Senior Electrolyte Scientist

About the Role

Anthro Energy is developing advanced electrolytes to enable safer, higher-performance lithium-ion batteries. We are seeking a Senior Electrolyte Scientist to lead electrolyte-focused R&D, from formulation design through electrochemical validation, in direct support of Anthro's product development efforts.

In this role, you will design and evaluate electrolyte systems, study their behavior in battery cells, and work closely with cell design and engineering teams to ensure electrolyte innovations translate into meaningful improvements in cell performance. Your work will play a critical role in moving ideas efficiently from the lab into validated battery cells.

Key Responsibilities

* Design, develop, and optimize lithium-ion battery electrolyte formulations to improve battery cell performance, including long term cyclability, high temperature stability, and safety.

* Perform electrochemical characterization and battery cell testing to evaluate electrolyte performance, understand degradation mechanisms, and guide formulation improvements.

* Investigate electrolyte-electrode interactions and interphase formation, using electrochemical and analytical techniques to identify failure modes and stability limits.

* Generate high-quality, reproducible experimental data with clear documentation to support data-driven decision-making and ongoing product development.

* Collaborate closely with cell design and engineering teams to align electrolyte development with cell-level performance requirements.

* Support translation of lab-scale electrolyte formulations into scalable, manufacturable solutions as programs advance.

* Document technical findings and contribute to Anthro's intellectual property portfolio through the invention of disclosures.
