Are you ready to build America’s energy future? Form Energy is an American manufacturing and energy technology company. We’re revolutionizing energy storage with cost-effective, multi-day technology designed to keep the electric grid secure and reliable, even during extended periods of stress. By strengthening the electric system and reimagining what’s possible, we’re giving clean energy a whole new form! In recent years, Form Energy has earned a number of accolades, including being named by TIME as a “Best Invention”, MIT Technology Review as a “Top Climate Tech Company To Watch”, and Fast Company as “One of the Next Big Things In Tech”. We are making rapid progress on our mission of delivering energy storage for a better world, and our team is growing just as rapidly to meet demand. We have signed contracts with leading electric utilities across the United States and production of our iron-air batteries is underway at our first high-volume manufacturing facility in West Virginia. Working for Form Energy is more than just a job, it’s a chance to be part of something extraordinary. And now - right as we significantly scale up battery manufacturing -  might be the most exciting moment in the company’s history to join. We are assembling a team of highly talented and driven individuals across the country. Driven by our core values of humanity, excellence, and creativity, our team is determined to deliver on our mission and transform the energy landscape for the better.Feeling energized to make a meaningful impact on the world? Then keep reading - you’ve come to the right place.<h2>Role Description</h2>Form Energy is hiring a Senior Service Engineer that will play a critical role in the successful deployment and long-term operation of Form’s utility scale battery deployments. In this role, you will be part of a foundational team that is developing the infrastructure, tooling and processes to achieve high up-times for Form’s novel iron-air battery technology. While you will be the subject matter expert on the operation and serviceability of the liquid and gas handling battery sub-systems, you will also need to investigate and resolve issues on all of the battery’s sub-systems. Form’s goal is to detect and address issues before they affect the customer. This will require you to closely collaborate with the hardware and software design, manufacturing, quality, and reliability teams to create serviceable products, to drive rapid resolution of issues and to develop product improvements. You should be comfortable troubleshooting complex systems remotely (using telemetry data) and locally in the field, executing tasks yourself, directing other engineers and technicians, and coordinating closely with internal and customer stakeholders to achieve high customer satisfaction with Form’s 100-hour battery.This opportunity will help shape and scale our multi-day energy storage system, contributing to the growth of a fast-moving company with breakthrough technology and an incredible mission, contributing to a sustainable future! Relocation assistance is available. <h3>What you'll do:</h3><ul style=""><li>Tooling &amp; Diagnostics: Conceive of and specify field tooling, diagnostic software tools, and test fixtures required for maintaining and commissioning the electrolyte and gas management systems in Form’s batteries.
