Process Engineer

Our proprietary vanadium solid-state battery (VSSB) technology defines a new class of battery energy storage infrastructure, delivering ultra-safe, high-power solutions through a manufacturing model designed for rapid global scale-up.

We are now looking for a Process Engineer to join our team.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing vanadium solid-state batteries (VSSB) and zinc-ion batteries for energy storage systems, electric vehicles, and other applications.
• Developing and continuously improving electrode compositions and material designs for vanadium- and zinc-ion batteries.
• Evaluating fundamental physical properties and electrochemical performance of electrode materials.
• Supporting and managing battery design activities for both laboratory-scale development and industrial manufacturing.
• Establishing, optimizing, and continuously improving manufacturing processes, including mixing, coating, pressing, punching, module assembly, electrolyte filling, formation, and pack assembly, primarily at the Rosersberg site.
• Conducting small- to mid-scale experiments and test trials to define requirements for improvements to manufacturing equipment and processes.
• Working closely with production operators at the Rosersberg site to identify issues and drive continuous improvement initiatives.
• Utilizing existing equipment hardware and software to minimize production downtime and reduce installation and ramp-up time.
• Creating experimental plans, aligning them with relevant stakeholders, executing experiments, and reporting results to appropriate departments.
• Collaborating closely with automation engineers, equipment vendors, suppliers, IT and AI support functions, and internal stakeholders to define specifications for large-scale process and equipment improvements.
• Supporting cold and hot commissioning of production facilities and equipment, including new coating, assembly, electrolyte filling, formation, and pack processes, at the Rosersberg site and future gigafactories.
• Documenting and supporting FAT and SAT (Factory Acceptance Test and Site Acceptance Test) activities, and following up with suppliers and contractors to enable a structured handover of equipment and processes to production.
• Scaling up and transferring new processes developed at the Rosersberg site to mass production lines.
• Defining equipment and process specifications for factory expansions.
• Supporting production operations at Rosersberg and future sites during testing and validation of new equipment, materials, and processes.
• Supporting the localization of technologies in Europe, including guiding European equipment manufacturers in producing key components within the EU, or outside the EU when required.
