Supply Quality Engineer

Delivering on that promise depends on the quality of every part that goes into our products. As our Supplier Quality Engineer, you make sure the components our suppliers ship meet our standards before they ever reach the line, so every home we power gets a product that lasts. This is a hands-on role spanning the full product lifecycle, from qualifying and developing suppliers through new product introduction and into sustaining quality once parts reach mass production.

Lunar Energy was founded to transition homes to 100% clean energy—making our electricity greener, our air cleaner and our energy more safe, secure and reliable for all. We’re a fast-growing, global company building the world’s best clean energy products to electrify all homes and connect communities to form clean, resilient virtual power plants.
