About our client

Did you know that we cannot facilitate the energy transition without batteries? 95% of all spent Lithium-Ion batteries are not currently able to be re-used: until our client built the worlds first technology to re-manufacture spent (used) battery material at commercial scale.

This is why they are becoming a big deal; a bigger deal however is the impact we are making for their planet.

Role

As a Battery Material Specialist, you will be responsible for leading the development, optimisation, and characterization of materials for batteries, with a focus on cathode materials. You will work closely with cross-functional teams to drive innovation and ensure the successful implementation of new materials into our products. Having a strong background in materials science, electrochemistry, and practical experience in battery material development is a plus

Responsibilities

  • Research, develop, and optimize battery materials, particularly cathode materials, for various applications, focusing on performance, stability, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Design and execute experiments to evaluate material properties, electrochemical performance, and degradation mechanisms.
  • Collaborate with internal teams to identify material requirements and specifications for product development. 
  • Stay abreast of the latest advancements in battery material technology and contribute to the development of intellectual property.
  • Analyze data, interpret results, and present findings to stakeholders through reports, presentations, and technical discussions.
  • Drive continuous improvement initiatives to enhance material synthesis processes, characterization techniques, and performance metrics.
  • Provide technical expertise and guidance to junior team members, fostering a culture of learning and innovation.

Requirements

  • Ph.D. or Master's degree in Materials Science, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in battery material development, with a focus on cathode materials.
  • Experience with computational modelling and simulation of battery materials is preferred.
  • Knowledge of scale-up processes for transitioning materials from lab-scale to pilot-scale production.
  • Familiarity with regulatory requirements and industry standards for battery materials.
  • Proficiency in materials characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and electrochemical analysis (CV, EIS, etc.).
  • Strong understanding of electrochemistry principles, including ion insertion/extraction mechanisms, redox reactions, and battery performance metrics.
  • Hands-on experience with material synthesis, formulation, and processing techniques.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently as well as part of a collaborative team. 
  • Effective communication skills with the ability to articulate complex technical concepts to diverse audiences.
  • Open to relocate to Melbourne.
  • Europe / USA candidates are welcomed to apply.
