Build Quality Engineer (Battery, Product & Integration)

Role: Build Quality Engineer (Battery, Product & Integration)

Department: New Product Development Location: Bengaluru, India Experience: 5+ Years

Your Team:

You'll be working with New Product Development — a group that runs on coffee and an infectious passion for building products that have never been built before. Our Flexible Energy Stack consists of the e^pack (battery pack) and e^pump (charging station), which unlock 15-minute rapid charging.

Our philosophy:

Break stuff, break assumptions, break the thumb rule.

Believe in the team, the process, and through failures.

Build fast, build passionately, build to simplify.

What you’ll own:

We are seeking a Build Quality Engineer to own factory-floor quality during battery, product, and vehicle-integration prototype builds — catching deviations early, driving root cause on build issues, and certifying builds ready for testing.

The ideal candidate is hands-on, detail-obsessed, and comfortable being the last line of defense before a build moves to test.

What you’ll do:

Prototype Build Quality

• Own quality oversight during battery and vehicle-integration prototype assembly builds
• Identify and document issues as they occur during assembly
• Capture part and build deviations and log them for tracking

RCA & Feedback

• Drive root cause analysis on issues identified during prototype builds
• Provide assembly feedback to the design and process quality engineers

Build Certification

• Certify assemblies and vehicles as ready before they proceed to testing
• Support closure of build-related non-conformances before test handoff

Cross-functional Collaboration

• Interface with the design and process quality teams on recurring build issues
• Escalate patterns and systemic issues to the Function Lead

What you’ll bring:

• Education qualification
• B.E. / B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering or related field
• 1-3 years of experience in prototype or manufacturing builds
• Working knowledge of deviation tracking and basic RCA tools
• Comfortable working hands-on, daily, on the factory floor

Preferred Experience (Good to Have):

• Experience in EV or automotive prototype build environments
• Exposure to both battery and vehicle assembly (vehicle preferred)

What matters to us:

• Quality of work
• Structured problem-solving
• Dissatisfaction with mediocre work
• Ability to multi-task and handle a dynamic working environment
• Resilient attitude to bounce back after failing
