Established in 2010, the Energy Research Institute @ NTU (ERI@N) is a pan-university research institute that focuses on systems-level research for tropical megacities. It performs translational research that covers the energy value chain from generation to innovative end-use solutions, motivated by industrialisation and deployment. ERI@N has multiple Interdisciplinary Research Programmes which focus on translational Research, Development & Deployment which focus on specific area of the energy value chain, and a number of Living labs and Testbeds which facilitate large scale technology deployment enabling validation and demonstration of real-world applications.
We are looking for an Engineer to lead the scale-up of VRFB stack designs from lab and pilot scale to commercial systems, ensuring performance, reliability, and manufacturability. The role bridges R&D, testing, and production to enable smooth transition into large-scale deployment.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead the scale-up of vanadium redox flow battery stacks from prototype to commercial scale while ensuring performance and reliability.
Develop, assemble, and validate stack designs through structured testing, durability studies, and failure analysis.
Work closely with manufacturing and supply chain teams to ensure designs are production-ready and cost-effective.
Establish test rigs, SOPs, and quality benchmarks, and use performance data to drive continuous design improvement.
Job Requirements:
Bachelor/master’s or PhD in Mechanical engineering, or a related discipline.
Minimum 5 years of hands-on experience in electrochemical stack development, preferably in vanadium redox flow batteries, fuel cells, or similar systems.
Strong practical knowledge of stack scaling, assembly, and performance testing.
Experience with durability testing, failure analysis, and data-driven design improvement.
Ability to work across R&D, manufacturing, and testing teams in a scale-up or pilot-to-commercial environment.
We regret to inform that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.
