Peak Energy designs and deploys grid-scale sodium-ion energy storage systems for reliable, lower-cost energy infrastructure. Backed by Eclipse Ventures.
About the role
Peak Energy is seeking a Manufacturing Production Engineer to support day-to-day production at our Sacramento factory. This role sits between process engineering and equipment sustaining: you're on the floor, troubleshooting equipment and process issues in real time, working with production to improve OEE, and driving mechanical and process improvements on the machines and lines you own.
What they're looking for
- Experience in automotive, EV, battery, aerospace, or other high-volume regulated manufacturing
- Experience with OEE and SPC chart tracking, improvement methodologies (lean manufacturing, Six Sigma), and basic statistical analysis
- Experience troubleshooting PLC-based automation systems (Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Beckhoff, or similar) or interest in learning
- Experience with robotic work cells (Fanuc is a plus) or interest in learning
- Experience with laser welding systems (Trumpf, IPG) or interest in learning
- Experience with two-part adhesive/potting/dispense systems (Nordson, Graco, or similar) or interest in learning
