Job description

Do you want to contribute to a more sustainable world? Are you excited to help shape the future of battery technology and consequently the future of consumer electronics and mobility? Can you not wait to dive into a VC-backed deep tech scale-up with the ambition to change the world? We are looking for an Senior Battery Scientist - Engineer to join our innovative and ambitious organization and drive deep understanding and performance improvement of 100% silicon-anode lithium-ion cells, lead technical projects, and help shape the next generation of high-energy batteries. About LeydenJar: High energy density is an urgent, unmet need across consumer electronics, mobility, and the wider electrification of industry. Yet the battery industry typically improves by only 3% per year. LeydenJar addresses this by tackling the energy density bottleneck: the anode. Our 100% silicon anode, regarded as the holy grail of the battery industry, enables up to 50% increase in energy density. We have demonstrated 500+ cycles without external pressure on multilayer pouch cells using our 100% silicon anode. We are now progressing into scaled-up production, with increasing customer traction, and our first...
