About the role
- This role sits at the intersection of deep technical ownership and systems thinking.
- You'll shape how hardware decisions ripple across the full product lifecycle, from early concept through high-volume manufacturing, balancing cost, complexity, reliability, and manufacturability as a unified problem.
- If you thrive on hard problems, take full ownership from the first sketch to the final spec, and want your work to directly accelerate the energy transition, this role was built for you.
Responsibilities
- Own hardware development and technical leadership through all stages: conceptualization, prototyping, testing, and production.
- Build, test, and analyze hardware systems using sensors, test equipment, and electromechanical components.
- Rapidly iterate on designs and analyses to guide product development direction.
- Apply Design for Manufacturing (DFM) principles, including poka-yoke techniques, to reduce part count, process complexity, and improve reliability.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and external engineering partners to drive design decisions and execution.
- Ensure designs comply with applicable codes, industry standards, and safety requirements.
- We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle.
- Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.
- Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports and strengthens our electrical grid, critical systems, industry, and communities for decades to come.
- As a Senior or Principal Mechanical Engineer, you'll own the design, validation, and productization of the sub-systems that make resilient, scalable energy storage possible, whether that's battery-based, flywheel-based, or the integration points between them.
Requirements
- You've internalized "do it nice or do it twice" and it shows in how you work.
- Who You Are You seek context before conclusions.
