Manufacturing Engineer

Build at the frontier, where superconductors, cryogenics, and megawatts meet

Spinor Energy's mission is to accelerate the global transition to renewable energy with breakthrough technology.

We’re building the real-life flux capacitor: Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage (SMES), a battery that stores electricity in the magnetic field of a superconducting coil.

Our engineering spans four disciplines at once: superconducting materials, megawatt-scale power electronics, cryogenics, and vacuum systems. At Spinor, you'll get your hands on all of them.

You will own consequential hardware architecture and first schematic through bring-up, validation, and field deployment.

The Role

We are hiring a Manufacturing Engineer to build and own Spinor’s magnet and cable production, developing the highest rate superconductor magnet fab in the world.

You Will

• Lead development of high-value manufacturing processes for our MagFab, including but not limited to magnet winding automation, material acceptance tests, and automated assembly stages

• Design the processes and tools used to integrate superconductor magnets, and own production build cells: layout, material flow, assembly/process controls and verification, part sequencing/inventory, and technician management

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing, Robotics, Physics, Aerospace Engineering, another relevant discipline, or equivalent practical experience
• Strong fundamentals in manufacturing and test, designing specialized fixtures and tooling, material flow and handling, in-process monitoring and acceptance testing, and experience managing technicians to build and verify complex development hardware safely

Preferred Qualifications

You have driven end-to-end product success across an entire hardware lifecycle from initial problem statement through design, build-out, and high-rate manufacturing, and can iterate quickly to de-risk high-impact requirements early in the development cycle.

You bring several of the following

• Experience developing, qualifying, or automating high-integrity joining processes (precision soldering, micro-welding, adhesive bonding) and deploying non-destructive testing (NDT) methodologies

• Hands-on experience fabricating, winding, or testing superconducting magnets, HTS tape structures, or high-performance electrical machines, including practical familiarity with precision wire-handling, insulation application, vacuum resin potting, or cryogenic testing
• Comfortable in solving problems that cross-domains: mechanical, electrical, software, and automation

Relevant experience may include stored energy systems, aerospace manufacturing, battery pack manufacturing, thin film deposition and handling, or other technologies.

We do not expect one person to have worked in every one of these areas. We care most about technical depth, learning velocity, and evidence that you can build and ship.

Spinor Energy is an equal-opportunity employer.
