A strong understanding of the physics behind lithium-ion batteries and mechanisms of battery degradation is essential, along with proficiency in battery data analysis techniques and experience with programming languages such as Python.

Responsibilities:

  • Develop multiscale physics-based models of lithium-ion batteries with a focus on electrochemical processes, thermal dynamics, and degradation mechanisms.
  • Analyse battery data to extract performance metrics and identify early signs of degradation.
  • Develop multiscale physics-based models of current collectors production process.
  • Collaborate with experimentalists to design tests and gather data for parameterization and validation of models.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams and project partners to integrate modelling insights into practical applications.
  • Contribute to the development and optimization of battery testing protocols and techniques.
  • Attend and actively participate in progress and project meetings.
  • Write detailed progress reports and technical documentation.
  • Represent the company at external events, showcasing our modelling capabilities.
  • Translate simulation results into actionable insights for real-world battery applications.
  • Build a robust portfolio of models addressing electrochemical, thermal, and degradation aspects of lithium-ion batteries.
  • Foster strong collaboration with teams in the UK, US, and Israel, ensuring alignment and synergy across R&D and industrialisation efforts.

Required Skills:

  • PhD or engineering degree in a field related to battery electrochemistry, thermal dynamics, or mechanical modelling.
  • 2+ years experience in a similar position.
  • Strong understanding of the physics behind lithium-ion batteries and mechanisms of battery degradation.
  • Extensive experience with PyBaMM and other battery modelling tools.
  • Proficiency in battery data analysis techniques to extract performance metrics and degradation signs.
  • Knowledge of battery testing techniques and experience in designing or conducting battery tests.
  • Experience with programming languages such as Python, with a focus on data analysis and modelling.
  • Excellent communication skills and ability to work collaboratively in a team-oriented environment.

Desirable Skills:

  • Experience in the fabrication and testing of lithium-ion batteries.
  • Experience working in a multidisciplinary research environment across multiple institutions.
  • Familiarity with machine learning techniques for data analysis and simulations.
  • Experience in a software development environment.
  • Experience with abusive tests at the cell level.
