Jobs at Exponent Energy

Owns design-stage quality for charger hardware, leading DFMEA, design verification planning, validation criteria, test reviews, failure analysis, and corrective actions. The role collaborates with hardware, firmware, and process quality teams to ensure charger architecture and components meet performance, safety, and reliability requirements. It also supports field issue analysis, fault tree documentation, design reviews, and continuous product improvement.

Own end-to-end quality for integrated EV powertrain products spanning battery, motor, controller, and vehicle systems. Lead integration-level DFMEA and PFMEA, define testing checkpoints, analyze performance and reliability issues, conduct root cause and fault-tree analyses, and support service readiness. Collaborate with engineering teams, represent quality in stage-gate reviews, and translate customer issues, maintenance needs, and service requirements into product improvements.

Own factory-floor quality for battery, product, and vehicle-integration prototype builds. Identify and document assembly deviations, drive root cause analysis, provide feedback to design and process-quality teams, certify assemblies and vehicles for testing, and support closure of build-related non-conformances. The role requires hands-on factory-floor work and cross-functional collaboration, with preferred experience in EV or automotive prototype environments.

Own manufacturing and build-stage quality for EV chargers from PFMEA through end-of-line testing and field commissioning. Responsibilities include identifying process risks, defining acceptance criteria, conducting root cause analysis, tracking corrective actions, supporting process audits, driving defect reduction, and commissioning chargers at installation sites. The role requires hands-on manufacturing quality experience, structured problem-solving, and willingness to travel.

Own factory-floor quality during charger prototype builds, identifying and documenting assembly deviations, driving root cause analysis, providing feedback to design and process quality teams, and certifying charger assemblies for testing. The role also supports closure of build non-conformances, escalates recurring issues, and requires hands-on collaboration in a dynamic manufacturing environment.

Own APQP gate readiness and program quality across battery, product, and integration programs. Validate DFMEA, PFMEA, control plans, and DVP activities; drive quality actions to closure; participate in build-stage root cause analysis; track RCA and CAPA; collaborate on service Fault Tree Analysis; and ensure documentation meets IATF 16949 standards.

Own APQP gate readiness and program quality for charger development from proof of concept through SOP and beyond. Validate DFMEA, PFMEA, control plans, and DVP activities; drive quality actions and checkpoints; participate in build-stage root cause analysis using 8D and 5-Why; track CAPA closure; collaborate on service Fault Tree Analysis; and ensure documentation meets IATF 16949 standards.

Lead mechanical design for battery packs, charging stations, connectors, and vehicle integration kits. Own designs from concept through production, ensuring structural, thermal, sealing, serviceability, manufacturability, and cost performance. Review calculations and tolerance analyses, develop validation plans, conduct root-cause investigations, collaborate with manufacturers and assembly teams, and document development using FMEA, DFX, DVP, and inspection plans.

Supports field and remote service for electric vehicles and battery systems. Diagnoses faults in batteries, powertrains, motors, and charging systems using CAN diagnostics and test instruments; assists with battery rework, swaps, preventive maintenance, root-cause analysis, reporting, and service campaigns. Interfaces with customers and fleet operators, manages escalations, provides engineering feedback, and helps reduce vehicle downtime. Extensive travel and relocation to field or depot locations may be required.

Provide remote and field technical support for commercial electric vehicles, diagnosing battery, powertrain, high-voltage, CAN, and electrical issues. Analyze failures, conduct root source analysis, coordinate with OEMs, technicians, engineering teams, and customers, and ensure timely issue closure. Support battery swap operations, pack rework, service reporting, technician training, and Design for Service improvements. The role requires extensive travel, shift or on-call availability, and strong EV after-sales support experience.

Identify and develop strategic partnerships across EV, automotive, fleet, charging, financing, and related ecosystems. Manage partner relationships from initial engagement through execution, including commercial proposals, negotiations, business cases, governance, timelines, and deliverables. Coordinate cross-functional teams, assess commercial viability, conduct market and competitive analysis, manage stakeholders, resolve risks, and prepare executive reporting and partnership documentation.

Own end-of-line and functional testing for EV battery packs and rapid DC chargers. Develop test strategies, specifications, plans, acceptance criteria, automated test equipment, and HIL environments. Design and validate test rigs, troubleshoot failures, analyze test data, and improve testing cycle time, accuracy, robustness, and repeatability while collaborating with design, integration, and manufacturing teams.

Own end-to-end development of hardware products from concept and prototyping through manufacturing and field deployment. Lead cross-functional squads, define and prioritize problems, make cost, quality, and timeline trade-offs, drive design and validation reviews, manage budgets and product costs, identify and mitigate risks, and resolve field failures. The role requires hands-on experience with engineering, suppliers, production lines, and customer outcomes, plus the ability to lead without direct authority in an ambiguous environment.

Lead and build Exponent’s hardware engineering team, owning engineering quality, hiring, team development, production readiness, cross-functional collaboration, budgets, resource allocation, morale, and culture. The role covers electrical architecture, component selection, schematic and layout design, harnesses, integration, EMI/EMC, DFX, embedded and power electronics hardware, and taking electromechanical products from concept through production.

Own the strategic sourcing of all metal components, negotiate with suppliers, and drive innovation for Exponent Enabled Electric Vehicles.

This role involves developing and industrialising wiring harnesses and PCBAs for EV systems, ensuring manufacturability and quality by collaborating with suppliers and engineering teams.

The Manager will oversee process design, standardisation, and continuous improvement in the charging network operations. Responsibilities include operational excellence, cross-functional coordination, feedback management, data discipline, and risk management.

Lead FP&A and operational finance initiatives, manage budgets, track metrics, control P&L across manufacturing and services, and execute financial operations.

The Manufacturing Engineer will lead the development of metal components for EVs, emphasizing manufacturability and quality through supplier collaboration and innovative processes.

Lead accounts payable and P2P operations including invoice processing, vendor management, payments, reconciliations, month-end close, audit support, process improvements and AP reporting. Manage and develop the AP team, ensure internal controls, resolve supplier disputes, coordinate with procurement, and drive systems implementation and automation to improve efficiency and compliance.
