Junior Test Bench Engineer / Ingénieur bancs d'essais
About Dioxycle
Dioxycle is developing next-generation electrified chemical manufacturing technologies that produce cheaper, cleaner and sovereign critical chemicals, key to mining, energy infrastructure, pharmaceuticals, agriculture and consumer goods. Our technology uses electricity and widely available feedstocks (CO, CO2 emissions, salt streams) rather than fossil fuels, de-linking the production of critical chemicals from fossil-linked supply chains exposed to chokepoints, export bans, and price volatility.
We focus on chemicals where our direct electrified pathway simplifies complex multi-step fossil-fuel-based processes into fewer simpler steps; delivering a process that is both cleaner and cheaper. Having validated the superiority of our technology at our industrial module scale, we are now preparing for commercial deployment.
We are supported by world-class funders including Lowercarbon Capital, Breakthrough Energy Ventures and Gigascale Capital and have raised $40M to date. We operate from two centers in Paris and California (so whether you are passionate about outdoors or good food/art scenes, we have a location for you to join!)
Your Mission
Dioxycle is hiring a Junior Test Bench Engineer (CDI) to take care of our electrolysis test benches and prototypes. As a Junior Test Bench Engineer, you will have a key hands-on role designing, assembling, and troubleshooting automated test benches. You will apply mechanical, electrical, and software skills in your every day work, contributing to continued improvement and operation of our extensive electrolyzer test systems. You will implement different regulation loops for pressure, temperature, flow, etc, and, more generally, contribute to various systems projects.
Your Responsibilities
- Design, construction and improvement of end-to-end test benches, including the mechanical, electrical, software and process parts
- Troubleshooting and maintenance of the test benches, including instrumentation and controls
- Design of the electrolysis sub-systems using thermal and fluid calculations
- Testing and validation of the sub-systems through the implementation of test protocols
- Implementation and tuning of PID controllers
- Writing of documentation
- Benchmark suppliers and contact them
- Maintain inventory and improve the inventory system
We are looking for a pragmatic, hands-on, and versatile Test Bench Engineer who is dedicated to advancing our mission and possesses the skills outlined below.
