About Glimpse
The last decade has been incredibly exciting for electric mobility. However, the electrification of the transportation industry has scaled while relying on an insufficient set of quality control tools. This has led to uncomfortably high rates of battery pack failure and multi-billion-dollar safety recalls. In our view, every headline of electric vehicles and e-bikes catching fire is a major impediment towards an all-electric future.
After having spent a few years in the trenches of battery and electric vehicle factories at Tesla and Toyota, Glimpse’s cofounders developed a vision for a one-stop-shop battery Quality Management Solution, which they actualized through the launch of the Glimpse Portal in March 2024. Today, Glimpse counts some of the world’s largest battery producers and OEMs, such as Lucid Motors and NASA, among its customers.
Role
Our first Solutions Engineering lead will work closely with Glimpse’s three cofounders at the intersection of engineering, customer success, and technical project execution.
We’re looking for a technically fluent, highly organized individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment. You might be a current or former engineer with strong project management skills, a technical project manager with a drive to develop expertise in new engineering fields, or a developer with genuine empathy for customers.
In this pivotal role, you will lead the technical side of our customer engagements from IT software integration and high-performance computing to industrial X-ray system support. While you don’t need to be an expert in every domain to apply, we’re looking for a fast learner who can zoom in on technical details one moment and communicate clearly with both executives and customers the next. This role is a stepping stone to build and lead Glimpse's Solutions Engineering team.
