R&D Scientist

About the startup

We are revolutionizing Direct Air Capture (DAC) by developing a
unique electrochemical process
6x more energy efficient than first generation and 2x better than the most ambitious second generation technologies. At scale,
we estimate the cost to be well below $100/ton,
unlocking the potential of DAC at scale, and paving the way towards Net-Zero emissions.

About The Role

We are looking for a
R&D Scientist in energy storage
to help us optimize out first fully integrated prototype of our technology. The role will focus on leading and executing research, development, and upscaling efforts, ensuring the most effective pathway to industrial fabrication and supply chain integration.

Location:
HQ in Paris downtown - we can sponsor relocation visa if needed

Language:
English fluency required. French is not mandatory but a plus.

Your Responsibilities

• Lead and execute the study and optimization
  of core technology components to enhance performance and scalability. Conduct experiments and
  simulations (e.g., COMSOL)
  to guide R&D strategy and accelerate technological advancements.
• Oversee and execute the fabrication and upscaling
  of core components from prototype to industrial scale, ensuring readiness for supply chain integration and industrial manufacturing.
  Ensure compliance with industry standards, regulations, and quality requirements
  for the energy storage technology we are developing.
• Build and leverage industry and academic networks
  to support development and commercialization efforts, including assisting in the preparation and development of European grants involving consortia.

Ideal Background(s)

We are looking for a candidate with a
PhD in a relevant field (Energy Storage, Materials Science, Electrochemistry, or related discipline)
and/or
a minimum of 2-3 years of meaningful industry experience
in energy storage.

• Proven
  experience working with energy storage devices from TRL 4 onwards
  , including large-scale applications.
• Hands-on expertise in fabrication & R&D
• Knowledge of
  quality regulations and industry standards
  for energy storage technologies and understanding of
  industry challenges, supply chain logistics, and existing bottlenecks
  .
• Experience with
  simulations and modeling (e.g. COMSOL, DFT, MATLAB)
  to inform R&D strategies and circuit modeling.
• Expertise in
  project management
  , successfully delivering complex projects on schedule and within budget.
• Ability to
  manage a project
  , from cost to people and time constraints.
