Responsibilities

  1. General lab duties such as cleaning and drying battery cell components and upkeep of gloveboxes and lab areas.
  2. Electrode material inspection, qualification and coin and pouch cell assembly in glovebox.
  3. Battery testing using electrochemical workstations and cyclers
  4. Identify and troubleshoot defects or inconsistencies in the assembly process.
  5. Logging and reporting electrochemical data and its initial analysis with the view to making further improvements.
  6. Destructive part analysis on allocated cells.
  7. Waste management.
  8. COSHH and SOP management.


Qualifications

  • A chemistry/materials science master’s degree OR more than >3 years of lab experience in a relevant industry (materials science, electrochemistry, engineering)

  • Basic knowledge of hand tools and labware.
