Cathode Scientist

About the Role

TaiSan is developing next-generation polymer electrolyte to enable Sodium Batteries 2.0 — higher energy density, safer, and scalable. We are looking to recruit a Cathode Developer to own cathode electrode development from powders through coated electrode sheets, and to drive cathode + catholyte optimization for high-voltage, high-capacity sodium battery cells.

In this role, you will design and optimize cathode electrodes and catholyte formulations, define strategies for selecting the best sodium cathode chemistries for TaiSan’s cells, and work closely with analytical and cell teams to ensure improvements translate into higher voltage, higher capacity, and high-rate discharge performance.
