Design electrochemical stacks at CURA using mechanical engineering, sealing, materials selection, and three-dimensional computer-aided design expertise. Work hands-on with prototype hardware.
As CURA’s Electrochemical Stack Design Engineer, you will own mechanical stack design from cell chemistry through multi-cell hardware. Your work covers flow and current distribution, compression, sealing, materials, tolerances, fabrication, testing, and scale-up. You will collaborate with electrochemists, prototype technicians, engineers, and external fabricators while supporting CURA’s planned 30,000-tonne-per-year demonstration facility.
Key Responsibilities: Lead flow fields, plates, manifolds, frames, gaskets, and compression systems
Develop sealing strategies for swelling, creep, relaxation, and thermal cycling
Create three-dimensional CAD models, drawings, assemblies, and bills of materials
Design fixtures, tooling, jigs, and hardware for leak testing
Analyze failures and improve stack architecture for scale-up
Requirements: Bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering or related discipline
Three or more years designing electrochemical stacks hands-on
Experience moving stack hardware through prototype, fabrication, assembly, and testing
Direct gasket, seal, compression, and leak-tight fluidic system experience
Proficiency with three-dimensional CAD, GD&T;, tolerance stack-ups, and manufacturing principles
Apply electrochemical stack design, sealing, materials, CAD, and hands-on testing expertise to CURA’s industrial scale-up work.
