The posting

American Battery Technology Company (ABTC) provides technical development and commercialization of domestic, sustainable sourcing of critical battery materials through lithium-ion battery recycling and battery metal extraction technologies for use in batteries that power electric cars, grid storage applications, and consumer electronics and tools. Our first of kind systems produce commercial-scale battery materials that are sold into the battery manufacturing supply chain.

As a Staff Metallurgical Engineer, you will engage in all facets of process R&D, design, and implementation of our proprietary lithium-ion battery recycling processes and primary resource extraction and purification technologies. The primary function of the candidate will work closely with our research and development laboratory team, and engage with our engineering organization, plant operations team, and various external experts to ensure the successful design, construction, and operations of our facilities. The ideal candidate will be familiar with metallurgical process research and development, hydrometallurgical processing, mineral processing, and designing and conducting experiments needed for operations of first-of-kind facilities. They should be passionate about designing, implementing, and maintaining efficient metallurgical processes and accounting, ensuring quality control of outputs, specifying equipment, and working in a high-performance and fast-paced environment. The candidate will be a team-player, problem-solver, and have a keen interest in scaling processes proven at the bench-scale up to pilot- or pre-commercial scales. This should include a constant focus on evaluating current processing steps and proposing and developing next-generation solutions to continuously improve system performance and operability. This position will report to our Director of Research & Development.

Requirements

  • Laboratory support for the research and development of primary resource extraction and purification and battery recycling systems from laboratory scale to pilot and commercial.
  • Design and conduct experiments to develop novel processing routes for extracting lithium from claystone and downstream refining back up to battery grade specifications.
  • Understanding the R&D deliverables and consulting on the technical requirements for pre-feasibility and feasibility studies related to mineral and metallurgical processing for public disclosure documents
  • Design and conduct experiments to develop novel processing routes for extracting elemental battery components from battery feedstock and refining back up to cathode grade specifications.
  • Coordinate studies between internal and external collaborators on next-generation recycling technologies
  • Optimization test work of process chemistries and mineral/particle processing circuits.
  • Complete mass and energy process on new processing designs and metallurgical accounting
  • Flowsheet development for primary and/or secondary resource processing
  • Support operations and engineering by providing technical feedback of metallurgy and particle processing fundamentals and process chemistry.
  • Understand project R&D requirements related to scope and schedule.
  • Data analysis, report writing, and presentations of results.

Qualifications:

  • B.S degree in Metallurgical Engineering, Chemical Engineering or Mineral/Particle Processing or related field with similar experience.
  • Strong hydrometallurgical and mineral/particle processing background
  • Strong laboratory skills: wet chemistry and mineral/particle processing
  • Strong understanding of metallurgical analytical tools (e.g., ICP-OES, TGA, PSA, XRD)
  • Strong understanding of surface chemistry and dewatering method and technologies
  • Experience in the design and testing/demonstration of mineral/particle processing circuits
  • Data analysis and interpretation
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
