Full Job Description
At Tandem PV, we are a team of people who are passionate about building a more sustainable world by bringing cost effective solar panels onto the market. We’re scaling metal-halide perovskite solar technology to make best-in-class mechanically stacked tandem modules. We have built efficient, durable cells, monolithic multi-cell submodules, and packaged modules with our scalable, low-cost process. Our next focus is expanding our team to work in our new pilot manufacturing facility. Position Summary The Quality Engineer will report to the Vice President of Quality and drive the development and continuous improvement of our materials and devices as a member of the Quality Team. This role combines hands-on work in the laboratory and on the factory floor with cross-functional collaboration (R&D, manufacturing, supply chain, and external partners) to ensure that our R&D and production technologies develop and scale using sound quality principles. The ideal candidate has an experience set that includes: - Quality system development within advanced technology firms including start-ups, medium and large size firms; - Knowledge of the application of DMIAC principles to emerging advanced technology moving into high volume manufacturing. - The synthesis and analysis of hybrid perovskite thin film photovoltaic-related materials and the integration of those materials into photovoltaic devices. Key Responsibilities - Support total quality management (TQM) systems across materials and device development through defining and improving procedures, specifications, and ensuring change control. - Apply DMAIC (Define–Measure–Analyze–Improve–Control) principles to emerging perovskite technologies, from lab scale to pilot and manufacturing environments. - Advance the development and tracking of key quality metrics (e.g., yield, reliability indicators, defect rates) and drive corrective and preventive actions. - Help Identify, evaluate, and select suppliers, vendors and other external par
