Our inclusive and collaborative culture fosters innovation and creativity, while our commitment to sustainability drives our mission forward.

As a Senior Process Control Engineer at Northvolt, you will spearhead critical initiatives to ensure the highest standards of quality and efficiency in our electrode manufacturing processes. Leveraging your expertise in fluid and electrode process control, you will take the lead in making technology decisions and optimizing in-line process control systems. Your responsibilities will include commissioning, integrating, and fine-tuning these systems to maximize functionality and throughput in our high-speed roll-to-roll processes.

We prioritize understanding the fundamental structure-property relationship of the electrode and conduct trials to enhance our understanding and share knowledge with fellow electrode engineers.

Key responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Make technology decisions for in-line process control devices, focusing on viscosity, density, and solid content for fluid processes.
  • Commission, integrate, and optimize in-line process control systems to ensure optimal functionality in high-throughput mass production, including visualization for production and engineering teams.
  • Drive technology decisions and make-or-buy determinations for vision systems and electrode loading level in-line measuring equipment for electrode processes.
