We're hiring for a highly experienced Director, Mechanical and Industrial Cleantech Engineering to lead our Cell Engineering Design team in Vienna, Austria. This team is responsible for delivering the mechanical architecture and design of multiple generations of Amodite’s LDES battery cell (goal 4-6 months of storage) and its first commercial version with 2.5 months of storage at affordable costs (5-10 times cheaper than lithium-ion) - using storage for heating and electricity output - the long term goal are potential applications for airplanes, container ships, EVs, eVTOLs; candidates must bring experience in design for high volume manufacturing.

The Director, Mechanical and Industrial Cleantech Engineering will recruit and hire for a world class team to execute on the development of multiple generations of our product cell design in parallel.


Subsequent product generations shall aim for reduced cost, increased reliability and performance, and higher volume production.


This role will require regular travel to partner and new manufacturing units (10% travel required / Germany, Italy ..). The ideal candidate possesses expertise in designing mechanical assemblies composed of low-cost metal and many other components, with experience in design for high-volume manufacturing. Further, the ideal candidate is a strong advocate for rigorous mechanical verification and validation testing. Overall, we’re looking for a battle-tested technical hardware director who wants to grow a team, drive product development for a cutting edge energy storage technology, as well as lead hands-on design, prototyping, and manufacturing ramp efforts. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of scaling our multi-month energy storage system at Amodite long and contributing to a sustainable future!
