Description

  • Commit to a 6+ month internship, either remote or onsite.
  • Analyze electrochemical data to build, parameterize, and apply numerical models.
  • Fit electrochemical models to experimental data and evaluate model performance across different test techniques.
  • Architect and implement physics-based battery models using PyBaMM.
  • Support backend pipeline and tool development for wider use of physics-based models.
  • Work closely with scientists and cross-functional teams to share insights and advance battery materials development.
  • Bridge theoretical equations with production-grade software code.
  • Use model insights to accelerate learning cycles and reduce empirical R&D cost.

Requirements

  • BSc, preferably MSc or current Ph.D. enrollment, or equivalent research experience in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field.
  • Strong experience using PyBaMM is required.
  • Mastery of Python, including NumPy, SciPy, and Pandas.
  • Experience interacting with databases using SQL or Snowflake.
  • Proficiency with Git and collaboration platforms such as GitHub or GitLab.

  • Knowledge of electrochemical theory and P2D or Doyle-Fuller-Newman models.
  • Public contributions to the PyBaMM repository or related GitHub projects.
  • Proficiency with AI coding tools such as Claude Code or Copilot, plus effective prompting techniques.
  • Experience building CI/CD pipelines, using Docker, or exposure to full-stack development.
  • Commitment to a 6+ month internship; summer-only availability is not sufficient.

Benefits

  • Starting base pay of $25/hr to $39/hr.
  • Eligible for overtime.
  • Competitive Total Rewards package that may include benefits, perks, and equity.
