Volvo Cars is one of the most well-known and respected car brands in the world. Northvolt is a leading supplier of sustainable, high-quality battery cells and systems, dedicated to delivering the world's greenest lithium-ion battery.
Together, we have formed a joint venture, NOVO Energy, to power the next generation of pure electric Volvo and Polestar cars.
Few industries offer as great an opportunity for career growth and personal development as the new European battery industry. In working for this joint venture, you'll not only develop skills that are highly sought after in the global automotive and industrial sector, but you are also contributing to a climate-neutral way of life for future generations.
We are now looking for a Director to R&D Cell Platforms.
Key responsibilities
-
Own development and iteration of non-production cell platforms, enabling research on new materials, processes, and manufacturing methods. Design and optimize a whole range of R&D cells, e.g., cells for DEMS, cells to analyze mechanical behavior of electrodes, cells to test thermal performance of large-area electrodes, and a variety of new custom cell platforms to meet as-yet unforeseen development needs.
-
At first as an individual contributor and eventually as leader of a small team, develop novel cell platforms, test methods, and battery fabrication processes that investigate new materials and de-risk cell integration at scale.
-
Provide quantitative analysis of different stack-level cell designs and infer their performance in production-scale cells.
-
Through iterative cell design, develop unit tests that derisk cell and pack integration at lab scale, including thermal, mechanical, and (conventional) electrochemical tests.
-
Collaborate extensively with materials scientists to iterate on electrode design and electrolyte formulations.
Your Experience
-
Advanced degree in engineering or physical sciences
-
10 or more years of experience in an R&D environment, with a substantial fraction of that time in Li-ion battery R&D
-
Deep knowledge of Li-ion battery design, including mechanical design, tolerances, electrode design fundamentals, failure mechanisms, and electrochemistry fundamentals
- Effortless proficiency in engineering fundamentals, including heat transfer, DC power, stress & strain in materials, and fluid mechanics
- Excellent English communication skills
