Job summary

Teragen Energy Corporation is seeking a Mechanical Engineer to act as a force multiplier across our technology organization. You will work across R&D, testing, stack engineering, manufacturing process development, and system integration, delivering fixtures, test stands, and tooling for high-temperature cell processing and stack assembly.

This is a 100% hands-on, cross-functional role reporting to the CTO. You will develop hardware for furnace fixtures, assembly tooling, and system concepts

Qualifications

• BS or MS in mechanical engineering or equivalent.
• Broad mechanical design fundamentals including fixturing, DFM, prototyping, and hands-on fabrication.
• Comfortable context-switching across multiple workstreams and priorities.
• Ability to make practical tradeoffs between speed, precision, cost, safety, and manufacturability.
• Interest in developing deep fluency in SOFC mechanics as we scale.

Responsibilities

• Design and build fixtures, test stands, processing hardware, and prototype tooling that support cell development, cell testing, and stack assembly. This is a 100% hands-on role.
• Partner with the Stack Engineering on component-level design of seals, manifolds, interconnects, and assembly.
• Support outsourced fabrication relationships when external fabrication is faster, safer, or more appropriate than in-house build.
• Work directly with Cell, Materials, Stack, and Test Engineering to translate constraints and data needs into working hardware.
• Maintain practical CAD, drawings, build notes, and design documentation so hardware decisions remain visible and reusable.
