ABOUT UStozero is Europe’s leading deep-tech startup specializing in the recycling of
lithium-ion batteries. Committed to accelerating decarbonization and transforming
the material life cycle, we’re actively crafting sustainable recycling solutions for a
cleaner and more innovative future.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FORWe are looking for a Senior Process Engineer to take a leading technical role in the
design, scale-up, commissioning and ramp up of our battery recycling processes.
This role sits at the intersection of technology development, process engineering,
and industrial scale-up. You will translate experimental and operational data into
robust process designs, challenge engineering assumptions, and ensure that our
future plants are built on solid fundamentals.
Your focus will be on the processes that matter most to our technology — graphite
and lithium extraction. By working closely with R&D, Operations and external
engineering partners, you will actively lead and engage in activities associated with:
a) engineering design; b) commissioning and ramp up; c) process development.
We are looking for someone who is comfortable working in a production
environment, but who can also take a step back and understand what the data is
telling us, and engineer the process we need at different scales.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECTMust Have's:
1. Future Plant Design & Scale-up
● Own key process design activities for our next-generation plants.
● Develop and review PFDs, P&IDs, mass and energy balances, process
descriptions and equipment specifications for future capacity expansions.
● Translate pilot and industrial operating data into reliable engineering design
criteria and scale-up assumptions.
● Perform process calculations and equipment sizing to ensure our future
plants are designed based on validated engineer
