Scientist, Electrocatalyst Development

Role Responsibilities:

• Develop improved molecular electrocatalysts to improve the power, efficiency, and energy density of Voya’s metal-air fuel cells.

• Identify structure-property relationships, determine mechanism of action and failure, and translate into improved catalyst designs.

• Work with external vendors to source novel ligands and complexes for both screening and scale-up. Scope custom syntheses, evaluate feasibility and cost.

• Work with Voya’s product development team to scale and demonstrate your technology from lab to pilot and production-intent systems.

Qualifications:

• Track record of design and synthesis of molecular functional materials. E.g. coordination complexes, organic redox-active compounds, molecular catalysts, dyes/chromophores, soluble sensors, or flow-battery active materials.

• Experience with electrochemical systems (e.g. fuel cells, flow batteries, electrolyzers) preferred but not required.

• Ability to operate in a fast-paced, start-up environment

• Results-oriented with a strong sense urgency

What we offer:

• Competitive salary and equity compensation commensurate with experience

• Unlimited PTO

• 100% employer paid medical, dental, and vision coverage
