As part of this role, youll need to dig into various aspects of production, particularly focusing on:
- Cathode active material (CAM)
- Precursors to CAM (P-CAM)
- Battery recycling
- Anode active material (AAM)
- We have specialized tools within Cost Engineering to help you calculate production costs effectively, but a strong understanding of the production process is crucial.
- As part of your responsibilities, youll delve into comprehending the complex array of equipment necessary for CAM, P-CAM, and battery recycling. This entails a hands-on approach with both machinery and tools, needing frequent visits to production sites to gain profound insights into operational processes and material utilization.
- In addition to equipment understanding, a key aspect of your role will involve the proper management of energy costs and the strategic minimization of maintenance downtime on production lines. A full understanding of market dynamics and the variables that affect price fluctuations is imperative for informed decision making
- Collaboration emerges as a cornerstone of success. Youll be seamlessly integrated into cross-functional teams, liaising not only within Cost Engineering but also with stakeholders such as buyers, engineers, project leaders, and module managers.
- Facilitating transparent communication is paramount. Thus, youll play a pivotal role in disseminating vital cost calculations internally within Cost Engineering and among purchasing teams, fostering a cohesive understanding of financial dynamics.
- Prepare for some travel assignments. Your itinerary will include frequent travel globally to communicate with various companies, together as well as occasional travel to meet with our global team. These trips serve not only to understand operational practices but also to cultivate meaningful professional relationships on a global scale
Profile:
- For this role, were seeking candidates with specialized knowledge in at least one of the following fields: CAM, P-CAM, battery recycling or AAM production. Its essential to have a solid understanding of the raw materials involved in producing CAM, P-CAM and battery recycling.
- Ideal candidates will have prior experience in roles such as Production Engineer, Quality Engineer, Manufacturing Engineer, Process Engineer, Maintenance Engineer, or Product Developer within CAM, P-CAM or battery recycling companies.
- The ability to independently drive projects forward is crucial, coupled with an analytical mindset and cultural awareness. Were looking for team player with exceptional communication skills who can collaborate effectively to achieve our objectives.
Qualifications:
- You have a at least a bachelors degree in engineering (Preferably metallurgical or mining) or equivalent experience.
- People with relevant experience are also encouraged to apply.
