• Do you like to invent and develop high tech?, • Are you hands-on engineer?, • Are you prepared to get stuck in and be part of small but growing team? More about you: You have spent your career at the hardest end of manufacturing, where separate systems need to be improved, and then brought together into something bigger, which has never existed before. You understand special purpose machinery and complex system integration from the ground up. You have taken individual production systems, developed them to the level they need to reach, and integrated them into a single, functional production machine. You are not a ‘’desk person’’ – you are practically minded and can work alone or as part of a team.

INITION has developed a patented technology that changes how battery electrodes are made. You will take our proprietary production system through its next critical engineering phase-solving complex technical challenges and scaling it to full commercial readiness.

You will be the founding Head of Mechanical Engineering for a capability that does not yet exist anywhere in the world at commercial scale. The Role: Lead of mechanical engineering This is a builder-leader role for a senior engineer who has developed separate production systems to their full potential and integrated them into a single, functional production machine.

Key Responsibilities • Take full technical ownership of delivering INITION's first pilot proprietary 3D electrode production system, • Take technical ownership of INITION's separate production systems, improving each to the level required and integrating them into a single, functional prototype electrode production machine, • Define and drive the engineering roadmap from current development stage through to a robust, commercially viable production system, • Apply rigorous engineering discipline across mechanical design, process control, automation, and systems integration, • Work hands-on alongside the team - presence in the workshop building and testing your vision with the team. Building the Engineering Team, Founding Responsibility • Define INITION's production engineering function from the ground up: structure, roles, tools, standards, and culture with the founders, • Recruit and onboard hands-on engineers capable of working at the frontier of a novel production technology, • Establish the engineering processes and documentation practices that will scale with the company through each commercialisation phase, • Be the kind of technical leader that exceptional engineers want to follow - credible, hands-on, and invested in their growth Materials & Process Integration • Work at the interface of mechanical engineering and materials science - understanding how production process decisions affect electrode structure and performance, • Collaborate with the electrochemistry team to ensure the production system consistently delivers against performance targets, • Ensure machine development and materials science advance in lockstep IP & Technical Governance • Protect and strengthen INITION's patent position throughout the engineering development process — the production system is the IP, • Work with IP counsel to ensure all engineering decisions reinforce the company's proprietary position, • Maintain rigorous technical documentation to support investor due diligence and future commercial discussions What We're Looking For Essential • Around 10 years of experience demonstrable to take this position., • Proven track record of improving separate production systems and integrating them into a single, functional special purpose machine - you have done both the subsystem development and the whole-system integration work, • Strong engineering foundation across machine design, process control, automation, and systems integration, • Experience building or leading an engineering team, ideally in a startup, scale-up, or advanced manufacturing environment, • Hands-on and technically authoritative Sufficient understanding of materials processing to work at the interface of machine development, performance and production output, • Rigorous approach to engineering documentation, IP, and technical governance You May Come From We are not looking for a specific industry background.
