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.

BS Degree in Mechanical Engineering or a similar engineering field from an accredited institution + 3 years of relevant industry experience or MS + 2 years of relevant industry experience.
Direct experience designing air or liquid handling systems, with demonstrated engineering fundamentals in thermo-fluid system design.
Fluent in SolidWorks or comparable CAD package. Experience with using PDM or a similar CAD version control system is preferred.
Experience with finite element analysis (structural, thermal, or fluids).
Familiarity with 1D or 3D thermal systems design simulation tools.
Experience working with suppliers to develop and qualify new components.
Experience with various manufacturing processes such as sheet metal forming, machining, and plastics molding and forming.
Demonstrated attention to detail with the ability to generate and review design documentation, bill of materials, work instructions and test plans and reports.
Experience utilizing GD&T is ideal.
Self-starter with a proven ability to deliver functional product designs in a rapid development environment. Experience with a full design lifecycle from concept through manufacturing support is preferred
Interest in developing creative and cost effective solutions to enable the deployment of zero carbon energy technology at large scale.
The Bay Area salary for this role is $115k-$125k base + pre-IPO stock options + benefits. This position is on-site in Menlo Park, CA. The salary will be adjusted based on the experience of the employee.
