$190,000 – $230,000 + Equity + Benefits

San Jose, CA

Work alongside a small team of exceptionally strong engineers building next-generation energy infrastructure.

We're supporting a rapidly scaling hardware company as they expand their Mechanical Engineering function across multiple levels.

Why join?

• Massive, long-term market tailwinds (data centers + grid modernization)
• Opportunity to help define a new category of energy hardware
• High-calibre, execution-focused engineering culture
• Scaled from 6 → 50 full-time employees in 12 months
• Targeting ~250 employees in 2–3 years (~150 engineers)
• First-principles environment: high standards, minimal bureaucracy, real ownership
• Meaningful equity upside compared to large corporates

What you'll bring

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering (or similar)
• 6+ years developing complex electro-mechanical or high-power systems
• Experience taking products from clean sheet design through to production
• Strong physics-based reasoning (not purely standards-driven design)
• Comfortable operating in fast-paced, high-expectation environments
