About the role

  • SENIOR DESIGN ENGINEER (ADVANCED ENERGY HARDWARE)
  • Freeform builds AI-native manufacturing systems that unify software, hardware, and physics to produce industrial-scale parts at the speed of human ideation. By treating manufacturing as a single integrated system, we unlock a new era of innovation where complex hardware is designed, built, and scaled without limits.

Responsibilities

  • Develop and own deep component-level understanding of requirements, performance drivers, and system constraints within energy generation, transmission, and storage programs
  • Lead first-principles part redesigns, identifying where additive manufacturing enables new geometries, consolidated assemblies, improved performance, or reduced cost and lead time
  • Define and evaluate design concepts with expert command of materials, tolerances, thermal and structural behavior, and production considerations
  • Serve as a senior technical resource, independently resolving advanced questions related to design tradeoffs, process capabilities, qualification pathways, and production scalability, and helping guide less experienced engineers
  • Partner closely with internal engineering and operations teams to drive feasibility, refine concepts, and own execution outcomes
  • Lead technical engagements with customer engineering teams to understand application requirements, present design solutions, and establish deep technical credibility at a senior level
  • Identify, scope, and champion new application spaces where Freeform's technology can deliver step-change improvements over conventional manufacturing
  • Freeform builds AI-native manufacturing systems that unify software, hardware, and physics to produce industrial-scale parts at the speed of human ideation.
  • By treating manufacturing as a single integrated system, we unlock a new era of innovation where complex hardware is designed, built, and scaled without limits.
  • Freeform is hiring a Senior Design Engineer focused on advanced energy hardware to sit at the intersection of advanced part design and additive manufacturing.

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or closely related technical discipline
  • 5+ years of experience in a hands-on engineering role within power generation, oil & gas, nuclear, renewable energy, or a closely related advanced energy industry <span dat

Compensation

  • $150k-$200k
