Senior Cell Engineer

Our client, a specialist in advanced materials that supports cleaner energy, electric vehicles, and sustainable solutions, is currently looking to hire a Senior Cell Engineer. The successful candidate will work hands on in the laboratory executing experimental designs, including evaluating new materials, electrode processing, cell assembly and testing and data processing.

The Senior Cell Engineer will:

• Interact with R&D, cell design and material design teams to effectively and efficiently advance the organisation’s core SiFAB® silicon anode technology.
• Manage and take responsibility for Si Anode cell system design optimization including Component Optimization, E Chem Interpretation and feedback whilst working within a wider team and acknowledging all inputs.
• Perform in-depth data analysis on experiments and use datasets to justify new experiments.
• Lead efforts in material testing and down selection, including electrode processing, cell assembly and testing and data processing.
• Write, follow and educate teams on standard operating procedures and keep detailed records for all associated equipment maintenance and material/cell testing.

The Senior Cell Engineer will have:

• D. or equivalent in Battery-related Chemistry, Materials Science, Engineering or a similarly relevant field with 5+ years of experience post-Ph.D. Or M.S. with equivalent work experience (+8 years)
• Strong background in silicon anode technology and its electrochemical interactions with cell components (electrolyte, cathode, etc.) is highly preferred.
• Knowledge of industrial standards for battery materials, processing, and testing protocols.
• Strong knowledge of electrochemical characterization techniques (e.g., EIS, CV, DQ/DV, three-electrode cells).
• Extensive hands-on experience in design and fabrication of lithium-ion battery cells from separate components (active materials, slurries, coatings, etc.) to full cell design (coin cell & pouch cells).
