Form Energy is pioneering a new class of battery technology to transform the grid. We are seeking a Senior Staff Program Manager to lead the scaling of our iron‑air battery production from early concept through high‑volume production. In this role you will leverage your technical depth in new product introduction (NPI) and manufacturing to set the strategic direction for equipment design, process qualification, and scaling up our manufacturing systems.

You will lead and develop a team of three Technical Program Managers while setting the execution cadence, operating mechanisms, and decision frameworks that enable scalable, repeatable manufacturing. This is a chance to have a direct, hands‑on impact on scaling up revolutionary, multi‑day energy storage technology.

This opportunity is based out of Form Factory 1 — Form Energy's 550,000‑square‑foot, state‑of‑the‑art manufacturing facility located in Weirton, WV, a commutable distance from Pittsburgh. Purpose‑built for high‑volume, advanced battery production, Form Factory 1 is a hub of fast‑moving, collaborative work driving a new era of large‑scale American energy manufacturing in the heart of the Rust Belt.
