Battery Engineering Technician (contract)

We are looking for a hands-on Battery Engineering Technician to join our battery team in a fast-paced eVTOL startup environment.

You will work closely with battery engineers to build, test, and characterize cells, modules, and packs — from prototype builds through validation.

Strong attention to detail, a safety-first mindset, and adaptability are essential.

Strong attention to detail, a safety-first mindset, and adaptability are essential.

• Build and validate battery prototypes from cell through pack level; rework parts and assemblies as needed.
• Set up and execute electrical, thermal, and thermal runaway (TR) tests, including sensor and thermocouple installation on test articles.
• Operate lab equipment: cyclers (Arbin, BioLogic , Chroma), power supplies, ultrasonic/spot welders, hi-pot testers, DMMs, and oscilloscopes.
• Build test fixtures, jigs, enclosures, and harnesses for test stands.
• Document build processes, test data, travelers, and inspection results with strong traceability.
• Handle, store, and dispose of hazardous battery materials per federal, state, and local regulations.
• Maintain a clean, safe lab; collaborate with Engineering and Quality to resolve issues and drive continuous improvement.
• 3+ years of hands-on experience with battery cells, modules, or packs in an engineering or manufacturing environment.
