Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

5 transfer filings in the last year, covering 5 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 10 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • Sodium-ion is cheap, readily available, and safe - making it the leading contender in a rapidly evolving market.
  • Our leadership team is powered by decades of expertise in scaling gigawatt-level innovation at world-class companies such as Tesla, Northvolt, Apple, Powin, Enovix, Zipline, Solid Power, SunPower, and Fluence.
  • We recently announced America's first sodium-ion grid storage factory in Sacramento with production starting Q1 2027, and over $1B in signed customer commitments including Jupiter Power and Energy Vault.

Responsibilities

  • Own the day-to-day operation, preventive maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair of facility systems, including HVAC and process cooling, electrical distribution, compressed air, plumbing/process piping, and building automation/controls.
  • Perform and oversee hands-on installation, troubleshooting, maintenance, and repair of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems throughout the facility.
  • Keep the building envelope, dock doors, cranes/hoists, and material-handling infrastructure supporting production operations in good working order.
  • Build, develop, and lead a team of approximately 1-3 Facilities Technicians as the site scales, including scheduling, mentoring, and supporting ongoing technical development.
  • Source, qualify, and manage outside contractors and vendors across electrical, mechanical, fire/life-safety, pest control, janitorial, grounds, and waste/recycling services, including scoping, quoting, scheduling, and invoice review.
  • Manage project scope, schedule, budget, and contractor coordination in partnership with manufacturing/process engineering, EHS, outside architects, engineers, and contractors.
  • Maintain accurate facility documentation, including as-built drawings, preventive maintenance schedules, equipment logs, and related records. Own the facilities operating and capital budgets and track spend against forecast.
  • Identify and implement energy-efficiency, reliability, and sustainability improvements across facility operations.
  • Peak Energy is looking for a hands-on Facilities Engineering Lead to own facility operations and construction coordination at our battery energy storage system (BESS) manufacturing facility.
  • This is a working-lead role responsible for keeping the physical plant - including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, life-safety, and process-support systems - safe, compliant, reliable, and operating at the level our production lines depend on.

Requirements

  • Equivalent experience counts - time served through a trade apprenticeship, military technical training, or progressively responsible maintenance/facilities roles is weighed the same as a formal degree.

Nice to have

  • 5+ years of progressive, hands-on experience in industrial facilities maintenance, operations, engineering, or MEP systems within a manufacturing, industrial, or heavy-processing environment.
  • Experience in battery, electronics, chemical processing, automotive, or similarly regulated or utility-intensive manufacturing is a strong plus.
  • medium-voltage exposure is a plus.
  • Working knowledge of industrial electrical systems and wiring methods, including the National Electrical Code (NEC) and electrical distribution up to 480V

Company info

  • 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.
  • We are backed by strategic investment and product partners including TDK Ventures, Eclipse Ventures, and GM Ventures.
  • About the Job
  • You'll be on the floor diagnosing, troubleshooting, maintaining, and supporting installation and repair of facility systems while also managing contractors, capital projects, and facility documentation.
