You'll collaborate with engineers and equipment manufacturers to develop application methods and train technicians on analysis execution. Additionally, you'll set up a coin/pouch cell testing facility to support electrode analysis

Currently the team consist of 5 subject matter experts, who's experienced in a specific processes. We aim to expand the team to at least 10 engineers. Our team's overarching objective is to drive innovation and advancement within the battery industry.
