Staff Polymer Chemist
Anthro Energy is pioneering a next-generation polymer electrolyte platform to enable safer, higher-energy-density lithium-ion batteries and novel battery form-factors. We are seeking an experienced polymer R&D innovator to develop new value propositions and applications for our Proteus™ electrolyte technology. In this hands-on experimental role, you will lead efforts to synthesize and develop new polymer chemistries, formulations, and polymerization processes, demonstrating performance advances in proof-of-concept experiments and prototypes.
You will work at the intersection of fundamental polymer science and applied battery development, partnering closely with Cell engineering, Manufacturing, and Electrolyte teams to advance our scientific understanding of polymer electrolyte design, develop next-generation product concepts, and translate innovations into manufacturable commercial applications.
Responsibilities
- Develop new polymer synthesis processes in-house to address novel electrolyte value propositions around battery safety and manufacturability. Design experiments to demonstrate new performance concepts.
- Translate high level project goals into a strategic experimental plan, and execute on it through high-quality experiments. Communicate planning and results to internal and external stakeholders to support internal process development, IP development, grant proposals, and custo
