Overall Job Summary:
The Associate Materials Failure Analysis Engineer will support the incoming materials quality program root-cause investigations into battery failures, working under the guidance of more senior engineers. This is a great opportunity for an early-career engineer to build hands-on experience in materials, electrochemistry, failure analysis techniques, and manufacturing quality. You'll gain exposure across supply chain, R&D, manufacturing, quality, and field service teams while developing core failure analysis skills.
Job Responsibilities:
Support root-cause failure analysis (RCFA) investigations on battery modules, and systems under the direction of more senior engineers
Perform teardown, inspection, and testing of failed units returned from the field or flagged during production, following established protocols
Conduct analytical testing (electrical characterization, visual/optical inspection, thermal imaging, etc.) and document results accurately
Assist with incoming parts quality and inspection process, including measuring and analysis of components against drawings/specs and logging inspection results
Help maintain FMEA documentation and failure-mode databases for cell, module, and system components
Compile and organize failure data, helping build trend reports and dashboards for the engineering team
Support supplier quality investigations by gathering data and documentation on component-level issues
Assist with safety investigations by helping capture and organize findings and evidence
Draft initial failure analysis reports and summaries for review by senior engineers
Help maintain lab equipment, tooling, and organization as the failure analysis function grows
Education/Experience :
Bachelor's degree in materials science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, or a related field
0–2 years of experience in failure analysis, reliability engineering, quality engineering, or a related lab/manufacturing environment
Skills/Abilities:
Basic familiarity with failure analysis or inspection techniques (electrical testing, microscopy, dimensional inspection, etc.) through coursework, internships, or projects
Exposure to root-cause analysis methodologies (5-Why, Fishbone/Ishikawa, FMEA) a plus
Ability to read basic electrical schematics and mechanical drawings
Strong attention to detail and organizational skills
Clear written and verbal communication skills
Comfortable working hands-on in a lab and manufacturing environment
Eagerness to learn and grow into a more senior failure analysis role
Coursework or project experience with batteries or electrochemical systems
Familiarity with basic inspection tools (calipers, micrometers) and reading GD&T
Exposure to data analysis tools (Excel, Python, or Minitab)
