The Role
TGRC has partnered with a fast‑growing clean technology company developing next‑generation materials that enable a more sustainable and resilient energy future. The company is pioneering advanced materials that replace expensive and scarce elements with high-performance, earth‑abundant alternatives. Their innovations are helping accelerate the global energy transition, with applications across clean energy, industrial manufacturing, and advanced electronics.
We are seeking a hands‑on Electrochemical Lab Technician to support the development of advanced materials and components for electrolysis.
This is a high‑impact, practical role in a fast‑paced lab environment, offering significant opportunities for learning, contribution, and growth.
Key Responsibilities
* Operate and maintain electrochemical equipment (potentiostats, electrochemical cells, electrolyser systems)
* Fabricate catalyst‑coated membranes (CCMs) and substrates (CCSs) for electrolysers
* Assemble MEAs and integrate them into electrolysis systems for performance testing
* Conduct electrochemical tests (e.g. cyclic voltammetry, impedance spectroscopy, chronoamperometry)
* Design and modify experimental setups for electrolysers, fuel cells, and related systems
* Formulate catalyst inks and apply coatings using advanced deposition techniques (spray, slot‑die, decal transfer)
* Analyse test data to optimize performance, efficiency, and durability
* Support the scale‑up of electrochemical processes for commercial deployment
* Maintain a clean and safe laboratory environment, ensuring compliance with safety procedures
* Track and manage lab inventory and consumables
* Calibrate, troubleshoot, and maintain lab equipment to ensure reliable results
* Collaborate with cross‑functional teams and share results to advance broader R&D goals
