of attributes offered by Mainspring’s linear generator enables applications on both the commercial and utility sides of the meter for the $816B global electricity equipment market. We serve a wide range of Fortune 500 customers across markets and industries as well as top-tier utilities and other gridside providers.

We are looking to build relationships with people who share our values:

  • Pragmatic Optimism. Building a new category of world-class power generation requires the optimism of ambition and creativity, balanced with practicality to solve problems efficiently. The challenges that arise are opportunities for growth.
  • Excellence without Ego. We bring expertise and commitment to creating the best customer experience, from sales to deployment and service, just as we apply deep technical rigor to building and delivering world-class products. We strive for excellence and behave as leaders with the humility to acknowledge our challenges, both collectively and as individual contributors.
  • Proactive Collaboration. The integration and cross-disciplinary nature of Mainspring’s business requires intentionally seeking out others who bring different skills, perspectives, and priorities. Our culture of inclusion and respect extends beyond our team to interactions with our partners and customers.

Mainspring is based in Menlo Park and has partnered with top-tier investors and utilities such as Khosla Ventures, Bill Gates, NextEra, and American Electric Power. More information can be found at www.mainspringenergy.com.

Responsibilities

Do you enjoy diving into new development and formulating a testing approach in areas like controls, modeling (MIL, SIL, PIL), algorithms and physics? We combine this science and technology with our company vision of building a new category of power that is affordable, reliable, and targeting a net-zero carbon grid.

This is an opportunity for you to join a world-class engineering team: to develop and execute test plans, build and run automation, and ensure the quality for our products. The Linear Generator control algorithms are all novel and bespoke to match Mainspring's fundamentally new form of electricity production. As a Controls Test Engineer, you will ensure the behavior of the system is correct. You will have significant influence over the quality of the product, engage with developers to understand new features and technologies, and create innovative testing solutions within tight requirements to solve complex scenarios with multiple components.

  • Develop test plans, test cases, traceability matrices, and automation
  • Write technical test approaches, failure analysis, risk mitigation, and maintaining tests
  • Ensure comprehensive test coverage and risk analysis

Qualifications

  • Experience in controls, models (MIL, SIL, PIL), algorithms, and physics
  • Understand real-time hardware as it impacts timing and discretization
  • Worked with sensors such as pressure transducers, RTDs, current transducers, and quadrature encoders
  • Experience with automation using Python, bash, and C++ on embedded real-time systems
  • Have used common test tools like TestRail, GitLab, or similar
  • Degree or equivalent in controls, mechatronics, electronics, or systems

The Bay Area salary for this role is $80k-$115k base + pre-IPO stock options + benefits. This position is on-site in Menlo Park, CA. The salary will be adjusted to reflect local market conditions based on the experience of the employee.

Does your experience not meet all of our posted requirements? Studies have shown that some people are less likely to apply to positions unless they meet every listed requirement. At Mainspring, we are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, flexible, and collaborative environment, so if you want to help us transition the world to clean and affordable electricity, and don’t meet all posted requirements for a particular role, we’d still love to hear from you. Mainspring can sometimes be flexible enough to shift responsibilities for the right person, or otherwise identify open or upcoming roles that may better fit your professional background.
