    Job description

    About Torus

    Torus is headquartered in Utah and is expanding manufacturing at our 545,000-square-foot facility in Salt Lake City called GigaOne. We are the world’s first mesh energy infrastructure, uniting communities through resilient, sustainable, and intelligent power. We design, engineer, manufacture, install, and support our systems end-to-end, standing behind them throughout their lifecycle. Torus systems help reduce costs, lower emissions, and protect facilities from outages, while strengthening the security and reliability of the broader utility grid. Torus is committed to American manufacturing, engineering excellence, and building energy systems that last.

    Torus has raised over $267 million from investors like Magnetar, Mercado, ICONIQ and Origin Ventures. The investments are helping to accelerate deployment of modular power plants across utilities, data centers, and industrial sectors. This investor confidence reflects the strength of our team, technology as well as the scale of the problem we are solving. 

    At Torus, you will be part of something larger than a single product or technology. Your work will help build energy infrastructure that supports and strengthens our electrical grid, critical  systems, industry, and communities for decades to come. We value accountability, collaboration, and clear thinking. We are looking for people who want to solve hard problems and build things that matter.

    About the Role

    The Quality Engineer is responsible for ensuring that all products, components, and sub-

    assemblies meet quality standards and customer specifications before they are shipped or

    moved to the next phase of production. This role involves leading root cause analysis,

    continuous improvement, process documentation, and data capture. You will also assist in

    conducting visual and function tests, examining materials, reading specifications, using

    precision measuring tools, and documenting inspection results to maintain high levels of quality

    control. As well as performing process audits, root cause analysis, nonconformance review and

    disposition. This is a hands-on opportunity for someone who wants to help build and mature

    Torus’s Quality Management System (QMS) from the ground up — not step into a system that

    is already fully established.

    ● Adhere to all safety protocols and regulations to ensure a safe working environment.

    Follow company policies and procedures, as well as industry standards and guidelines,

    to ensure compliance with applicable regulations

    ● A clear communicator who values transparent dialogue, gives feedback promptly, and

    seeks context before making assumptions

    ● Safety-conscious, quality-focused, and efficient as you balance precision with

    speed, committed to doing it right the first time
