About the role

A future low-cost, low-carbon electric grid, serving a world that electrifies everything, is within our reach.
The last remaining gap is breaking the link between electricity supply and demand.
The lowest-cost, most sustainable sources of energy today come from intermittent renewable generation; but our homes, businesses and industries need electricity at the flick of a switch.

Develop new unit cell architecture and components, particularly bipolar plate and frame, to improve reliability while reducing cost and complexity.
Develop novel sealing, manufacturing and assembly processes for components and assemblies, e.g. injection moulding, plastic welding, bonding.
Source and verify prototype components, design and build test cells and fixtures, and develop testing methods to evaluate unit cell performance and reliability.
Support the transfer of de-risked technology to product development teams according to the technology roadmap.

Select appropriate materials for components based on their electrochemical and mechanical, working with materials and chemistry experts.
Conduct electrochemical and post-mortem analysis to identify the root causes of cell failures.
Use mathematical modeling to understand and improve complex electrochemical and transport phenomena within the cell.
At least 6 years demonstrated experience in a similar role
A strong understanding of electrochemical cell design and operation.
Knowledge of materials used in energy storage, including polymers, carbon-based materials, and electrolytes.
Experience in low- and high-volume manufacturing methods such as machining, forming, injection moulding, plastic welding.
Expertise in designing and specifying physical components such as bipolar plates, seals, frames.

We are at the beginning of a global energy transformation of a scale not seen in generations.
