Role





You will support our R&D; team in testing electrodes and electrocatalyst coatings for water electrolyzers. Most of your time will go into hands-on lab work: measuring how well coatings adhere to their substrates, inspecting electrode surfaces under a microscope, and running basic electrochemical tests. You will learn how electrolyzer electrodes are made, tested and qualified, and your results will feed directly into the team’s development work.

Responsibilities

• Prepare electrode samples for testing: cutting, cleaning, drying, weighing and labelling.
• Run ultrasonication weight-loss tests on coated electrodes to measure coating adhesion, and record mass loss on an analytical balance.
• Inspect electrode and coating surfaces by optical microscopy, capture images, and log cracks, delamination and non-uniform coverage.
• Run basic electrochemical tests on a potentiostat, such as linear sweep and cyclic voltammetry, under the guidance of the team.
• Prepare electrolyte
