Electrolyzer researcher

Electrolyzer researcher

Hydrolite is a leading company in the development of hydrogen-based electrochemical devices for generation of green electricity. The company is looking for a researcher in the field of anion-exchange membrane electrolyzer. The candidate will be in charge of research projects related to subjects such as electrolysis efficiency, identification of failure mechanisms, hydrogen crossover and device behavior under various operation profiles. He will be part of small team of researchers but will also interact with mechanical and process engineers using the input from the research to produce improved large size devices. By combining hands-on work and research skills in the fields of electrochemistry and materials science, the candidate will run lab-scale and larger size electrolyzer stacks, reports his findings and proposes rational pathways to improve the efficiency and lifetime of the device
