Process Development Engineer
Reports To: Head of Engineering
About Us:
RepAir is a pioneering startup specializing in electrochemical CO capture technology and is currently advancing into the scale-up phase. Our technology is designed for gigaton-scale impact, positioning RepAir at the forefront of the shift toward a carbon-negative future. Delivering a highly efficient, sustainable carbon removal solution, our fully electric process requires minimal energy, operates without solvents, and produces no hazardous waste. As a fast-growing company, we are seeking an experienced and visionary Physicist or Mechanical/Chemical/Process Engineer to develop and commercialize our electrochemical carbon capture technologies.
Position Overview:
In this role you will be a key part of the process development activities for RepAir's electrochemical CO capture stack platform, translating experimental stack behavior into robust operating windows, system requirements, test methods, and engineering decisions. The role bridges hands-on stack experimentation, data analysis, instrumentation selection, system design input, vendor coordination, and cross-functional technical communication.
Key Responsibilities:
- Own ,Design, execute, and analyze experiments from test definition through operation, troubleshooting, data extraction, analysis, and reporting. to advance electrochemical stack performance.
- Develop and refine testing methodologies for evaluating materials, components, and system behavior.
- Convert experimental findings into practical engineering recommendations for Hardware, instrumentation, and system architecture.
- Conduct simulations (e.g., electrical, mechanical, thermal, and flow) to optimize stack operation and inform experimental design.
- Collaborate with engineers and scientists to bridge the gap between simulation and real-world performance.
- Collaborate with R&D, system engineering and Support scale-up from lab tests toward larger stack/system demonstrations by identifying technical risks, de-risking experiments, required sensors, control loops, and operational constraints.Prepare concise technical summaries, decision memos, requirement tables, and presentation materials for internal stakeholders, management, and external partners.
Qualifications:Education:
- BSc in Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Process Engineering, or a related field - Must.
- MSc/PhD - An advantage.
Experience & Skills:
- Strong background in experimental design, data analysis, and problem-solving in a technical setting.
- Hands-on experience designing, executing, and troubleshooting experiments in pilot-scale/industrial environments.
- Experience in process optimization and scale-up of complex engineering systems - An advantage.
- Proven ability to analyze multi-parameter datasets and extract actionable engineering insights (e.g., performance trends, failure modes, operating limits).
- Strong analytical thinking and ability to adapt to interdisciplinary challenges.
- Experience with electrochemical systems (e.g., fuel cells, electrolyzers, batteries) - Strong Advantage.
- Proficiency in numerical modeling and multi-physics simulations (e.g., CFD, FEA, electrochemical modeling) - An advantage.
- Excellent teamwork and communication skills.
- High level of ownership, initiative, and perseverance
