Description
Rondo is accelerating industry’s transition to lower-cost, zero-carbon heat and power.
Our Rondo Heat Batteries turn low-cost renewable electricity into continuous, high-temperature heat and power, enabling industrial facilities to replace fossil-fired boilers without costly process changes. The result is lower-cost, zero-carbon industrial energy delivered safely, reliably, and at 98% efficiency.
Rondo is commercially deployed and rapidly scaling, today. Backed by world-class industrial leaders and investors — including Breakthrough Energy, Energy Impact Partners, Rio Tinto, Aramco, SABIC, SCG, TITAN, Microsoft, H&M, and John Doerr — Rondo is building the next generation of industrial energy infrastructure at global scale.

- Help to implement APQP and PPAP methodology
Improve Product Quality
- Lead investigations into supplier-related quality issues using structured problem-solving methodologies.
- Drive root cause analysis and implementation of permanent corrective actions.
- Monitor supplier performance through KPIs and quality metrics.
- Reduce field quality issues by preventing defects upstream in the manufacturing process.
Support New Product Introduction
- Partner with Product Engineering throughout the product development lifecycle.
- Ensure quality requirements are incorporated into new designs and supplier selection.
- Approve First Article Inspections (FAI), Supplier qualification and production validation activities where appropriate.
- Help establish inspection strategies and critical-to-quality characteristics.

- Work closely with Engineering, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Project Delivery, and Field Service.
- Support incoming inspection strategies and supplier containment activities when necessary.
- Provide technical leadership during supplier visits and manufacturing reviews.
- Share lessons learned across suppliers and product lines to continuously improve Rondo's products.
What You Will Bring:
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering.
- Approximately 4–8 years (P3) or 7–12 years (P4) of experience in Supplier Quality, Manufacturing Quality, or Supplier Development.
- Experience working with electrical or electromechanical components in industrial, energy, automotive, automation, or heavy manufacturing environments.
- Strong understanding of manufacturing processes for electrical assemblies including cable harnesses, control panels, switchgear, sensors, power electronics, or similar products.
