Senior Application Engineer

Description

• Develop models/simulations for AirJoule systems, interactions with environments, and AirJoule adsorption subcomponents. Software such as ASPEN, Matlab, COMSOL, DWSIM, Solidworks, etc… may be utilized.
• Lead deployments of AirJoule systems at customer sites, including travel to customer sites, planning and coordination of deployment events, commissioning of said systems, and analysis of the resulting data.
• Lead efforts to design and implement supporting infrastructure for AirJoule prototypes, such as power sources, heat exchangers, communications systems, and transportation containers.
• Document experimental results in the form of PowerPoint presentations, technical report documents, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and electronic laboratory notebook (ELN) entries.
• Work with the Applications Engineering Team to design testing campaigns with Design-of-Experiment methods, execute them with sufficient experimental rigor, compile and communicate results.
• Train new employees in the responsibilities listed herein and similar work.
• Coordinate efforts between the Applications Engineering and Design Engineering teams in order to optimize AirJoule sorption systems. This will include optimization of geometry, sizing, flowpath, adsorption kinetics as it pertains to AirJoule adsorbent-coated heat exchangers.
• Drive forward applications of AirJoule system, especially working towards real world deployments
• Uphold a safe, respectful, collaborative, inclusive, and appreciative team environment.

Requirements
