Your team and your responsibilities
Team/division description
In the heart of Europe's innovative landscape, a dynamic and diverse team of researchers and developers embarks on a mission poised to redefine the future of energy storage. With a steadfast commitment to sustainability and a keen focus on circular economy principles, this team stands at the forefront of battery research and development.
The team is part of the Material Engineering Division and focuses on new materials and analytical technologies for the next generation of automotive battery cells.
Your project
We are now offering a position to elaborate new materials for Li-ion cells, especially considering high energy density cells. The focus will be more particularly on the development and preparation of electrolyte using promising concept for increasing ionic conductivity. Additionally, new electrode manufacturing process will be tested and compared with existing one.
The activity may include:
1. Benchmark state of the art technology in the specific field
2. Manufacture electrodes and electrolytes for Li-ion batteries
3. Test cells using several electrochemical tests
4. Identify technology issues, suggest solutions and improvement
5. Standardize process issuing work instruction sheets
Your Profile
6. Master student in final year (preferably: Chemical / Electrochemical / Materials Engineering)
7. Good knowledge in electrochemistry, material science, ink and electrolyte formulation
8. Flexible team player
9. Open personality able to work in an independent way, hands-on activities
10. Basic computer skills (MS Office and database)
11. Knowledge of battery modelling, including understanding of governing equations, domain, and use cases
12. Fluent in English, any other European language is a plus
Starting date: March / April 2026
Duration: 6 months
