Mission

What you will drive

  • Develop and apply technoeconomic models to evaluate competing product concepts and set the program technical direction.
  • Partner with scientists and engineers to understand design options and quantify their impact on system performance and cost.
  • Carry out mechanical design, analysis, and bench scale experiments to de-risk key assumptions and progress from ideation to proven concept.
  • Establish and maintain system-level requirements and cascade them to component and subsystem teams.

Impact

The difference you'll make

This role directly contributes to revolutionizing energy storage with cost-effective, multi-day technology, strengthening the electric grid and enabling a clean energy future.

Profile

What makes you a great fit

  • BS with 5+ years of experience (or advanced degree with commensurate experience) in Mechanical, Electrical, or Chemical Engineering or related discipline.
  • Demonstrated systems-engineering experience — defining requirements, analyzing tradeoffs, and integrating components.
  • Strong physics-based modeling skills and ability to reason from first principles; experience with scientific programming is a plus.
  • Complex hardware development experience — background in batteries, electrochemical systems, or energy storage is ideal, but adjacent domains (automotive, aerospace, semiconductor) are welcome.

Benefits

What's in it for you
