Job Description
Energy Exploration Technologies has a mission to become a worldwide leader in the global transition to sustainable energy. Founded in 2018 the company is fundamentally changing the way humanity is powering our world and storing clean energy with breakthrough lithiumion technologies and energystorage solutions.
The Role
We are seeking a highly motivated and technically capable intern to join our interdisciplinary engineering team. This unpaid internship offers a unique opportunity to gain handson experience in a fastpaced R&D environment directly contributing to the design automation and optimization of a novel rolltoroll lithium deposition platform. This internship will start on a rolling basis until we find the right candidate. Candidates must be open to a term between 1012 weeks. Ability to support parttime or fulltime schedules.
During this internship interns will gain:
- handson experience with cuttingedge lithium extraction and deposition technology
- Exposure to realworld development of scalable battery manufacturing systems
- mentorship from engineers and scientists with deep industry knowledge
- potential pathways to future employment opportunities as the company grows
Key Responsibilities
- Support the development and testing of motion control and drive systems for ultralow RPM rolltoroll equipment.
- Assist with PLC programming microcontroller scripting (e.g. Arduino Raspberry Pi) and integration of motor drivers sensors and feedback loops.
- Collaborate with mechanical and chemical engineers to implement realtime control strategies that maintain foil tension and deposition uniformity.
- Contribute to the automation of fluid handling voltage/current regulation and safety interlocks in electrochemical environments.
- Analyze sensor data and develop simple GUIs or dashboards for live system monitoring.
- Participate in system troubleshooting documentation and iterative design cycles.
Required Qualifications
- Currently enrolled in or recently graduated from a Mechanical Electrical Mechatronics Chemical or Systems Engineering program.
- Experience with control systems embedded programming (Python C/C) or PLC ladder logic.
