With whom you will CELLebrate
The mission has started. We proudly announce that in our Battery Valley we are starting our own battery cell production and the ramp up of our worldwide headquarters for global cell manufacturing. In this, the tasks and requirements of the Product Management are varied. The unit is responsible for all activities relating to the development and industrialization of battery cells. Responsibilities range from the preparation of technology roadmaps and portfolio planning to volume and cycleplan planning and the holistic program management for global battery projects.
How you will CELLebrate
* Developing of an innovative deposition process for solid-state batteries
* Practical laboratory working on test benches at the university
* Modifying and conversion of test benches
* Coordinating of an academic partner network in Germany for material and component characterization
* Managing of external partners in the development project (mechanical engineering, simulation, etc.)
* Assumpting of technical responsibility to ensure individual project goals
* Evaluating and preparing of technical decision templates
The final doctoral topic will be defined together with the professor (m/f/d). The prerequisite for the cooperation is the confirmation of supervision as well as a confirmed definition of topic by the professor (m/f/d) of a university or research institution entitled to award doctorates.
The doctorate will take place in cooperation with the University of Bayreuth.
