Full Time About Soelect Soelect, Inc. is an advanced battery technology company developing next generation lithium metal anodes, advanced electrode technologies, and high energy density battery systems. Our core technology, Lithium-X® , is an advanced lithium metal anode platform designed for next generation batteries across defense, aerospace, drones, robotics, and other high energy applications. We are seeking an experienced Senior Battery R D Engineer to lead battery research, cell development, experimental programs, and government funded R D projects. Position Overview The Senior Battery R D Engineer will play a key technical role in developing and validating next generation lithium metal and advanced battery technologies. We are looking for an experienced, hands on engineer or scientist who can independently move a technical problem through: Research Concept → Experimental Design → Cell Fabrication → Testing → Data Analysis → Root Cause Analysis → Technical Solution → Validation This position will also support and lead federally funded R D programs, including proposal development, technical execution, milestone management, and reporting. Key Responsibilities Lead R D activities for lithium metal and next generation battery technologies. Design and execute battery experiments independently. Develop and optimize electrode materials, electrolytes, cell designs, and manufacturing processes. Fabricate and evaluate coin cells, pouch cells, half cells, full cells, and other experimental cell configurations. Conduct electrochemical testing including cycling, rate capability, Coulombic efficiency, EIS, CV, and related techniques. Analyze relationships among materials, cell design, manufacturing conditions, and electrochemical performance. Investigate battery degradation, failure mechanisms, interfaces, and performance limitations. Perform root cause analysis and develop technically sound solutions based on experimental data. Support scale up from laboratory research toward pilot manufacturing and larger cell formats. Prepare technical reports, presentations, experimental documentation, and invention disclosures. Work closely with internal engineers, external cell manufacturers, universities, national laboratories, customers, and research partners. Mentor junior engineers and researchers when appropriate. Federal R D Programs Experience with U.S. Government funded R D programs is strongly preferred .
