Check below to see if you have what is needed for this opportunity, and if so, make an application asap. CEO at EELI Technology (We're hiring!) | Activate Fellow | Electrifying Lithium Extraction Join a core team scaling next-generation lithium recovery technology from lab to market. Company Description EELI Technology is a mining technology startup based at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab, developing Advanced Lithium Recovery solutions to help secure America’s clean energy future. Our proprietary electrochemical process makes domestic lithium production viable from ultra-low-grade sources—cheaper, faster, and cleaner. About the Role This is a
full-time, on-site role
in
Berkeley, CA . As a Founding Engineer, you’ll join our core technical team and lead development of our electrochemical systems for next-generation mineral and lithium extraction. You’ll play a key role in scaling EELI’s breakthrough technology from lab-scale to pilot deployment and help shape the future of lithium supply. Day-to-day tasks will include conducting laboratory experiments, analyzing electrochemical data, collaborating with cross-functional teams to scale processes, and ensuring compliance with environmental and safety standards. What You’ll Do Design and advance electrochemical systems for mineral and lithium recovery, ranging from benchtop prototypes to scalable platforms. Lead and own hands-on laboratory and pilot-scale experimentation, including setup, execution, data collection, troubleshooting, and iterative improvement. Develop, test, and refine hardware interfaces, applying real-world electrochemical principles in high-salinity environments. Collaborate with cross-disciplinary teams to connect core electrochemical modules with upstream and downstream processes for deployment. Contribute to strategy and knowledge building, including intellectual property, technical documentation, and technology transfer as we move from lab to field. Qualifications PhD or MS + 3+ years, or BS + 8+ years of hands-on experimental experience in electrochemistry, electrochemical engineering, or closely related fields. Proven ability to design, build, and troubleshoot electrochemical systems—you’re comfortable with tools, test rigs, lab hardware, and flow setups. Strong working knowledge of electrochemical techniques (e.g., CV, EIS) and practical experience analyzing real-world electrochemical data. Experience working with membranes, electrodes, or flow cells in high-salinity or chemically complex environments. Startup mindset: You thrive in the lab, embrace iteration, and enjoy solving hard problems through experimentation. Compensation Competitive startup package including salary and meaningful equity.
