Laboratory Analyst, Lithium-Ion Battery Materials

Job Description

Job Description

Coulometrics is seeking a hands-on Laboratory Analyst to support the characterization and evaluation of

materials used in lithium-ion batteries. This position combines analytical instrumentation, powder characterization, coin-cell fabrication, and electrochemical testing. The analyst will work directly with cathode, anode, and other advanced battery materials and will be responsible for generating accurate, repeatable data for customer and internal development programs.

What You’ll Do

 Perform BET surface area measurements and related surface characterization.

 Perform X-ray diffraction (XRD) testing for material identification and structural characterization.

 Conduct laser diffraction particle-size analysis and evaluate particle-size distributions.

 Measure tap density and other physical properties of battery powders.

 Prepare electrodes and assemble lithium-ion coin cells, including electrolyte filling and cell sealing.

 Set up and monitor electrochemical testing, including charge/discharge cycling, capacity, efficiency, rate

capability, and related performance measurements.

 Prepare samples and solutions for analytical testing using established laboratory procedures.

 Maintain accurate laboratory records, organize test data, and prepare concise technical summaries.

 Perform routine calibration, verification, cleaning, and basic maintenance of laboratory equipment.

 Follow and help improve standard operating procedures (SOPs) and test methods.

 Troubleshoot unexpected results and support additional battery-material characterization as needed.
