Description
CarbonIP (CIP) is a technology company transforming renewable forestry by-products into bio-based carbon products.Renewable bio-based hard carbon, made from lignin, can augment the supply chain for mined graphite and/or synthetic graphite and create a more robust domestic supply of this critical battery component.
Our research, and early-stage production, has shown that renewable HC and AC, made from lignin, has equivalent, or better electrical properties than existing mined or manufactured (natural or synthetic) graphite supplies.
As our process configurations solidify, and our commercialization pathway unfolds, CIP requires an experienced technician to help expedite carbon testing and production through the production and testing of lithium-ion half-cells and supercapacitors, using our propriety carbons.
The successful candidate will work at CIP's facilities within our contract research organization's location, InnoTech Alberta.This person will report directly to the Chief InnoTech R&D scientist in this area and will be responsible for assembling battery cells and supercapacitors containing CIP's materials and testing the performance of the cells and the raw carbon materials.
Coating, compressing, and preparing electrodes for coin cell and pouch cell constructionBuilding and testing coin cells to evaluate material performance
Measuring and recording in-process battery assembly related quality information
Documentation of cell building records
Measuring properties of the carbons using equipment and techniques such as ion-adsorption capability, Electrical resistivity, carbon and impurity analyses, morphological analyses, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD) for capacity (capacitance) and recyclability
Preparing carbon samples for deployment to external labs and potential customers
Experience working in a manufacturing and/or a lab environment
Experience maintaining, troubleshooting, and repairing pilot plant level and lab equipment
A chemistry, or chemical engineering background or other relevant education related to battery technology.
CIP offers a competitive salary and relocation assistance.
The successful candidate will function as a contractor to CIP and operate out of InnoTech Alberta's Vegreville, Alberta location with access to state-of-the-art laboratory and pilot plant facilities.
