Staff Reliability EngineerActive$180K–$230K
The opportunity
Peak Energy is the first American venture to advance globally proven Sodium-Ion battery systems as the storage standard for the new era of renewable energy on a resilient grid.
What you'll do
Take independent DfR ownership for existing subsystem reliability and a lead: DfR role for future products, with a focus on HV electronics, devices, and power conversion
Fully develop reliability test programs (DV, PV, ORT) by leading DFMEA,: defining mission profiles, analyzing test acceleration, and specifying test requirements
Build and contribute to custom Python reliability analysis and modeling tools: to automate workflows for life prediction, test design, test/field data, and reporting
Define reliability requirements and acceptance criteria at key program: milestones and clearly communicate risk and reliability confidence to engineering leadership
Develop physics-of-failure lifetime models and close the loop by performing: failure root cause analysis and statistical analyses of test and field reliability data
Partner with the SIE team and suppliers to verify component quality by: overseeing outsourced testing and defining qualification and inspection requirements
What they're looking for
- Collaborate across all teams to embed DfR principles into engineering: decisions throughout the product cycle, including early architecture decisions, manufacturing process development, and cost-down projects
- Bachelor's or master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical: Engineering, Reliability Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field
- + years of experience in hardware reliability engineering in power: electronics, high-voltage systems, or consumer electronics
- Strong understanding of reliability engineering principles including: statistics, data analysis, physics-of-failure, lifetime prediction models, accelerated life testing, and DFMEA
