Job Description
We are at the beginning of a global energy transformation of a scale not seen in generations.
Key Responsibilities
- 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.
- Select appropriate materials for components based on their electrochemical and mechanical properties, working with materials and chemistry experts.
- Source and verify prototype components, design and build test cells and fixtures, and develop testing methods to evaluate unit cell performance and reliability.
- Conduct electrochemical and post-mortem analysis to identify the root causes of cell failures.
- Support the transfer of de-risked technology to product development teams according to the technology roadmap.
- Use mathematical modeling to understand and improve complex electrochemical and transport phenomena within the cell.
Requirements
- 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.
- Familiarity with battery testing, failure analysis, and performance optimization.
- Proficiency in CAD software (Onshape preferred) for creating and refining component designs.
- Project management experience is desirable.
- Eligible to live and work in Canada.
- Registered or eligible to register with EGBC as a PEng or EIT.
