Senior Battery Data and Simulation Expert (all genders)

With whom you will CELLebrate  

The mission hast started. We proudly announce that in our Battery Valley we are starting our own battery cell production and the ramp up of our worldwide headquarters for global cell manufacturing. The CTO organization takes care of the battery cell development. Our responsibility includes research, predevelopment of materials and components, series development, prototyping, testing and analysis of battery cells.

     How you will CELLebrate

• Lead and Innovate: Coordinate, analyze, interpret, and evaluate detailed experiments and battery testing on automotive and laboratory scales to gain electrochemical properties of electrodes and materials.
• Drive the Future: Support the development of the next generation of batteries for e-mobility applications.
• Collaborate and Excel: Develop, implement, and support strategic projects and partnerships. Manage projects and work closely with interdisciplinary teams, both internally and with external partners.
• Hands-On Management: Take a leading role in developing, coordinating, monitoring, and analyzing battery tests. Manage samples, electrodes, and materials for testing in our state-of-the-art lab. Create and maintain a comprehensive test database.
• Innovative Testing: Develop suitable measurement methods for testing battery behavior and validating simulation models.
• Simulate and Optimize: Simulate the performance and aging of batteries, parameterize and calibrate electrochemical models, and develop new models and methods for detailed descriptions of physical and chemical processes in batteries.

     What you need for our CELLebration

• Industry Experience: Several years of experience in the battery industry, particularly with battery cells.
• Educational Background: A successfully completed (under-)graduate degree in chemistry, materials science, physics, computer science, mathematics, engineering, or a comparable qualification.
• Technical Skills: Relevant experience in data analysis and good programming skills for data processing and visualization (e.g., MATLAB, Python, numpy, scipy, pandas, Plotly, Bokeh, PowerBI). In-depth knowledge of battery simulations, e.g., in COMSOL Multiphysics.
