h3Senior Stack Scientist /h3pAbout EH Energy Engineering EH Energy develops fuel cell technology for heavy-duty mobility and large-scale stationary power. Our redesigned fuel cell is more compact, has higher power density and costs less to produce. We build high-performance, cost-effective fuel cell solutions to help address climate change and the move toward decentralised energy. As Senior Stack Scientist, you will own the scientific understanding of how our stacks perform and age. You will connect cell-level electrochemistry with stack-level design, operating conditions and manufacturing, and turn that understanding into stacks with higher power density, longer life and repeatable performance. /ph3Key Responsibilities /h3ulliLead stack-level performance and durability investigations, from short stacks to full-size stacks. /liliDefine and run stack test campaigns: polarisation, EIS, cell voltage monitoring, durability and accelerated stress tests under realistic duty cycles. /liliAnalyse water management, thermal behaviour, gas distribution and cell-to-cell uniformity, and identify what limits performance. /liliInvestigate stack degradation and failure modes, including post-mortem analysis, and lead root-cause work with the materials, process and design teams. /liliDevelop and validate stack models (electrochemical, thermal, fluidic) to guide design choices and operating strategies. /liliSet the operating windows, conditioning and break-in procedures, and the diagnostic methods used in development and production. /liliTranslate results into clear requirements for flow fields, bipolar plates, MEAs, sealing and compression. /liliMentor junior scientists and engineers, and present results to internal stakeholders and partners. /li /ulh3Skills and Experience Required /h3ulliPhD or MSc in electrochemistry, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, materials science, physics or a related field. /lili12+ years of experience in fuel cell stack development or testing (PEM preferred). /liliStrong grasp of stack physics: water and heat management, reactant distribution, contact resistance and compression. /liliHands-on experience with stack test benches, cell voltage monitoring, EIS and durability/AST protocols. /liliSolid understanding of MEA, GDL and bipolar plate degradation mechanisms. /liliExperience with modelling and data analysis tools (e.g. Python, MATLAB, COMSOL or similar). /liliAbility to turn complex data into clear, actionable recommendations. /liliTeam player who can also work autonomously in a fast-moving environment. /liliManagement experience. /liliEnglish is mandatory; French or German is a plus. /li /ulpStart date: Immediately /p #J-18808-Ljbffr
