Role Description

Form Energy is hiring a Senior Manager to grow, develop, and lead our Engineering and R&D Finance team. This role reports to the Director of Finance.

As a critical leader in our Finance organization, you and your team will work closely with our Engineering and R&D leads to identify, quantify, report out, and drive consistent execution on key aspects of cost-down for our first-of-a-kind Iron-Air battery. Additionally, you will partner closely with our Supply Chain, Manufacturing, and Programs team to ensure success in change management and cut-in of engineering changes in a live production environment. Lastly, your team will be responsible for driving key inputs into our monthly product cost forecast (partnering closely with our product cost forecasting lead), and for identifying in real-time, opportunities and risks to our projections.

The engineering finance function is responsible for accelerating our progress toward lowest possible installed cost, and thereby accelerating the progress toward full decarbonization of our energy grid.

Success in this role requires a deep commitment to our mission, experience in a dynamic hardware manufacturing environment, bias toward details & ownership, and strong team-building & communication skills.

What you'll do:

  • Build, develop, and manage a team of experienced engineering finance professionals, who will partner closely with our battery R&D, electrode engineering, cell engineering, and system engineering teams on key cost-forecasting, roadmapping, and budget development activities.
  • Manage reporting on engineering-led cost-down initiatives and related metrics (ex. material cost impact, tooling impact, performance impact, expected cut-in timeline, level of risks) that are core to our product development and battery performance roadmap. Partner with engineering, R&D, and programs teams to identify weekly progress, risks, related mitigations.
  • Drive rigorous and detailed should-costing activities (at the part-level) to inform engineering design changes, and design-for-manufacturing sprints. Continuously mature and improve on existing should-costing framework, to incorporate latest learnings from supply chain quotes.
  • Lead the bi-weekly and monthly refresh of engineering and battery performance inputs into our product cost forecasting process. Manage detailed communication and consistent report-out (to VP-level executives) of changes and underlying drivers. Proactively identify risks and jump-start initiatives on related mitigations.
  • Develop strong partnerships with key engineering leaders, manufacturing leaders, and supply chain leaders. Identify key pain points and blockers in execution toward cost-downs, and work consistently to reduce barriers where there are solutions that the finance team can enable.
What you'll bring:
  • 10 to 15 years of experience in Finance (preferably in a hardware manufacturing setting), and experience in managing a team of experienced finance professionals
  • Demonstrated skill in partnering with engineering teams (including senior leaders), and creating frameworks for detailed analytics and reporting
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, especially in high-pressure situations
  • Drive to find elegant engineering solutions and performance pathways to lower the cost of long-duration storage
